While 1969’s Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid may not be entirely historically accurate, it didn’t stop Rockstar Games from basing Red Dead Redemption 2’s Dutch van der Linde and his gang on the real-life Butch Cassidy and his Wild Bunch. In fact, Rockstar took several influences throughout the game. Watch as we take a look at the real history of Red Dead Redemption 2.

The Real History is a series of videos about historical video games, examining the true events that inspired them. Whether it's set in the 13th century, the 1990s, or an alternate reality, each game has a unique aspect based on or inspired by true historical events, and I'll try to examine these in an educational and entertaining format.
