Banditos are a hostile faction featured in Red Dead Revolver and Red Dead Redemption. They consist of Mexican outlaws.
In Redemption's multiplayer mode, some character models based on the Banditos gang can be selected from the Outfitter under the name "Miscellaneous Mexicans".
Overview[]
Red Dead Revolver[]
| “ | Percy said, "There were three of them wearing bandanas over their faces and all you could see was their eyes, but the SMELL! I hope they used some of that money to buy a bath!" | „ |

Banditos appear as enemies in some missions in Red Dead Revolver. Specifically, they are encountered during "Ghost Town", "The Cemetery", "Range War" and "Saloon Fight". They all have the same character model, which is Bandito, albeit recolored. By purchasing the Ruined Poncho, the player can unlock pages 110 - 111 of Sheriff Bartlett's Journal, which covers Bandito.
Red Dead Redemption[]
The Banditos is a gang that operates in the Nuevo Paraiso territory in Red Dead Redemption. They can be found primarily in Chuparosa and Casa Madrugada (more common at night), and will react appropriately if Marston draws his gun. They also end up occupying Fort Mercer after it is abandoned by Williamson's gang, and can sometimes be encountered in Rio Bravo doing random crimes because of this. Most bounty targets in Nuevo Paraiso are Banditos.
Banditos normally wear similar clothes which include a large sombrero, a jacket, a red kerchief and a bandolier. The player can get the Bandito Outfit that allows him to look like them. This makes them befriend the player until they take aggressive action on them.
Multiplayer[]
The player can play as banditos in Redemption's Multiplayer mode. They belong to the category "Miscellaneous Mexicans" and one can be found in the "Miscellaneous Criminals" category.
Members[]
Note: Even if killed/captured during certain random encounters or bounty hunting missions, these named Banditos will respawn and can be found again at their usual hangout places or during other random encounters.

Trivia[]
- Even with the Bandito Outfit equipped, the Banditos at Fort Mercer will still attack Marston because the only way to get in the fort is to walk towards Leon Galindo who will boost the player onto some crates.
- When the player wears the Bandito Outfit, the gang will not assist the player in a fight. The same goes for Walton's Gang and the Bollard Twins Gang.
- The Banditos do not appear in Undead Nightmare.
- However, one Bandito, Mateo Clisante, can be encountered as a Bruiser.
- The Banditos at Tesoro Azul in Free Roam will not fire upon the player if they enter the hideout without shooting, but they will become hostile when provoked. This also goes for the rebels at Nosalida.
- In the Chuparosa Cantina, a small posse of Banditos can always be found drinking at the table inside the cantina. Curiously, Mateo Clisante and Yago Alejandres are the two Banditos who will never spawn there. However, they will still spawn at Casa Madrugada, where Alejandres may even partake in a game of Liar's Dice.
