Remnant II News

Remnant 2 devs hid a whole new class behind datamining - and yes, someone’s already found it

Remnant 2, this year’s sequel to surprisingly good ‘Dark Souls, but a co-op shooter’ Remnant: From the Ashes, continues to land surprise after surprise - from being a surprisingly ambitious follow-up to the less-good surprise of its tech woes on PC. The biggest and best surprise so far might be an entirely new class, which devs Gunfire Games deliberately hid behind an unlock process so obscure you needed to datamine its solution.

How do I unlock the Remnant 2 Archon? The question that plagued the Remnant 2 community during its first week after launch has finally been solved. While Gunfire Games has stuffed its sequel with plenty of secrets to keep fans busy, unlocking this secret archetype is a real headscratcher, and it's proven as popular as it is elusive thanks to its powerful suite of abilities.

In order to unlock the Archon in Remnant 2, we've compiled a straightforward list of the parameters required to access the corrupted biome in The Labyrinth and enter the action-adventure game's mysterious Backrooms. Before you begin, it's vital that you unlock the Invader and Explorer classes, since you'll need their dual archetype combination in order to begin to unlock the Remnant 2 Archon.

Remnant 2 has a class that can only be obtained by datamining, and it’s no accident

Remnant 2, much like its predecessor (and perhaps even moreso!) is a game all about the little discoveries. Like many Souls-likes, Remnant 2 doesn't explain a lot of its mechanics, or how its various sytems interact with eachother.

Indeed, the prodecurally generated nature of its level design mean that every player's starting world is going to be different, and the levels themsleves can contain different items/be made of different sections depending on the seed that generated them.

Because of that, Remnant 2 has a chunk of hidden content by design. Even going as far as hiding entire classes behind story choices, or only revealing them after certain requirements have been met. But now way is this more evident than the Archon, one of the game's many hidden classes.

Remnant II has peaked at 110,856 concurrent players on 30 July 2023 within the release week.
