Genderswapped 'Red Dead Redemption 2' Characters Are Incredible And Terrifying

Uncle as an Auntie made us want to cry.

There is something about Rockstar games that makes some people just want to mess with them right? I mean look at the whole world of GTA role-play, for example, feels like a lot of modders and players just wanted to mess with the content that Rockstar Games provided them - and it's excellent.

In this case, however, fans have finally gotten round to messing with the appearances of the Red Dead Redemption 2 cast and oh man, oh man, you're in for a ride. On Reddit, user duplica1t has posted a bunch of pictures of them tinkering with the genders of the Red Dead cast and let's just say that Uncle should stay exactly the way he is thank you very much.

Here are some of our favourite Red Dead Redemption 2 wins and fails...

The photo compilation has some really high highs and some really very low lows. Though some, if not all, are pretty accurate to the men being woman and vice versa, there are some things that are better left unseen - like Micah as a woman.

Saying that I'll admit I definitely have a thing for Sadie as a man - Sammy perhaps? But she looks great and I'd happily go on some sort of cowboy date with her. And in a strange way, Dutch as a woman is very handsome too. I can see her in a Tarantino film as the badass female hero that saves the protagonist's life a couple of times here and there.


The comments, of course, are pretty wild. A lot of laughs to be had as players reflect on a very strange version of the game they all know and love. Well at least we know Rockstar made the right call with shipping the game as it was rather than taking duplica1t's advice eh?
