Critic Reviews for Remnant II
Remnant 2 is an ambitious sequel stuffed with delightful - and deadly - surprises.
Where Remnant: From The Ashes was a strong first draft, Remnant 2 is a revolutionary sequel and a sterling manifesto for the looter-shooter soulslike.
Remnant 2 is a dependable looter shooter made special by its boundless capacity to surprise.
A significant improvement on the last game and one of the best Soulslikes of recent years, with excellent use of procedural generation and so much variety it's almost impossible to see everything.
Remnant II is most successful as a tour through a series of disparate dimensions, each contending with their own battles against the villainous Root plaguing their world. The gunplay is solid, the co-op with up to two other players works great, and the lore is fascinating (if you want to dig deep). Remnant II’s plot, characters, and progression are where it falls short, but I like its third-person shooter take on mechanics and ideas borrowed from the Souls games.
Remnant 2 builds on its predecessor to create a rewarding and unpredictable experience that's difficult to put down.
If you were a fan of Remnant: From the Ashes, chances are you already planned to pick up Remnant 2. If you haven’t played the original but are a fan of souls-like games, or even rogue-likes like Risk of Rain 2 or Returnal, this will be right up your alley.
Remnant II is a fantastic fantasy shooter, offering a dark and enticing series of worlds to explore, loot and conquer. Whether you're playing solo or in co-op, this is easily one of the game experiences of the year.
