How to unlock cheats with newspapers in Red Dead Redemption 2
Some cheats in RDR2 require you to buy newspapers and have already progressed to a particular chapter in the story. So when you try to enter those locked cheats before, the game will give you an error message saying that you don’t meet the prerequisites to unlocking this cheat.
Where to buy newspapers in Red Dead Redemption 2?
There are 3 types of different newspapers in RDR2. New newspapers are released throughout the story.
The best places to purchase newspapers in RDR2:
