Do Challenges Carry Over from Arthur to John?
In the critically acclaimed open-world western game, Red Dead Redemption 2, players take on the roles of Arthur Morgan and later, John Marston. As players progress through the game, they complete various challenges and activities that provide rewards and benefits. The question on many players’ minds is: do these challenges carry over from Arthur to John?
Direct Answer
Yes, some of the challenges do carry over from Arthur to John, but not all of them. According to the game’s developers, Rockstar Games, some of Arthur’s progress and achievements do transfer to John, including:
- Known recipes: Arthur’s cooking recipes are retained by John.
- Completed challenges: Some of the challenges and activities completed by Arthur will be available for John to complete as well.
- Talismans and trinkets: John will inherit some of Arthur’s talismans and trinkets.
- Documents: Arthur’s documents and collectibles will be available for John to collect.
However, not all challenges and achievements will carry over. John’s progress and achievements are separate from Arthur’s, and some challenges may need to be completed again to unlock rewards.
Transferable Challenges
The following challenges are transferable from Arthur to John:
| Challenge | Description |
|---|---|
| Hunting: Hunting challenges completed by Arthur will be available for John to complete as well. | |
| Fishing: Fishing challenges completed by Arthur will be available for John to complete as well. | |
| Cooking: Cooking recipes learned by Arthur will be available for John to use. | |
| Horseback riding: Horseback riding skills and abilities learned by Arthur will be available for John to use. |
Non-Transferable Challenges

| Stealth: Stealth skills and abilities learned by Arthur will not be available for John to use. | |
| Riding: Riding skills and abilities learned by Arthur will not be available for John to use. |
What Happens to Arthur’s Progress?
When Arthur dies, his progress is reset, and John must start from scratch. This means that any progress made by Arthur, including completed challenges, will not be available for John to continue. However, as mentioned earlier, some of Arthur’s achievements and progress will transfer to John, including known recipes, completed challenges, talismans, and trinkets.
Conclusion
In conclusion, while some challenges do carry over from Arthur to John, not all of them do. Players who completed challenges and activities with Arthur will need to start over with John, but they will retain some of Arthur’s progress and achievements. Understanding what challenges are transferable and what are not will help players plan their gameplay and make the most of their experience in Red Dead Redemption 2.
