About Remnant II
Gunfire Games returned in July 2023 with Remnant II to finish the story they started. This third-person shooter mixes action RPG elements with dungeon crawling across strange dimensions. You play as a survivor fighting god-like bosses and monstrous creatures while trying to stop reality from collapsing. The game launched on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. It supports both single-player campaigns and co-op sessions where you team up with two other friends. The setting feels gritty and dangerous, relying on your aim and build variety rather than story exposition to drive the experience forward.
Gameplay
You move through procedurally generated zones shooting enemies while managing ammo and health packs. Combat feels weighty because every weapon has recoil patterns and reload animations that matter in tight spaces. You can switch between archetypes like Handler or Summoner to change how you approach encounters. Boss fights require memorizing attack telegraphs since one mistake often leads to a quick death. The game tracks 65 achievements, with most players unlocking only about 36 percent of them on average. Exploring requires patience because new world layouts appear every time you start a run. You will spend most minutes aiming down sights and dodging heavy attacks while coordinating with your party.
What Players Think
Players rate Remnant II highly at an 80.1 out of 100 based on 95 reviews on IGDB. The community vibe leans heavily toward dark, which matches the grim tone of the game. Completion rates show that only about a third of players unlock all achievements, proving the difficulty spikes in later stages. The rarest achievement "The Master Builder" sits at a mere 2.20 percent unlock rate, showing how few people finish that specific challenge. Prices have dropped significantly from launch, with Fanatical offering it for $12.49, which matches its all-time historical low. Most players seem to enjoy the difficulty but find the grind for full completion tedious without co-op support.
PlayPile's Take
Remnant II costs just $12.49 at its lowest price point, making it a solid value despite the steep learning curve. This title works best for players who enjoy punishing combat and don't mind repeated failures to learn boss patterns. The 65 achievements offer plenty of replayability, though the low average unlock rate suggests many quit before finishing everything. Avoid this if you want a casual shooter or a linear story experience. The game delivers exactly what it promises without extra fluff, but expect to die often while figuring out your build.
