Reddit user Felwinter_II recently discovered an unlockable scarecrow hat in Red Dead Redemption 2 that they never knew about before. And judging by the comments on the post, it seems many veteran Red Dead Redemption 2 players were also completely unaware of the hat. Luckily, anyone that wants to add Red Dead Redemption 2’s scarecrow hat to their collection should be able to do so with minimal hassle.

The Red Dead Redemption 2 scarecrow hat is located on a farm near Emerald Ranch. The scarecrow itself can be found poking up in the middle of a wheat field. To get the hat, Red Dead Redemption 2 players simply need to approach the scarecrow and shoot the hat off its head. Then adding it to one’s Red Dead Redemption 2 hat collection is as simple as picking it up off the ground.
If Red Dead Redemption 2 players are wearing the scarecrow hat while out and about, there’s a good chance they could get attacked and lose it. If that happens, Red Dead Redemption 2 players should note that they don’t have to travel all the way back to Emerald Ranch to get their hat back. On the contrary, getting one’s hat back in Red Dead Redemption 2 is as simple as calling for a horse.
Red Dead Redemption 2 horses have inventory that keep players various hat options handy. So in the event that Red Dead Redemption 2 players want to get their scarecrow hat back or want to switch to a different hat, they can do so with the help of their horse. It’s pretty convenient considering the alternative.
In any case, this scarecrow hat discovery is just yet another example of Red Dead Redemption 2 players making new discoveries in the game years after its release. While there were many people who already knew about the scarecrow hat, many more had no idea of its existence, even those who have played Red Dead Redemption 2 extensively. Those who have already played through the game may very well want to jump back in and see if they can make some new discoveries for themselves.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is out now for PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
