The Wild West Welcome Wagon: Arthur's Not-So-Grand Guide to New Austin
Howdy, partners! Ever feel like the vast plains of Red Dead Redemption 2 are a bit too...tame? Do you crave the thrill of exploring forbidden lands, even if it means getting chased by invisible assassins with itchy trigger fingers? Well then, saddle up, because we're talking about venturing into the lawless territory of New Austin as Arthur Morgan himself!
Now, some folks might tell you it ain't possible. They might mutter about invisible snipers and hefty bounties on Arthur's head. But fear not, adventurous soul! There are ways, unconventional perhaps, but ways nonetheless, to become a New Austin pioneer (or should we say, sneak-ioneer?).
How Can Arthur Get To New Austin |
Method 1: The Saint Denis Stagecoach Shuffle (Not for the Faint of Heart)
This one's a real doozy. You'll need some serious luck and a healthy dose of "what were they thinking?" First, mosey on down to Saint Denis and snag yourself a ride on a stagecoach heading west. Now, here's the tricky part: Just as the stagecoach crosses the border into New Austin, DIVE OUT! Sure, you might get a few bumps and bruises (or worse), but hey, at least you'll be in New Austin, right? Right? (We don't recommend this method unless you have a death wish or a very sturdy hat).
Method 2: The Chuggington Express (For the Patient Gambler)
This method involves a little patience and a whole lot of chugging. Head over to Rhodes and keep an eye out for a train heading west. Now, this ain't exactly a bulletproof plan. You might get thrown off, or worse, the law might decide to take an unwelcome interest in your little sightseeing trip. But hey, if you manage to stay on board long enough, you just might find yourself in that New Austin sunshine! (Just be sure to pack some snacks, this train ride might take a while).
QuickTip: Check if a section answers your question.
Important Note: These methods come with a hefty bounty attached, so be prepared to outrun the law or have some serious savings for those pesky bounty hunters.
Advanced Techniques: For the Truly Daring (and Glitchy)
We're venturing into some murky territory here, partners. These methods involve exploits and glitches that might not always work, and could even mess with your game. Proceed with caution, and remember, a glitch in the matrix ain't pretty (or safe) out in the wild west.
There are various online guides detailing these methods, but we recommend sticking to the "safe" (well, safer) methods above unless you're feeling particularly adventurous (or have a good backup save file).
Tip: Take your time with each sentence.
