Red Dead Redemption 2 | ♫ Relaxing ambient music compilation playlist

A compilation of ambient/relaxing tracks from the game Red Dead Redemption 2. Including music that plays during cutscenes, missions, free roam and stranger missions. Most of featured tracks are gamerip, therefore not found in the official soundtrack.
"Life's greatest adventure is in doing one's level best.”- Arthur Morgan
In my opinion an excellent game centering around the theme of change, with a very memorable soundtrack, my personal favorite being "fleeting joy" which is not included in this playlist, as it is the opposite of relaxing and ambient.

I’ve recently revisited RDR2 3 years later for my 2nd play through. I wanted to recapture the magic I experienced in my first play through and man.. it even exceeded that. I’m able to pace myself now to enjoy even the smallest of things. RDR2 doesn’t feel like a game to me.. it feels like I’m living another life. The life of Arthur Morgan. It’s an experience. From walking around camp and interacting with each gang member, the random encounters in the world, enjoying the scenery, exploring locations, getting yourself into trouble, helping others, the decisions and choices… no other game does this. RDR2 deserves way more praise than what it gets.. this was a gem that other games need to look up to. The immersion is insane and the fact that it’s an experience that keeps on giving if you play it correctly is just so mind blowing. This is probably one of the only games that I can say that it was worth every single dollar and then some. When you 100% it you just want it to keep going.. this is hands down my favorite game of all time. This has changed the way I look at games and after playing this it’s been harder for me to enjoy other games because they don’t feel as deep and immersive. It kind of sucks because I want to thoroughly enjoy games .. but it shows how awesome RDR2 is.

[@peapea412]

This comment is amazing and so very true! A few days ago while playing RDR2 online, I kind of just took a chance to just rest by my camp's fire with my horse, Cripps, and just cooking off a pot of coffee and some food. Just me, the horse, the night sky, the wilderness, and the chiming sounds of Cripps playing his harmonica in the background. Gave me just a moment of peace and relaxation, and I just sat there by the fire and stayed listening for a while. It's a great game, and it takes you to another world. Literally.

Red Dead Redemption, man... what a story. From Arthur Morgan to John Marston. I so badly want the narrative of these games to be made into a TV show. I know it could never live up to the experience of the games, but my dad doesn't play or have an interest in gaming, and so a tv show would be the only way for him to experience this story, and I know for a fact he would love it. I'm the only person in my family and amongst my friends that plays games, and so there is a strange indescribable feeling I get when I finish an incredible story like RDR2, knowing that my closest friends and family will never experience or understand it, despite it moving me in such deep ways.

[@tacthescribbler772]

This is how I feel! My dad used to ride around in RDR1, but I don't think he ever played the story. He doesn't handle complex gameplay super well, so racing cars is more his thing normally. Plus, he always comes down on me for playing video games. He'd prefer his kids do something "productive," even if it means I'm writing my fantasy stories instead of gaming. But I *really* want him to see some of the things I've experienced. Video games aren't just a waste of time. I have some very strong friendships built on the games I've played with people online. I can hardly listen to the Halo soundtracks these days without being overcome by nostalgia. Some of the strongest bits of inspiration I've gotten for my stories have come from video games I've played. And sometimes, the characters I play become something/someone else when I turn them over in my mind. It's about what we take away from an experience, and I really wish I could get my dad to see how some of my video game experiences have genuinely helped me to be a better person. Even the ones that folks wouldn't expect.

The perfect video game. None even close. I'm 40, played since Atari and up. Nothing compares to the sheer perfection of the amazing music, world, story, and attention to every detail of RDR2.

[@joescaletta9665]

I love at 58:29 how you added more sound effects to that music, whenever i heard that ambient sound from the beginning of the game in the snowy mountains it always gives me the chills. That and the ambient sound at 1:02:55 are 2 of the most beautiful sounds i have ever heard in any game period. What a masterpiece RD2 was, Im forever grateful Of Rockstar for making such a masterpiece. RD2 will be remembered 100s of years from now and wont ever be forgotten im sure of it. 🙏🏻💕

[@mullemeck5015]

Are u sure he added more sfx?

[@Sefaj95]

Music is just great. Damn what kind of feelings. No one will understand what impact this game and this music gave me. Everytime I hear The melody from Unshaken… I have no words to describe it

[@tamar597]

This game is more than just leisure - it clears my mind and makes me happy. The nature, the views, the rought edges in the landscape and the people, the good, the bad, it all fills my heart.

[@shubharthidas5793]

This playlist has no replacement. It brings a sort of peace in my mind, it relaxes my body. It helps me to sleep no matter how stressed I am.

[@dexri7945]

Best game I have ever played. I have played it fully through 4 times on console and 3 on pc, did everything there is to do in the online mode, and it still feels so fresh to me. There is so much in the world of rdr2 to do, to explore. The music, setting, story, make for easily my most relaxed, emotional, and tense times in playing video games. Funny story, my grandpa sat down and watched me play rdr2 when I didn't know he was there for 2 hours, and when I turned around he saw me using a controller. He said "Wait, is this one of them video games?" I told him yes, and the face of shock he made is still so memorable, he had thought he was watching this exciting western movie with me, but almost cried at the fact it was all a video game. I asked him "Why are you crying?" He said that he had always read and watched old western stuff his whole life, and he used to play with old western toys that he passed on to me when I was little. He said the fact that such a realistic, dynamic world could be explored and interacted with at someone's own will was mind blowing for him. He also said he remembers watching my mom play pong and other Atari/Nintendo games, and that I reminded him of her and those memories. He then hugged me, and went to bed. That's what rdr2 is, a pinnacle in the advancement of media, specifically video games. After watching almost every western movie with my grandpa when I was a kid, I can understand why rdr2 really does feel like one of those, and that is what makes it so refreshing every time to play and why I will never turn down a replay of it.

52:37 Man... this is so sick. I mean, this is definitely like old west theme. Matched the vibe.

[@fayefayelou4093]

Beautiful mix for a beautiful game. ❤️ Before I met my husband, I never knew video games could be good, could tell a story. Now, I have so many more stories full of life and wonderful characters to revisit over and over again with the man of my dreams. ❤️ Thank you for sharing this with us!

[@shadowwarrior7302]

Yes this is probably one of the best games I've played in all my years of playing. It was so captivating, and reach deep into my soul allowing me to feel as if I was physically next to Arthur as he died 💔 😔 😞 😪

Its something about Blessed are the Peace makers (0:39). It just sets the tone so perfectly

[@letheanlove]

That last song triggers tears. Every time.

[@hoxseptem4073]

"He was a-" John is taken a back. "-a temporary moral guide for me." He continues. "A compass that showed me, my family and many others out of Dutch's delusion, and false idea of paradise." John leans forward in the chair, closer to the author. "Arthur Morgan is the reason why I'm still here, the reason why my family is still here, the reason why I have a home- and a life I can live _almost_ freely." 'Interesting, Mr. Morgan sounds more a saint than a sinner if you ask me.' The author remarks. "Yeah," John chuckles "He weren't the man you saw on those wanted posters, deep down Arthur was so much more than the criminal many saw him to be, in his final days he saved and aided many people who were in dire need-" He sits back slightly, and tilts his head down. "Arthur Morgan wasn't perfect, but he sure as hell tried." John rubs his left shoulder with his right hand and sighs, speechless and lost in thought. 'Anyhow, I must get going, my train will be here soon enough- I'm headed up north to meet someone else,' The author got up and turned to the door. John snapped out of his trance, thinking of the events that had transpired in 1899. "You said you were meeting someone up north, huh?" John questioned, suddenly. 'Why ofcourse.' The author quickly replied. "Who are they?" John questioned again. 'A certain Charles Smith, he wrote to me telling me of his vast knowledge of Arthur, by the sound of it- it may even be as extensive as yours.' The author chuckles and pulls out a pipe, lighting it and shoving a trilby onto his head, he heads towards the front door. "Strange times. See you whenever- partner." John regressed as he sipped a cup of coffee. 'Fare-thee-well, Jim Milton.' He opens the door and leaves, walking into the evening rain. "Strange times indeed." A gruff American voice jests from behind.

[@Lord_Beans]

This is, by far, the most amazing work of art I have ever had the privilege to experience. Red Dead Redemption 2 is just perfect in every way possible. The music is beautiful, the characters are memorable, the environments are peaceful, the story is among the greats of storytellers. I couldn't ask for anything else in a videogame. Never have I ever felt like I entered another world entirely while playing a game such as this.

[@synaz1263]

I showed my dad this game and he loved it so much he got it on his LAPTOP and now plays it almost any night he can amazing

[@WoLFiLoLoL973]

There's no good story without a good soundtrack, and this game delivered.

[@averyfossett]

I wish I could experience this game for the first time all over again. I was blown away and I still am honestly. My favorite game of all time

[@tonttu7979]

Roanoke ridge ambiance is honestly some of my favourite music in gaming, i love the haunting yet beautiful atmosphere it creates in the game and have used it as background music when i go to the woods irl too

[@mullemeck5015]

[@rafaeld.2554]

THE MUSICIANS WHO WROTE THIS .... simple genius.... We forget this sometimes... The Phenomenal heads who compose the game soundtracks, like the master-piece-mother of all game sountracks (for me) Tristram Theme in Diablo 1 ! Hail Music !!

[@aylee_b]

Half a year after completing the game, few seconds of the final song is still enough to make me cry

[@juliofox8925]

The transition between "Mrs. Sadie Adler, widow" and "Unshaken" is flawless, great editing btw

[@FearTheBeardJP]

Mrs. Sadie Adler going into unshaken is perfect. I could listen to that on repeat for hours

[@Archives0310]

i wonder where this instrumental is from. couldn't find it on entire youtube and don't remember instrumental unshaken in the game or on official OST releases.

[@Unb3atable]

I am 267 years old and this game is by far the best game I have ever played, I've been playing games since the womb

Im 2024 yrs old and can say rdr2 is the best thing next to Christs resurrection

you wouldn't happen to be born on December 25 would you

[@Aunindya]

unshaken seems so good, in instrumental version. Just gives different vibes

[@user-di1vr9st6m]

I'm 36 but my gamer biography is huge. I have some favorite games, some games that i can call great but only RDR2 i can call - the best game ever made. Every component of this game is outstandin, we can see it by the soundtrack for example. I can't understand how Rockstar made this game. 5 years past from release and still no game get close to this visual, technical, directing details.

[@SpaceBandit666]

Thank you SO much for this playlist, bout time someone made a compilation!

[@DeutscherPatrick]

Im nearly 2091 years old and played all Games that exist since 69 before christus and I have to admit this is the best. Everything is perfect and this Game will Never be beaten and it’s impossible to be better and and and. It’s not a Game. It’s a living, breathing world in my ps5. It changed my long and boring Life. I still cry at songs that were used in this experience, which are the best songs ever made by geniuses far greater than Mozart. I will never forget Arthur. He was like a father to me and the best character created in entertainment history because he was a good man. He felt like a real person from which I never met one. I have a serious depression since I got born. His death made me cry for weeks because he was the only person I knew because I never left my room full of chips and flips. I miss him so much 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I wish all my friends and Family members were still alive so I can show them this masterpiece because they were huge western fans. I hope everyone on earth sees this comment to see how sad and boring my Life thats full of cowshit is. Thank you Rockstar

[@systummhanger8216]

the comment section, perfectly summarised.

[@warmblutdas9241]

Sad thing is - even this is just copycat shit. Good shit, but it wont get better and especialy is basicaly the same thing the ones you are joking about did.

I had to restart the whole game because i got busy with life and I'm glad i did this game is one of the best I've played in a while

[@thechest77]

I have never seen anything like this concept before. Arthur in this ambient moment. I'm mesmerized. Perfect.

Thanks so much, this is made much better than other rdr2 ambient music videos, and has helped me write my essay :D

I cannot thank you enough for this I have spent ages trying to find a playlist like this of ambient music from the game, rather than songs out with the game that have the same vibes. Thank you so much

[@jackzen4547]

Thanks for sneaking that last song in at the very end, almost brought me to tears while doing schoolwork. Thanks a lot

Its written by the artist Rhiannon Giddens, she does a lot of similarly great stuff.

This soundtrack always makes me remember in the summer of 2016, driving through the Yukon and Alaska alone on my way to Fairbanks (my final posting in the Army). Alien landscapes to me, vast emptiness like I didn't know still existed on earth, and heading into the complete unknown. It almost makes you feel helpless how vast it is. Some real wild west shit going on up there still. Ended up loving every minute.

[@adelinadarvina1575]
