Skip the boring snowy opening and go directly to the second chapter of the game

Chapter 2 starts archiving

🎮 **Start the second chapter of the game experience directly! **

This save file allows you to skip the snowy opening of Chapter 1 of Red Dead Redemption 2 and start directly from Chapter 2.

✨ Archive Features

  • ✅ Minimum completion level, only complete the main introduction content
  • ✅ Basically a brand new game start
  • ✅ BONUS: Unlocked Micah's Revolver from Camp O'Driscoll

📂 Installation method

  • Navigate to your RDR2 archive folder:

`C:\Users\\Documents\Rockstar Games\Red Dead Redemption 2\Profiles\`

  • Place the downloaded file into this folder (the archive file is named "SRDR.....")
  • If you need to avoid overwriting an existing archive, you can change the file name: just change the last 0 to another unused number
  • After entering the game, load this save file like any other save file.

🚀 **Start your western adventure now without the long opening wait! **

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
