As the release date of Red Dead Redemption 2 inches ever closer, today Rockstar is unveiling the cast of supporting characters poised to populate the tumultuous world of the Western adventure title. Via an ongoing series of tweets on Rockstar’s twitter account, each character is being assigned a portrait shot, revealing quote, and of course a name.
At the time of writing, nineteen characters have been revealed, several forming part of the notorious van der Linde gang. A number of them are recognizable from the various trailers, teasers, and gameplay demos leading up to today’s news, while we are getting our first glimpse of others. We finally get to match names to the faces. We have:
Head of the gang, Dutch van der Linde
The stern looking, gun toting elderly Hosea Matthews
Fan-wielding starlet, Molly O’Shea
The no nonsense Susan Grimshaw
Metal cleaver in hand, Pearson
The man with the diabolical stare, Micah Bell
The rugged Charles Smith
Mackintosh sporting Bill Williamson
The learned Leopold Strauss
Protagonist from Red Dead Redemption, John Marston
Femme fatale Abigail Roberts
Marston’s son, Jack Marston
Badass outlaw Karen Jones
The suave Javier Escuella
The matronly Tilly Jackson
In need of a good, long clean, Uncle
Bookworm Mary-Beth Gaskill

The romantic Josiah Trelawny
Given the frequency of the tweets, more characters are set to feature in the coming hours. If you are already hyped for Red Dead Redemption 2, these character portraits should do the trick. Red Dead Redemption 2 is scheduled for release on October 26th for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
