Remnant II News

Though it may have been overshadowed somewhat by major releases like Baldur's Gate 3
, and more recently Starfield, there's no doubt Remnant 2 remains one of the year's best games.

Developer Gunfire Games has been quietly updating the game since its release, changing co-op scaling, making it easier to unlock Archtypes, improving performance, and continuing to add quality of life tweaks to the loot shooter.

The next update, which is expected to release this week, will continue the trend. Remnant 2 principal designer, Ben Cureton, shared on Twitter a big list of changes arriving with the upcoming patch. While the full set of patch notes has not been revealed, this is already looking like one of the game's biggest.

Remnant 2 has been out for just four weeks, and players have been doing exactly what developer Gunfire Games wanted them to do: discover all the different world permutations, hidden classes, unique Traits - and even that one class that can only be unlocked by datamining.

And the revelations keep on coming, as we're clearly nowhere near done. Remnant 2 is an old-school game that doesn't explain too much of itself, leaving players to their own devices and trusting them to figure things out on their own.

That sense of discovery is bolstered by the game's randomised nature, making every visit to the same world unique. Even apart from the items, gear, weapons, and unique bosses that you could run into on every different variation, there are also unique events that you may not come across even after revisiting the same world multiple times.
