You Craving That New Austin Sunshine, Partner? How to Sneak Past Blackwater's Bounty Hunters (Without Getting Yeeted Off a Cliff)
Howdy, fellow cowboys and cowgirls! Itchin' to explore the dusty plains and mysterious canyons of New Austin in Red Dead Redemption 2? Well, hold your horses (or don't, those are your trusty steeds after all) because venturing there as Arthur Morgan can be a mite...tricky. You see, Blackwater, the charming (and heavily guarded) town that sits right on the border, has a nasty habit of greeting Arthur with a whole lotta lead. Not exactly the relaxing vacation you were hoping for.
But fear not, buckaroos! There are ways, unconventional perhaps, but undeniably fun, to bypass those pesky bounty hunters and snag yourself a peek at New Austin's hidden treasures. Just remember, a little darn tootin' moxie goes a long way.
Tip: Revisit this page tomorrow to reinforce memory.

Method 1: The Saint Denis Shuffle (For the Sneaky Snake)
- Step 1: Become One with the Crowd. Head to the bustling streets of Saint Denis. Blend in with the fancy folk – wear your finest duds (no bloodstains!), comb that beard (or shave it clean!), and maybe even practice your French (just kidding... mostly).
- Step 2: Catch a Train (But Not Just Any Train). Head to the Saint Denis train station and keep your eyes peeled for a special unmarked train. This shadowy locomotive is your ticket to New Austin, assuming you can find the darn thing! (Hint: It might appear at night...)
- **Step 3: **Congratulations! You've reached New Austin (hopefully without a bounty on your head). Now git out there and explore! Just remember, stay on the down-low, or those bounty hunters might have a change of heart about their hospitality.
Important Note: This method can be a bit finicky. The unmarked train doesn't always show up, so be prepared for some trial and error (and maybe a few fistfights with overly-friendly Saint Denis citizens).

Method 2: The Dutch Van der Linde Escape Artist (For the High-Stakes Gambler)
Feeling adventurous? Then this method's for you! Follow these steps, but be warned: things might get a little explosive.

- Step 1: Relive the Saint Denis Bank Robbery (But Not Actually). Play through the main story mission "A Shocking Development" until you reach the part where Dutch masterfully (or maybe not so masterfully) creates a little "diversion" with some dynamite.
- **Step 3: **Here's the Tricky Part! Just before the lawmen swarm in, make a mad dash for the edge of the map, aiming for the border with New Austin. This might involve some creative horse maneuvering and dodging a few bullets (or a lot of bullets).
- Step Step 4: Freedom (Maybe)! If you manage to reach New Austin before getting ventilated, you're golden! Just remember, this method is a gamble, and the odds might not always be in your favor.
Pro-Tip: Having a fast horse and some potent health tonics might come in handy for this daring escape.
Tip: Skim only after you’ve read fully once.
Now, these are just two ways to explore the forbidden land of New Austin. There are other methods out there (some involving glitches and mods, but we won't get into that here...), so feel free to experiment and find what works best for you, partner.
Remember, the thrill of the challenge is half the fun!
