Known as 'Cyberpunk 2077's' biggest fan, Angharad is a Welsh games writer who thrives in anything related to digital storytelling. If a video game explores the intricacies and horrors of womanhood, she is there.

Thanks to previous work at GAMINGbible, GameByte, The Loadout, Game Luster, Angharad has built a strong understanding of both the digital world and what fans want from it and is eager to share her thoughts and expertise with readers.

As an outlaw, your journey across 19th century America in Red Dead Redemption 2 will see you do whatever it takes to make that gold. Whether it is robbing banks or selling counterfeit items, money was as important then as it is now. However, with a gang to look after, crime sometimes has to take a back seat, but this free download will see you rake in the cash in a mod that aims to change Red Dead Redemption 2 completely.

Red Dead Redemption 2: Life Of Crime Is A Classic

Developed by CruelMasterMC, Life of Crime aims to completely revolutionize Red Dead Redemption 2 by allowing you to make your own character, and play along in a life of crime. Now, thanks to a skill tree, players will be able to upgrade their character as well as rank up, take part in a train heist, experience a new introduction, and even have access to a brand-new interaction menu.

The whole point of the mod is to play as a completely NEW character with all of your weapons and money being removed that is designed by you, NOT to play as Arthur or John. This is the whole point of the mod. And while you play on in the game, you can earn all the weapons by buying them from a gunsmith or finding them anywhere on the map, and earn more money from doing missions and such to pay for these things and many more things I plan on adding.

The mod will begin once you have created your character in the Saint Denis tailor, and after that, you will be able to embark on all the new content added to Red Dead Redemption 2 courtesy of the Life of Crime mod.

This Is The Mod To Tide You Over Till Red Dead Redemption 3

Adding heaps of new customisation to the game, Life of Crime will give you the perfect excuse to boot up Red Dead Redemption 2 once more. With Rockstar not having announced Red Dead Redemption 3 and the studio being hard at work on Grand Theft Auto VI, fans are eager to hear more about the adventures of John, Arthur, or whoever our brand-new protagonist may be. However, thanks to dedicated and talented fans, there is plenty of new content to keep us busy until then, especially if a life of crime is something you enjoyed throughout the events of Red Dead Redemption 2.
