The difference between the remastered and the original game is that there are no achievements for multiplayer here, as well as multiplayer too. You'll get most of the achievements on your way to 100% progress. But if you complete activities in random sequence, you will have to replay some of them again. Because some activities are unlocked at a specific stage of the game, or after completing another activity. In this guide, the sequence of playthroughs is in order to complete each activity 1 time. The first priority is to complete the story and then get 100% progress. After that you will have a few remaining achievements.

From the start of your playthrough, do the achievement of completing 20 story missions on a one horse. Do not hitch and let it die. Do a manual save after each mission, in case your horse dies - load. You can get on and ride other horses/wagons, important is that you do not hitch them up. For completing 20 missions on one horse you will get the achievement “Spurred To Victory”, this is the only one missable achievement in the game.
Do not clear the hideouts, do not play in side activities until you decide to unlock all the suits. Because for specific suits you need to complete activities in specific areas. And all hideouts must be cleared in one game day.

This guide is only a translation of this guide.

Pay attention to this achievement from the start, as it is almost impossible to kill your horse in the early missions.
Do not hitch and do not let it die. Do a manual save after each mission, in case your horse dies - load. You can mount and ride other horses/wagons, most important is don't hitching them up. This is the only one missable achievement in the game.

The peg should be between the left side of the horseshoe and your finger at the moment of aiming. After aiming, throw the horseshoe with a perfect throw.

After winning the duel, you can return to the playing table and continue playing, but there will be one less opponent. You can kill all opponents in a duel, leaving only one. But to achievement you need at least 3 players at the table.


It is played in Blackwater. It is important to have more than 3 players at the table. Make a save before doing this achievement. Place the highest bet. There is a chance that the other NPCs will also make the maximum bet. If you lose, load the save and so on until you complete the achievement.

If there are several opponents at the table, always keep in mind how many dice are left. If your opponent calls a number, the sum of which is higher than the total number of dice on the table - accuse him of bluffing. And so on until the last opponent is at the table, 1 vs. 1 is much easier to play.

If an animal doesn't spawn, then ride your horse farther away and come back again to make the animals spawn again. Skip time by saving and double-checking the animal spawn spots again. Some animals are more likely to be found at certain times of the day.
Rank 1: Coyote:

Rank 2: Deer:

Rank 3: Wolf:

Rank 4: Boar:

Armadillo:

Rank 2: Rabbits:

Rank 3: Coyotes:

Rank 6: In Armadillo, some of the NPCs wear large hats. They are the easiest to hit with a sniper rifle, the sheriff and his officers will not shoot at you if you hit the hat.

Rank 7: It is possible to kill the bear with one shot only by using the sniper rifle while activating Dead Eye ability.
Rank 9 and 10: Evans Repeating Rifle has a 22-round magazine. Kills with the Dead Eye ability do not use up the ammunition in the magazine.

  • Blackwater:
    • Mauser Pistol
    • Carcano Rifle
    • Evans Repeater
  • Escalera:
    • LeMat Revolver

For buying at least one rare weapon, you will get the “Exquisite Taste” achievement. But for 100% you need to buy all 5.


Safe houses

Purchase 13 safe houses. Some safe houses you get in the story, some you just rent (for 100% you only need to rent once), the rest you need to buy. There are more of these in the game than are required for the achievement. Specific safe houses need to be purchased for the achievement.



Locations maps

Explore all 94 locations. You don't have to ride around the game world and explore everything. You can buy a location map from merchants and activate it in your inventory. Merchants have them as you progress through the story. In each district, each merchant has a different map. You need to travel through all the merchants to buy all the location maps. For unlocking all 94 locations, you will get the achievement “On the Trail of de Vaca”.
⠀|⠀Bounty
Bounty hunting is another type of side quest. In any township, you must tear down the wanted poster and arrest the culprit. Only one poster can be active in a township at a time. Posters appear randomly, you can skip the time, so that a new poster appears. Posters do not appear immediately, they are placed by the NPC. After you skip the time wait until the NPC will place a poster of the wanted. For 100% you need to complete 20 bounty hunts:
  • New Austin - 8
  • Nuevo Paraiso - 8
  • West Elizabeth - 4
It doesn't matter in which township you are, contracts are taken all over the district out of 3 possible ones. After completing all contracts in a district - go to another and there in any township wait for a new contract to appear. After catching all criminals, posters with their search will start to appear again.
To fulfill a bounty hunting contract, you need to arrest the criminal and take him to jail, or kill him and collect evidence. Then return that evidence to the sheriff. It doesn't matter where you take down the poster or which jail you take the criminal to. Take the criminal to the nearest jail, not to the township where you picked up the poster. If you deliver the criminal to the prison alive, you will receive a double cash reward.
To unlock some suits you will need to deliver criminals to the prison alive. You can either deliver all of them alive at once, or not fulfill any of the contracts until you are about to unlock the suits.
For delivering the first criminal to the prison, you will receive the achievement “Clemency Pays”.
⠀|⠀Hideouts
There are a total of 8 hideouts in the game. For every 2 of them you will get 1 achievement. For 100% you need to clear all of them. But for the Marshal uniform you must clear them all in 1 game day. Clearing the hideouts can be replayed an endless. Don't waste your time to clear them individually, as you must clear them all in a game day. While completing this activity you will also get 3 achievements for clearing every other fort: “Austin Overpowered”, “Evil Spirits” and “Instinto Asesino”.

Head downstairs to the train station across the street and use the pardon letter. The train station is only open during the day.



⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Heading South On A White Broncoе

First you have to tame this horse, then you have to buy it. You will tame this horse in the stranger's quest "Love is the Opiate". After taming you can buy it in the store for 750$. In the inventory set the Hungarian half-breed as your main horse, only after that start to increase wanted the level.
⠀|⠀Challenges
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Axe Master

Rank 1: Buy tomahawk in the market in Manzanita Post for 10$ (it is better to always buy at maximum). Tomahawks for all subsequent challenges can only be bought there, other stores do not sell them.
Rank 2: Kill an enemy with a tomahawk throw, kill an enemy with a tomahawk throw from horseback, and kill an enemy with a tomahawk in close combat. Even though the tomahawk is equipped in the throwable slot, you can attack in melee as well.
Rank 3: It is easier to complete from some high place, because the range of tomahawk throw is very small. You can do it from a hillside on birds that are just starting to fly. Or from the roofs of houses in Blackwater.
Rank 4: It can be completed in any hideouts. Hideouts can be replayed endless.
Rank 5: Easier to do in Solomon's Folly, as you just need to get the wagon to Armadillo. It is not necessary to kill enemies.

Rank 2: The rifle deals damage through walls and objects. It can be done in any hideout.

To get US Marshal Uniform, you need just to clear 5 gang hideouts in the 24 hour in-game time period as Jack Marston: Fort Mercer, Gaptooth Breach, Pike's Basin, Tumbleweed, Twin Rocks. Just google for details. Please correct your guide.

Ok, I complete this task. I think its bug!
First of all- https://support.rockstargames.com/articles/200146346/Bandito-Bounty-not-counting-toward-Bandito-Oufit

Additionally: 1) I wore a Reyes rebel costume. 2) I checked that the poster says "Mexican bandito" and took it to work. 3) During the mission, which was located near Chuparos, I had a bug. I tied up the main bandit - but I didn't have a yellow marker in Chuparos for delivery. I was scared, however, when I reached Chuparosa without a fight, there was no marker near the prison to complete the mission.
4) Not far from the prison, I took the bandit off his horse, put him on the ground, untied him, and tied him up again. After that, the marker for completing the task appeared, I carried the bandit on foot and the task was completed
