How to unlock the Remnant 2 Ritualist archetype

How do you unlock the Remnant 2 Ritualist? If you've exhausted the base game class selection in Gunfire Games' world-hopping sequel, the odds are high that you've got your eye on the Ritualist. This occult archetype eschews raw firepower in favor of stacking harmful status effects upon foes, inflicting terror, and even draining their own health pool for more damage. If all of the above appeals to you, then unlocking it should be your first priority.

The Ritualist is a Remnant 2 archetype exclusive to the Remnant 2 Awakened King DLC, so that's one obvious barrier to access. Thankfully, the steps to unlock it once you purchase the DLC are fairly straightforward; unlike the Remnant 2 Archon, it requires no special conditions or datamining. Instead, you just have to reach the archetype engram material's secret location in the action-adventure game, and we've scoured the length of the Forlorn Coast to find it. Here's how to unlock the Remnant 2 Ritualist archetype.

Remnant 2 The Awakened King is Shakespearean Cluedo with guns

Wakey wakey, rise and shine, because the multiverse just got a little bit bigger. The Awakened King DLC is the first installment in a trilogy set to expand Remnant 2's three primary worlds of Losomn, Yaesha, and N'Erud. While N'Erud's biomechanical aesthetic has a special place in my heart, this one-shot adventure takes me back to Losomn to wrap up my favorite storyline. The One True King's conspicuous absence has served as the throughline of the sundered world, leaving a power vacuum filled by all manner of would-be successors that proclaim his death. In so many words, I am assured: "He's not dead, he's just sleeping."
