Red Dead Redemption 2 Collectibles: Seven Checklists
The seven story-mode collectible checklists available on this site, with counts and a tracker for each — 242 entries across 7 sets. These entries are not every collectible or collection quest in the game. See the separate Exotics, hunting requests and Jack Hall Gang treasure guides for other collection tasks.

Plan a collection trip
Pick a single set, open its location checklist and record each stop after you visit it. If you are hunting along the way, keep Pearson’s materials separate from quest carcasses and Trapper sales.

Choose a collection by your current goal
Finish Paying Respects
Use all nine grave locations after the story. Nearby stops are grouped into a regional route.
Finish a fish delivery
Check lures, catch status and mailing before setting out for another fishing spot.
Collect only what 100% needs
Separate the game's requirements from a personal goal of checking every item on this site.
Need only Arthur’s grave? Open the approach guide, then return to the shared nine-grave tracker to record the visit.
Which set should you do first?
Start with legendary fish
They need specific special lures, and buying the wrong one wastes a long ride. Open the legendary fish tracker.
Leave cigarette cards running in the background
Cards appear all over the world and in shops, so tick sets off as you go rather than hunting them in one push. See all 12 sets.
Quick answers
How many collectible sets does this RDR2 tracker cover?
It covers 7 live sets with 242 trackable entries, including legendary animals, legendary fish, dinosaur bones, dreamcatchers, cigarette cards, rock carvings and graves.
Do you need every RDR2 collectible for 100% completion?
No. Red Dead Redemption 2's Total Completion checklist asks for specific sets and partial compendium totals rather than every item in the game. Use the separate 100% checklist to avoid unnecessary collecting.
