So You Wanna Be a New Austin Tourist? A Guide for the Adventurous Arthurs
Ah, New Austin. The land of scorching sun, tumbleweeds, and the ever-present threat of getting ventilated by a mysterious, invisible sniper. But hey, who doesn't love a little danger, right? Especially us outlaw cowboys with a hankering for exploration and maybe some legendary loot.
The only teeny tiny snag? You ain't exactly supposed to be there as Arthur. Those pesky Pinkertons have got their beady eyes peeled for any sign of our charmingly scruffy protagonist.
But fear not, my fellow wanderers! There are ways to become a New Austin tourist without becoming a permanent resident of the Boot Hill cemetery.
Tip: Reread slowly for better memory.

| How Do You Get To New Austin As Arthur In Rdr2 |
Method 1: The Bounty Bonanza
This little trick involves a bounty mission gone rogue (well, not literally rogue, that would be messy). Here's the plan:
- Snag a bounty: Head to Valentine and snag the bounty for Benedict Albright.
- Hogtie and Hold: Instead of turning him in like a good little cowboy, hogtie that varmint and put him on your trusty steed.
- New Austin, Here We Come!: With Benedict as your unwilling travel buddy, hightail it straight to New Austin. The Pinkertons shouldn't bother you while you've got a bounty in tow. Just make sure Benedict doesn't fall off your horse and escape – those tumbleweeds can be awfully distracting.
Word to the Wise: This method can be a little finicky. Sometimes the Pinkertons have a mind of their own and decide you're suspicious anyway. But hey, where's the fun without a little risk?
QuickTip: Return to sections that felt unclear.
Method 2: The Scenic Wagon Tour (For the Faint of Heart)
Not a fan of tempting fate with angry lawmen? This method is for you! All you need is a touch of patience and a knack for grand theft auto (wagon, that is).
- Wagon Ho! Head to Strawberry and keep your eyes peeled for a stagecoach or covered wagon.
- Borrow Without Asking: When the coast is clear (and there are no startled witnesses), hop on that wagon like it's going out of style.
- New Austin Adventure (Hopefully): With a little luck, the wagon will take you deep into New Austin territory before the driver realizes they've got an unwanted passenger. Just don't blame me if you get kicked off mid-journey.
Bonus Tip: If you manage to snag a covered wagon, you might even be able to shield yourself from the dreaded sniper fire. Just sayin'.
Tip: Read carefully — skimming skips meaning.
