A Red Dead Redemption fan has created a short film about Arthur Morgan, featuring scenes from the game and a Led Zeppelin soundtrack.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the greatest games ever made, and while the open-world was a big part of that success, it has to be said Arthur Morgan is one of the biggest reasons it was so good too.
Check out Red Dead Redemption 2 below.

Rockstar Games has always been great at crafting loveable protagonists, though I don’t think anyone expected to fall for Arthur Morgan the way we did, especially as he was filling in some pretty big shoes left by John Marston in the first game.
His winning personality makes it all the more sad that he won’t be returning for Red Dead Redemption 3, though that hasn't stopped fans from creating new projects starring one of the best video game protagonists of all time.
Content creator Captain Punch has condensed over 50 hours of playtime into a nearly 40 minute film showcasing some of Arthur’s best moments, and it’s got a kickass soundtrack too.
It’s titled Red Zeppelin and you can watch the whole thing on YouTube right now, though if you haven’t played the game and don’t want to get spoiled before you do, maybe hold off for a bit.
If you have played the game and fancy playing it again after watching the YouTube video, perhaps you’d be interested to know there’s a mod you can download right now that cuts out one of the game’s most annoying segments.
As for Arthur Morgan, it’s pretty clear that Rockstar Games won’t be bringing him back for Red Dead Redemption 3, at least not as a protagonist, though his actor Roger Clark did recently reprise his role for an audiobook about the history of the Wild West.
