A rough, raucous, hard-working town that provides livestock at auction to Heartlands landowners, and rest and refreshment to thirsty cowboys. It’s nicknamed “Mudtown” because the streets, buildings, and most of the residents are rarely clean. Valentine is a settlement in Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online in The Heartlands region of the New Hanover territory. Several suppliers and businesses can be found within the town including two saloons, a butcher, a doctor, a general store, a gunsmith, a newspaper stand, a stable, and valentine gift for boyfriend online shopping hotel.

The northern section of Valentine contains the main street with most of the buildings and businesses. The southern section is home to the livestock yards, including various pens, and the auction yard. The east side of town is home to a smaller saloon, a few homes, and the town church. The nights are also fairly cool, although the temperature won’t usually drop below freezing.

Valentine is on approximately the same latitude as Van Horn Trading Post. Valentine is connected to the railway network by a train station situated south-east of the town. Within the station is a post office, where the player can pay off bounties, receive and send mail, or purchase train tickets. Northwest of the train station are livestock yards, housing various pens and an auction yard. Just outside of the theater is a camping site, with a number of tents, wagons, and two campfires. The player may cook on the campfires and even take from the camp’s stew pot as they wish.

Just north of the gallows is a butcher’s stall, where the player can sell game they have hunted, or buy meat to refill their cores. Across the street and to the north is the stable, an establishment where the player can buy and customize different breeds of horses, purchase customization for their horses, such as saddles or blankets, and alter their horse’s hair length and color. Adjacent to the stable is a building under construction, where builders can be seen carrying and hammering down planks of wood. By 1907, this building is complete with red wooden paneling and a grey, tiled roof. Facing this construction site is the Saints Hotel, where the player can rent a room to bathe, change their clothing, and sleep to refill their cores or to simply pass time.

This bank is robbed in the mission “Sodom? The player can also sell some of their possessions here, most falling under the same categories as the purchasable goods. To the east of the general store is Smithfield’s Saloon, where the player can refill their cores by eating meals, or by purchasing and consuming alcoholic beverages. In front of the left window here is a poker table, where the player can gamble and try their luck to win sums of money. To the east of the Law Office is the Gunsmith, owned by R.

Here, the player can purchase and customize weapons, restock on ammunition and buy tools to maintain their arms such as gun oil. To the south of the church is the second tavern in Valentine, Keane’s Saloon. Valentine is the first town the player normally interacts with following the gang’s descent from the alpine mining town of Colter. Many of the missions in Chapter 2 are centered in and around Valentine. The mission “The Sheep and the Goats” starts here where John and Arthur steal a herd of sheep and send them to the auction yard in town. A firefight between the gang and private guards of Cornwall ensues in town, which injures Strauss. The event forces the gang to relocate from Horseshoe Overlook.

Valentine serves as the central stage for the mission “Sodom? Back to Gomorrah”, where members of the gang rob the town’s bank and forced to fight their way out against lawmen. In the epilogue, Mary-Beth can be found here, at the train station. There are a number of real-life communities in the western United States named Valentine.

Despite the Valentine Church being present on the Valentine Cigarette Card, it is not interactable, and it seems no one goes there. Although the O’Driscolls no longer exist as a gang by the time of the epilogue, four members can still be encountered in the backroom of the Valentine Doctor’s Office if the robbery of the side business is performed as John Marston. These O’Driscolls do not have any alternative dialogue during 1907. The streets of Valentine are extremely muddy, and the player’s horse will quickly get dirty from riding in the town. Additionally, if the player falls over on to the street, they will get extremely muddy and will need to bathe or change their outfit in order to become clean again. The Valentine Curse is something that may be mentioned by Jacob Worth, the shopkeeper in the Worth’s General Store, and by R. Dalton, the Valentine Gunsmith in his shop.

After completing the “Polite Society, Valentine Style”, the curse may be mentioned by Karen in a discussion with Mary-Beth at Horseshoe Overlook. This curse is also mentioned during the hanging of the “Killer Prostitute”. The gunsmith in Valentine might mention the line of dancing patrons in Smithfield’s after the mission “A Quiet Time” confirming that it was not a drunken hallucination of Arthur’s. Cigarette Cards The Cigarette Card for Charles Châtenay can be found on the front porch of a house to the northwest. The Cigarette Card for Frank Heck can be found on a gravestone to the northeast, on the rectangular base of a rounded headstone directly in front of the monolith while facing northeast. In the cluster of structures to the southwest are two adjacent wagons. The Cigarette Card for Isadore Reid can be found in the back of one.
