Remnant II is a a third-person action-survival shooter that pits survivors of humanity against new deadly creatures and god-like bosses across terrifying worlds.

Remnant II evolves the co-op survival shooter with new unseen worlds filled with deadly surprises and encounters, pitting survivors of humanity against new deadly creatures and god-like bosses across terrifying worlds.

Join the battle to save humanity in a dynamically generated world filled with branching quest lines, unique loot, and overwhelming odds that encourage exploration and replayability either alone or in three-person co-op. Players will define their own playstyle with an expanded Archetype class system and a wide assortment of guns, armor, and special augmentations as they overcome hard-fought challenges to stave off humanity’s extinction.

Remnant II plunges players deeper into a devastated world requiring a mix of methodical and frenetic ranged and melee combat against cunning enemies and punishing boss battles. Enter the fray as a lone-wolf or even the odds by teaming up with two friends to overcome daunting challenges. Each time players start a new playthrough of Remnant II they will be brought into a new world built from a wide pool of locations, enemies, NPCs, bosses, and weapons. These dynamically built levels allow for unique experiences as elements are woven organically into the world and narrative. 

Branching quest lines, augments, crafting, and loot rewards will test the resolve of even the most hardened players in dynamically generated dungeons and areas. Playthroughs will feel challenging, varied, and rewarding as players succeed against unrelenting odds. Various stories are woven throughout the different worlds, encouraging exploration and multiple revisits.

An expanded Archetype system gives players more flexibility to their play style and lets groups better sync unique passive abilities and stunning powers together in co-op play. Multiple Archetypes can be unlocked, leveled up, and equipped together for a wider variety of play styles.


Everyone needs a good doggo by their side while battling deadly creatures across terrifying worlds. The Handler and their loyal companion work together to take down the toughest enemies. Venturing into the apocalypse alone can be daunting, so bringing a friend is always a good idea.

In Remnant II, players will fight side-by-side with their faithful dog companion to attack and distract enemies - and OF COURSE you can pet the dog.

Petting speeds up your fur baby’s health so it’s ready to get back into the fight.

The citizens of Yaesha have attempted to stem the tide, fighting back against the unrelenting forces of the Root, but this has proven to be a futile endeavor. See what remains in the overgrown ruins of a once-great Pan civilization.
