From the Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remnant_2):
Remnant 2 is a third-person shooter action role-playing video game developed by Gunfire Games and published by Gearbox Publishing. As the sequel to Remnant: From the Ashes, the game was released for PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X/S in July 2023. It received generally positive reviews upon release, and sold more than 1 million copies in its first week of release.
Like its predecessor, Remnant 2 is a third-person shooter inspired by Soulslike video games.[1] Players can wield up to two guns, alongside their melee weapon. At the beginning of the game, players can select their character archetypes.[2] For instance, the Gunslinger class replaces the Ex-cultist class from the first game, and focuses on the use of firearms. The Challenger class can unleash a shockwave that disintegrate enemies, while the Handler class has a dog companion who will aid in combat.[3] Players will gain the ability to dual class as they progress in the game. Players can also activate different archetype-specific perks and skills. For the Gunslinger, their unique ability is "Loaded", which instantly reloads all the firearms the character is carrying.[4] For the Handler class, the prime perk ability is "Bonded", which allows their dog companion to revive the character after they have fallen in combat.[5]
While the first game features procedural generation by changing a level's layout and enemy spawn points, it has been significantly expanded in Remnant 2. According to Gunfire Games, enemy types, the aesthetic of a region, boss characters, non-playable characters and the game's storyline and quests are also randomly generated.[6] Players can play through the entire game solo, though the game also supports a three-player cooperative multiplayer mode.[7]
Set after Subject 2923, the final downloadable content pack released for Remnant: From the Ashes, the game's story follows a nameless survivor who is tasked with stopping "The Root", a race of evil plant species which seeks to destroy the multiverse.[8]
Remnant 2 was officially announced by developer Gunfire Games and publisher Gearbox Publishing during The Game Awards 2022.[9] The game was released for PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X/S in July 2023.[10][11] The story of the game is set after the final downloadable content released for Remnant: From the Ashes, though Gunfire deliberately kept the game's narrative simple to ensure that all players "have no trouble picking it up".[12]
For Remnant 2, the team intended to significantly build on the foundations laid by Remnant: From the Ashes.[13] Two main development goals were to expand gameplay variety using the archetype system, and increase the game's replay value through its procedural generation system. Explaining the system, David Adams, CEO of Gunfire Games, added that "at the top level we randomly generate the order of the biomes" that a player may encounter. The system will then generate "one of two unique storylines" in each biomes, and "all the mini bosses, side quests, events" within it. This helped ensure that players had more incentives to replay the game.[6] As each players will have a distinct experience playing the game, the developer hoped that players would be inclined to share their game experience with their friends.[12]
Remnant 2 received "generally favorable" reviews, according to the review aggregator Metacritic.[14][15]
Sales of Remnant 2 outpaced its predecessor, managing to nearly doubled the concurrent player count of Remnant: From the Ashes at launch. It was the second best-selling video game on Steam at launch.[23] The sales of Remnant 2 exceeded Gearbox's expectations.[24] More than 1 million copies of the game were sold during its first week of release.[25]
