Wild-West Wildness: Watch Arthur Mesmerize a Lion in Hilarious Red Dead Redemption 2 Clip

Highlights

Red Dead Redemption 2 player brings a lion indoors for playtime, resulting in a hilarious and stressful encounter.

The lion in the game is an extremely lethal entity, with the ability to swiftly eliminate the player. In order to come across the lion naturally during gameplay, the player resorted to utilizing a mod to introduce it into their hide-and-seek area.

A Red Dead Redemption 2 player recently came up with a bold plan to have Arthur engage in some indoor "playtime" with a lion. This daring idea led to some incredibly amusing outcomes, contributing to the already extensive collection of memorable Red Dead Redemption 2 video clips found online.

As the five-year anniversary of Red Dead Redemption 2's highly acclaimed release approaches on October 26, it remains a single-player experience cherished by fans who continue to revisit it. Although Red Dead Online didn't reach the same level of popularity as GTA Online, the game's standalone component has become an instant classic.

The demographic also includes Reddit user Swimming-Confusion58, who recently caused a stir by bringing a lion into a house for entertainment. This resulted in a tense game resembling catch and hide-and-seek, with the lion not being particularly interested in hiding. The video footage shows Arthur carefully moving through all the rooms on the first floor of the cabin, with the lion reluctantly following along. The clip ends just as the lion catches up with Arthur, leaving viewers to imagine the outcome of this risky stunt in Red Dead Redemption 2.

While Red Dead Redemption 2 offers a variety of dangerous legendary animals to challenge players, the lion stands out as one of the most deadly creatures in the game. Its ability to instantly kill Arthur is shared only by the Legendary Giaguaro Panther. Therefore, fans should avoid encounters with the lion indoors, unless they are as "bored" as Swimming-Confusion58 claimed to be when inviting the king of beasts for some entertainment.

Getting a house call from the lion in Red Dead Redemption 2 is highly unlikely as it can only be encountered once during gameplay at Emerald Ranch in The Heartlands. It is extremely difficult to lure the lion into nearby cabins.

To bypass this limitation, a daring player decided to use a "menu mod" to spawn the lion in their chosen hide-and-seek area. There are several mods available for Red Dead Redemption 2 that serve this purpose, with the Ozark Mod Menu being one of the most popular choices. However, PC players who are not interested in Ozark's extensive functionality and simply want to enjoy playing with the game's deadliest predators may prefer a spawning mod instead.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
