Reddit user h4furi believes that they may have come across aHarry PotterEaster egg inRed Dead Redemption 2, with Potter’s iconic forehead scar mirrored on the forehead of the outlaw John Marston. Many populargaming characters feature some memorable scars, fromThe Witcher’s Geralt of Rivia toMass Effect 2’s Commander Shephard, but how Marston got all of his scars is somewhat shrouded in mystery.

As of now, Rockstar hasn’t confirmed whether Marston’s forehead scar is aHarry Potterreference, but the similarity is uncanny.
