If you add them all, you get 104 main story missions across the full campaign (chapters + epilogues).
Why Chapters + Epilogues?
- The main chapters follow the story of Arthur Morgan and his gang, showing how their lives change over time.
- The epilogues pick up after the main story and shift the spotlight to John Marston, closing out the tale.
- Many missions depend on choices you make. So your experience might slightly differ from others.
- Some missions are optional or “honor” missions. You can skip them, and they don’t always block progress in the main story.
