Captain Price from Call of Duty has been recreated in Red Dead Redemption 2 using mods, showcasing the creativity of the game's modding community.
The faithful depiction features Price with his notable bushy beard and a cowboy hat that closely resembles his iconic boonie hat, seamlessly immersing him into the authentic wild west realm of Red Dead Redemption 2. Moreover, players have the option to effortlessly take on the role of Price by downloading and playing as him, complete with the game's distinct Dead Eye ability. This addition adds an enjoyable and intriguing element to the overall gameplay experience.
A resourceful gamer has successfully recreated the beloved character Captain Price from the immensely popular Call of Duty series within the realm of Red Dead Redemption 2 by using mods. Although Rockstar Games has ceased extensive support for Red Dead Online since the previous summer, Red Dead Redemption 2 remains fully playable and is home to a small yet dedicated modding community.
Considered by many as one of the most iconic figures in the Call of Duty franchise alongside Ghost and Frank Woods from Black Ops, Captain John Price was initially introduced in 2007 through Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. This groundbreaking game not only revolutionized the first-person shooter genre but also propelled Call of Duty into the mainstream. Notably, Price, as the leader of Bravo Team, played a significant role in the Modern Warfare reboot series and even graced the cover of the game's 2019 edition. Furthermore, Price will be prominently featured on the cover of this year's release, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, only one year after the release of Modern Warfare 2.
A player has brought Captain Price into the world of Red Dead Redemption 2 in a remarkable recreation shared on Reddit by TheKey32. The three images showcase an astonishingly accurate portrayal of Captain Price, complete with his iconic boonie hat, bushy mutton chop beard, and even a cowboy hat that mimics the original. Price seamlessly integrates into the Wild West setting of Red Dead Redemption.
In the third photo, TheKey32 takes the recreation to the next level by replicating Captain Price's pose from the cover art of 2019's Modern Warfare, holding an M16 assault rifle. While this weapon is not typically available in Red Dead Redemption 2, TheKey32 clarified that it was added as a mod and functions as a fully automatic firearm. The post also mentions that TheKey32 has made the Price character mod available for download, allowing players to play as Price or spawn him as a non-player character (NPC). Notably, Price even possesses the iconic Dead Eye ability from Red Dead Redemption 2, which grants the player the ability to slow down time and mark targets.
With the highly anticipated release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on November 10, fans can look forward to discovering the next chapter in the revitalized Modern Warfare storyline, featuring Captain Price and his crew. Meanwhile, it is truly exciting to witness the continued presence of a creative community of modders in Red Dead Redemption 2, even though Rockstar's support for the game has ceased. However, it is unfortunate that the focus may shift towards the impending release of Grand Theft Auto 6, potentially delaying any significant updates for Red Dead Online until a possible Red Dead Redemption 3. Currently, players can enjoy Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One platforms.
