Trailers and quotes

The two official trailers released by Rockstar show Jason and Lucia together throughout much of the footage. In the first trailer, Lucia says, “The only way we’re going to get through this is by sticking together.”

Both trailers focus on the pair working as a team, and they include short scenes that establish the characters and setting. The second trailer was released alongside the character profiles on Rockstar’s site.

Soundtrack choices

Each trailer is accompanied by a licensed song. The first trailer features Tom Petty’s “Love Is a Long Road”, and the second trailer features The Pointer Sisters’ “Hot Together.” You can view the lyrics on the linked pages for each song.

More specifically, see the Tom Petty lyrics on this page and The Pointer Sisters’ lyrics on this page.

Character profiles on Rockstar’s site

Rockstar’s official site includes short profiles for both characters. The Lucia profile appears on Rockstar’s site, and the page includes the wording quoted below.

You can read Lucia’s profile on the official site at Rockstar’s Lucia page.

The site text includes the following quotes about the characters:

• On Jason: “Meeting Lucia could be the best or worst thing to ever happen to him. Jason knows how he’d like it to turn out but right now, it’s hard to tell.”
• On Lucia: “A life with Jason could be her way out.”

Red Dead Redemption 2 honor system — what it was

For context, Rockstar Games implemented an honor system in Red Dead Redemption 2. That system tracked player behavior with an unseen metric called “honor,” and it affected how NPCs reacted to the player and certain in-game prices and options.

Concretely, in Red Dead Redemption 2:

• Positive actions — such as helping civilians, donating to camp, or paying bounties — increased honor and could change NPC greetings and access to discounts.
• Negative actions — such as killing civilians or mistreating animals — lowered honor and could change NPC behavior, increase hostility, and alter rewards from certain encounters.
• The honor metric influenced the *tone* of the game and some outcomes, although the main storyline progressed regardless of honor level.

Release information
