Remnant II: Major Updates And Key Features Unveiled

In the ever-evolving world of gaming, staying updated with the latest enhancements is crucial for players looking to maximize their experience. Recently, Gunfire Games has rolled out significant updates for their acclaimed title, Remnant II, which not only enhances gameplay but also introduces exciting new features. With the introduction of full cross-play functionality, players across platforms like PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC can now seamlessly connect and collaborate in co-op modes, making the gaming experience more inclusive and enjoyable.

Moreover, updates bring back the popular Aberration Domination event, allowing players to engage in thrilling challenges while hunting down unique weapon variants. The developers have also hinted at upcoming downloadable content (DLC) that promises to build on the success of previous expansions, ensuring that the world of Remnant II remains vibrant and engaging for both new and returning players.

As we dive deeper into the game, it’s worthwhile to explore all the key takeaways from these updates. From cross-play capabilities to the return of fan-favorite events, players have much to look forward to. This article will delve into the essential features of Remnant II, emphasizing what makes this game an exciting choice for action RPG enthusiasts.

Gunfire Games' acclaimed follow-up to the impressive 2019 shooter Remnant: From the Ashes, in the form of last year's Remnant II, has received its latest round of updates which sees full cross-play across platforms now available. Players across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC will now be able to team up in co-op multiplayer, the studio has confirmed, be they friends or strangers alike.

Speaking on today's update, David Adams, President of Gunfire Games and Remnant II's Game Director explained:

"Crossplay has been one of the most player-requested features for REMNANT II, and our community has been so awesome waiting patiently for this feature to roll out. We’re so excited to launch this update today as the team has been working hard to make it a reality. There’s even more Remnant II content to come, including the second DLC!"

Indeed, as if Gunfire's additional add-on to its otherwise fantastic sequel, via last November's The Awakened King, wasn't enough, the sequel is still on course to receive an additional two DLC packs, though no further update or word of release as to either DLC has so far been given.

Today's update also sees the return of the in-game Aberration Domination event, which -- when it previously went live last October -- had players hunt down Aberrations across the sequel's multiple world settings, in the pursuit of Corrupted variants of particular weapons. Today's revival of the event sees five further weapons get the Corrupted treatment: Savior, Twisted Arbalest, Sorrow, Nebula, and a personal favorite: the Cube Gun.

Remnant II is available now across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
