Red Dead Redemption players discover what happened to Jack Marston after the epilogue

If you’ve always wondered what became of Jack Marston after the epilogue ended and the credits rolled, one fan may have uncovered what his future involved, and it’s not the life we pictured the heir to the Marston Ranch having.

The poor boy has a lot to get off his chest given all that he experienced in bothRed Dead Redemptionand its sequel. So much so, it would seem, that Jack turned to the written word to share his experiences with the world.
