Every great sandbox or open-world video game lets you customize your main character. This applies to games such as Final Fantasy XIV, Guild Wars 2, or World of Warcraft. However, in RDR 2 you, as an online character creator, have tons of options available.
Telling the story of Arthur Morgan, Rockstar Games has brought to us this incredible game set in the Wild West.

Thanks to the developers, you will be able to set your own outlaw through the Red Dead Redemption 2 Character Creation Menu . This is one of the most incredible features we have seen in this game, which is why we are going to describe it in this post.
