First and foremost, time travel is established within Red Dead Redemption 2. In the game, there is a character named Francis Sinclair who is met through a side quest in which players are to find a number of rock carvings. After all is said and done, they return to Sinclair’s cabin only to find Mrs. Sinclair caring for a baby version of Francis. Hence, time travel exists to some degree in the Rockstar universe.

Between both series, players have also discovered the existence of the Sasquatch hunter. In both Grand Theft Auto V and the Undead Nightmare DLC for the first, the Sasquatch hunter can be found, appearing identical in both titles. The hunter might be easy to miss as one of the hidden side quests in Grand Theft Auto V. However, the Easter egg provides more evidence, nonetheless.
Perhaps most prominently of the Red Dead Easter eggs in Grand Theft Auto V, however, is the existence of a book called “Red Dead.” The book is apparently penned by “J Marston.” However, while this could easily refer to John Marston, the playable protagonist in Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Redemption 2, it more likely refers to Jack Marston who has a greater appreciation for literature and the arts.
With all of the above evidence, the time travel link is fairly convincing. Considering both are from the same developer and that there are references to other Rockstar games in Grand Theft Auto V, the likelihood of a time travel connection to Red Dead Redemption 2 is possible. Yet, the link is only one of many Easter eggs within Grand Theft Auto V, as players can also find references to aliens, a whale skeleton, and more.
Grand Theft Auto V is currently on Xbox 360, PS3, Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
