Unimaginable Worlds and Unrelenting Odds Are Unleashed in the Follow-Up to Cult Classic Game, REMNANT: From the Ashes

REMNANT II is now available for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S from Gearbox Publishing and Gunfire Games. The sequel to the best-selling game Remnant: From the Ashes, REMNANT II is a third-person action-survival shooter that pits the last remnants of humanity against the harrowing forces of evil. The title evolves the co-op survival shooter with new unseen worlds filled with deadly surprises and encounters. Join the battle to save humanity in a dynamically generated world filled with branching quest lines, unique loot, and overwhelming odds that encourage exploration and replayability either alone or in three-person co-op. Players will define their own playstyle with an expanded Archetype class system and a wide assortment of guns, armor, and special augmentations as they overcome hard-fought challenges to stave off humanity’s extinction.

REMNANT II plunges players into a devastated world requiring a mix of methodical and frenetic ranged and melee combat against cunning enemies and punishing boss battles. Enter the fray as a lone-wolf or even the odds by teaming up with two friends to overcome daunting challenges. Each time players start a new playthrough of REMNANT II they will be brought into a new world built from a wide pool of locations, enemies, NPCs, bosses, and weapons. These dynamically built levels allow for unique experiences as elements are woven organically into the world and narrative.

An updated Archetype system gives players more flexibility to their play style and lets groups better sync unique passive abilities and stunning powers together in co-op play or combine Archetypes for hybrid play styles. From precision skilled shots, up-close and personal melee strikes, providing valued team support, or siccing their trusty dog companion on a horde of beasts, REMNANT II allows players to outfit their character the way they want to play.

“Gunfire Games has crafted a breakneck thrilling co-op shooting experience that elevates the franchise beyond what made REMNANT: From the Ashes so beloved by fans,” said Yoon Im, president of Gearbox Publishing San Francisco. “It was an honor to once again partner with this talented team on this amazing franchise. With REMNANT II, they have developed a truly special game that we know fans will absolutely love.”

“Gunfire Games strives to craft games that we, as fans of video games, are excited to play,” said David Adams of Gunfire Games. “We are proud of what we have been able to accomplish with REMNANT II in its immersive world design, engaging encounters, and broad range of unique Archetypes to play as. We are also very thankful for all the fans who have followed us from REMNANT: From the Ashes, and welcome new fans into the world of REMNANT.”
