    Excellent game. I tried to like the first one but prefering solo play, I found it was heavily designed for co-op. Remnant 2 is far superior, with just about everything upgraded or addressed from the first one. Absolutely love it.

    Great follow up sequel. Improves on all the right areas. Love the balance and gameplay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun and challenging game that still keeps things approachable and easy to jump in and out as life/schedule allows.

    I'm really enjoying the game. I'm a bit lost on the story but that's probably due to the fact that I didn't play the first one. Doesn't really matter though because the gameplay is fun.

Having people to play with makes tougher fights much more manageable. I was able to group with my friends on PS5 by finding and joining their game when interacting with the red crystal. That said, it would be great if there was also a way to send invites. Also, there doesn't seem to be in game voice chat at this time which is a bummer. Hopefully they add these features at some point. Have only encountered one bug in like 10 hours of play where I got pushed through a wall when an enemy grabbed me requiring me to log out and back in. Framerate is stable at 60fps on balanced setting. Not perfect, but having a lot of fun. No regrets on the purchase.… Expand

    If you played the first one and enjoyed it, then I have no doubt in my mind that you will enjoy this even more. Improved graphics and game play all around, melee is more viable than the first and the guns feel tight and varied from each other.

    The introduction of new and unlockable secret archetypes is a great addition.

    A lot of the dungeons feel like you're playing detective if you want to find everything in them and that is a good thing. Especially in co-op where you can work with a friend to solve the puzzles,

    HUGE replayability make this one I will keep coming back to for numerous runs, as each time you spawn a game it randomizes the game so that you will face new bosses and layouts through your different playthroughs.

    It does not change much gameplay wise from the first, but didn't need to as they have a great formula...

    I highly recommend this game! If you can find a buddy or two to co-op it with, it makes the game even better,    … Expand

    Bad-
    Dynamic threat generation can go a little overboard at times. Controller settings, particularly sensitivity and deadzones, could use some more work. Some narrative bits feel awkward, and the player's constant callouts are annoying. Slight camera issues in tight spaces and a bit of jank.

    Thoughts-
    Saying that Remnant 2 is more Remnant isn’t inaccurate, but it’s far from being just more of the same. Quirks and issues aside, the sequel offers so much variety, challenges, environments, features and customization while delivering a compelling, well-paced journey. Sure, it doesn’t break the mold for compelling third-person shooter action, but it’s a worthy sequel that fans will love.    … Expand

    It's a very good game, I loved the first part as well, but I like the second part even better, the graphics are nicer, the gunplay was also polished, the game may have become a little more difficult, but I don't mind it at all, at least it's a challenge. I think I will play the game again many times 10/10

    Not being able to play with your friends during an early access period doesn't make this game a 0. That is just people being disappointed. The first game was an 8. This game basically improved on everything so this game is a 9. If you enjoy the gameplay loop, which most will, you will get a lot of hours of fun out of this game.

Logged in almost 50 hours and still enjoying the game the random world map given to you makes it unique from any other games that I played you can just re-roll your world in case you didn't want what's given to you thus making each of them unique in architecture and level of design which is awesome, Combat is fun once you get strong and acquired weapons, armor, mods etc through out your game.

    The only problem i encounter through out the game is performance most specifically bugs where you'll get stuck in a boss fight without enemies spawning leaving you quite disappointed especially when you're halfway in a fight but i just encounter this bug twice and only exist when you have a mini gank boss fight.

    9/10 a must play.    … Expand

    60 hours in, still discovering secrets. This is a massive improvement over Remnant: From the Ashes and cries out to be played. Whether along or with friends, this game is more than worth the sticker price.

Especially the co-op mode is fun again and together against the tasks faster and more pleasant over. The graphics and the soundtrack are simply great and round off the very positive overall impression of "Remnant 2". Those who would like to play together should gladly try out the sequel to "Remnant: From the Ashes".… Expand

    I was a very big fan of the first game, enough to play it more even after i had the platinum trophy and all the item in the game.

    The reason is because in Remant from the ashes you could always play to receive traits points so I was having fun helping peoples just to boost my traits, at least there was this little personnal goal.
    But in Remnant 2 they had the very bad idea to block the traits points gathering at 60 so now after completing the game, did beat every boss solo, after 35 hours I feel bored and I don't see any good reason to keep playing.
    Don't get me wrong Remnant is a good game, I like the new class system, the gameplay is still great, the graphic are nice but it feel shorter than the first game without even tinking about the limit in traits points.
    Story is average.
    Sound is fine.
    It's the same lame coop system where you need to touch a crystal to reset, that cause chaos when you are 3 peoples online but that do the job at least.
    It could have been game of the year for me but it really piss me off to see the animation on the screen when I receive a new trait points but it doesn't count because i'm already at 60.
    Sadly it's more like a deception than a master piece.    … Expand

    Looks fantastic, plays really well, no freaking micro transactions, tons of replayability… I’m having a blast with it. The final boss was kinda BS, but that’s just my take on not being a gigachad at the game. Best game purchase I’ve made this year. Miles ahead of Diablo 4.

    This game has everything an OG gamer and new school gamer could want. There's no shortage of fun and challenge to be had. The combinations a player can make their character seem endless. The gun play puts COD and so many others to shame. Been a long time since I've played a game multiple run throughs and not gotten bored. Excellent game and a 9/10 must play.

    As a gamer who has at one time enjoyed, but since grown tired of games like Diablo, Division, and Destiny, I thought I could never love another loot shooter/dungeon crawler again. But Remnant II has changed all that.

    Instead of the endless gameplay loops of slowly upgrading loot over and over again, Remnant has great story, gameplay, and excitement of discovery. Enemy boss encounters are interesting and a breath of fresh air. There are puzzles to solve instead of just mindlessly plowing through sprites with a left mouse click like Diablo. When you find new "loot" its exciting instead of a chore (like it is in Diablo).

    Remnant is an incredible game and deserves all the accolades I am sure are coming for it. Its definitely my game of the year.    … Expand

    I had an absolute blast playing this game. There are definitely a few things I wish were better but the core gameplay mechanics are there and the devs did an amazing job, especially for $50 retail. Definitely buying all DLC and hopes the successful sales of this game will allow the devs to continue to make amazing games. Maybe not GotY but the most fun I’ve had in a while!

    Developer Gunfire Games returns with the more polished sequel Remnant II. Players itching for an open world of brutality can take on a randomized campaign for hours of entertainment. Like its predecessor, the plot steps away from the forefront while the gameplay does all the talking. Defend yourself and your teammates against swarms of deadwood, and other massive entities until you conquer The Root. The immersive atmosphere and quick thinking mechanics will be your best distraction this year. In all, this sequel displays Gunfire Games' efforts in listening to their fandom and polishing that feedback. Any gamer can find enjoyment and satisfaction when they tune in unaccompanied, but the real fun begins once your friends join the fight.

    Remnant II is capable of surprises with its varied world design, and offers an enjoyable co-op experience, but its combat loop is needlessly stodgy and repetitive. [Issue#31, p.70]

    A masterful mix of souls-like and rogue-like elements with some excellent third person shooting, makes Remnant 2 a game you can sink hundreds of hours into and still not get enough.
