AceShowbiz – The long-anticipated exploration of Mexico in Red Dead Redemption 2 is set to become a reality, thanks to a passionate group of fans. A significant upcoming modification, titled Nuevo Paraíso, will unlock the Mexico map, enabling players to navigate the region. User zoyser shared details on the RDR2 Reddit page, indicating that the mod will serve as a substantial addition to the game, featuring new missions, settlements, and comprehensive world integration.
The development team behind Nuevo Paraíso – The Forgotten Frontier has announced that the mod is set in 1907 and will include reconstructed versions of towns like Chuparosa. Additionally, the mod will introduce distinct vegetation and NPC behaviors, side missions, and various other locations, offering content comparable to a downloadable content (DLC) expansion. The timeline aligns closely with the events of Red Dead Redemption 2, ensuring continuity with the original game.
While the mod is still under development and lacks a specific release date, fans are eagerly anticipating its debut on Nexus Mods. Currently, it is planned exclusively for PC, but a full trailer is available for viewing online. This Mexico mod is not the first of its kind; fans have previously discovered ways to glitch into Mexico and have released modifications that allow players to access certain areas of the country. However, Nuevo Paraíso appears to be the most extensive effort to date, utilizing the Red Dead Redemption 1 Mexico map to craft a rich and immersive experience.
With Rockstar unlikely to produce an official Mexico DLC, these fan-created mods represent the next best alternative. By leveraging the Red Dead Redemption 1 Mexico map, Nuevo Paraíso promises numerous settlements and side missions, as well as NPCs and unique flora and fauna. There is much to look forward to, and fans hope the Nuevo Paraíso expansion for Red Dead Redemption 2 will be released soon.
