As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that The Dark Horizon for Remnant II has piqued my interest like no other game has in recent memory. Having traversed countless virtual worlds and battled numerous digital adversaries, I find myself drawn to the mysterious world of N’Erud and its colossal entity that dominates the skyline.

This upcoming expansion brings a fresh narrative set in N’Erud, complete with new adversaries, bosses, and an additional Archetype for players.

About The Dark Horizon DLC 

In the forthcoming and concluding expansion for REMNANT II titled The Dark Horizon DLC, gamers will revisit the world of N’Erud and discover a peculiar location frozen in time. Here, robot farmers tend to alien crops that were once cultivated by inhabitants who have long since ceased to exist. However, even time cannot escape corruption, and rogue AI and robotic creations pose constant dangers as players seek the truth about the colossal entity that looms over the cityscape. In a fresh narrative, players will be tasked with uncovering secrets hidden within the necropolis of N’Erud. As they embark on this journey, they’ll explore new dungeons, master a novel glider traversal system, gather potent equipment—including a brand-new Archetype called “The Warden”—encounter unexpected allies, and face new adversaries as they strive to vanquish the colossal being that oversees N’Erud.

Below is a detailed list of features for The Dark Horizon:

Explore fresh adventures within the realm of N’Erud, embarking on a new narrative journey! Venture into an ancient, timeless location to uncover the enigmatic past of a towering deity whose silhouette rules the sky.

  • New Glider Traversal System: In this new overworld, players will be able to experience a new glider traversal system that allows them to navigate the overworld and uncover the origins of the ominous presence that lies above. With this system, players can choose which parts of the overworld they want to explore, including how they want to face off against the new world boss.

About the Free Boss Rush Update 

Starting September 24, we’re excited to announce a significant update that includes a fresh game mode called “Boss Rush,” available at no cost on all platforms. Boss Rush is perfect for players who crave immediate action, as it allows them to engage directly with the challenging bosses in the game. Alongside this exciting addition, we’re also implementing various enhancements to improve your overall gaming experience.

In this game, players can decide whether to embark on their journey alone or team up with other Travelers using multiplayer. They can select from three different difficulty levels: Triple Threat (a mission involving three bosses), Trial by Fire (a mission involving seven bosses) and The Gauntlet (a challenging nineteen-boss run). Throughout the game, they will be tested on their survival skills.

Players can effortlessly reach the game mode by making their way to the World Stone located in Sector 13. Once there, they can opt for the Boss Rush option, much like choosing Campaign or Adventure. After selection, they’ll pick their desired level of challenge and commence their journey.

As a gamer, I’m excited about the upcoming free content update! Alongside the fresh game mode, there’s going to be a brand-new system called Prisms. Prisms are essentially an enhancement to our revamped Fragment System. By leveling up these Prisms, you can unlock extra stat bonuses, making your gaming experience even more thrilling!

REMNANT II places the remaining fragments of mankind against the menacing powers of darkness. The title advances the cooperative survival shooter genre by introducing uncharted realms brimming with hidden perils and unexpected interactions. Players engage in the struggle to preserve humanity within a world that dynamically changes, offering various storylines, exclusive items, and seemingly insurmountable challenges that encourage exploration and repeat gameplay, either solo or in teams of three. Players can shape their own gaming experience through an extended Archetype character system and a diverse collection of weapons, armor, and unique enhancements as they conquer formidable obstacles to prevent humanity’s demise.
