Satchel

The "Legend of the East" Satchel

The Satchel is an item in Red Dead Redemption, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online. It contains all of the player's items.

Red Dead Redemption[]

The satchel is a vital item in Red Dead Redemption; it holds your provisions, consumables, and kit items, and allows the player to hold 5 of each consumable. Some of the items it holds are the bandana, animal pelts, the basic campfire, and a few other items.

The Treasure Hunter's satchel is an item you attain after getting Rank 10 on the Treasure Hunter challenges. It allows the player to carry twice as many items as the regular satchel.

Red Dead Redemption 2[]

In Red Dead Redemption 2, the satchel returns, with many more upgrades. Simon Pearson can upgrade the satchel after the leather working tools have been purchased for him through the camp ledger (which becomes available after the player collects and puts in the donation box any of the debts of "Money Lending and Other Sins I & II" mission). Every satchel requires leather working tools to be purchased, as well as each having their own individual requirements to be met, though each satchel has its own benefits. However, during the epilogue, John may visit a Fence and buy any satchels that weren't crafted with Pearson for Arthur.

Once obtained, each satchel doubles its related inventory items. For example, the tonics satchel doubles the number of tonics that the player can carry. The Legend of the East Satchel, which is only unlockable after obtaining all other satchels, increases capacity to 99 for most items. Once a certain satchel has been unlocked, the perks that come with it become permanent, and thus stack across all satchels.
