It’s finally happened! A follow-up to one of my favorite games, Remnant from the Ashes, Remnant II has been announced during The Game Awards. I don’t think I could have yelled any louder tonight.
According to the Steam page, Remnant II is the sequel to the best-selling game Remnant: From the Ashes that pits survivors of humanity against new deadly creatures and god-like bosses across terrifying worlds. Play solo or co-op with two other friends to explore the depths of the unknown to stop an evil from destroying reality itself. To succeed, players will need to rely on their own skills and those of their team to overcome the toughest challenges and stave off humanity’s extinction.
It’s going to be interesting to see how this story plays out, as the player in the original game story was completed in the final DLC. Here, it looks like new characters will take on the role of saving the world.
