In Red Dead Redemption 2, Side quests are titled as Stranger quests which are optional and won’t pop up on your map by themselves in this game. You will see a question mark and a white patch as you keep getting closer and as you keep moving towards the exact location. You will be able to access them and it is entirely upto you if you wish to do so, but if you ask us, we’d highly recommend you finish the game entirely with everything to get the ultimate experience and for that purpose we’ve compiled a list of Stranger quests for you.
