Notes

• Regarding chronology: Although the player may complete most Stranger's Missions at any time (once they are available), as well as the DLC missions. The main storyline's continuity of Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare seems to indicate that all Stranger Missions (except for "Remember My Family"), and Undead Nightmare's main storyline (except for "A Civilized Man"), would all happen before "The Last Enemy That Shall Be Destroyed". Leaving only "Remember My Family" (in Red Dead Redemption) and "On a Pale Horse" (in Undead Nightmare), which are the only two missions to explicitly occur after John's death.

Trivia

• In Undead Nightmare, completing a Survivor Side-Mission will get the player the Achievement Strange Things are Afoot.
• Bonnie McFarlane is the only story character in the game for whom the player is given over five missions, with a total of seven to complete.
