Developer Gunfire Games has revealed that the upcoming Remnant 2 DLC, The Awakened King, can be played in co-op multiplayer without all players owning the DLC. The studio stated on social media that players that don’t own the DLC can still join players that do.
The downside is that players that don’t own The Awakened King will not be able to make use of any of the new items that might drop through their adventures in the DLC. To be able to use the new DLC items, the players would need to buy the DLC for themselves.
Remnant 2: The Awakened King was announced earlier this month, and will be coming to PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 14. The DLC revolves around the One True King, who has been corrupted by the Root while in a “near-death slumber”.
The DLC will bring with it new zones, dungeons and story content. Players will also be able to unlock the Ritualist Archetype, who makes use of status effects to take on enemies. There will also be new weapon mods, amulets and rings in the DLC.
Join DLC owners' games in 'The Awakened King' storyline, even without the DLC! ⚔️ – however, to use any DLC-related items that you acquire, you'll need to pick up a copy for yourself. <a href=«https://twitter.com/hashtag/Remnant2?src=hash&ref_src=» https:>#Remnant2

Remnant II has had a solid run since launching earlier this year, attracting over 2 million players with its unique combination of looter-shooter action, Dark Souls vibes, and Unreal Engine 5 visuals. I had some reservations about Remnant II, criticizing its gunplay and underwhelming approach to loot in my review, but I’ll admit the game’s sprawling procedurally generated world offered plenty of innovation and promise. Remnant II had a lot of the right pieces, it just couldn’t quite fit them together.
Baldur's Gate 3 lets you do an awful lot. But you can't play basketball or go bowling. So, players are finding their own unique workarounds, like picking up Gale and throwing him into a bunch of barrels or... dribbling with him. Bouncing him up and down off hard, rocky dirt paths. Sorry, Gale.
One of the focuses of this year's RPG-shooter Remnant II is build crafting, with the game’s Archetypes (the game’s name for classes) being at the core of that experience. The new Remnant II: The Awakened King DLC adds a additional Archetype, the Ritualist, and like many of the game’s classes, it needs to be unlocked in a specific way, but don’t worry, we’ve taken the mystery out of it.
