Remnant 2 Ultimate Edition

What’s in store for you

Gunfire Games ensured that the Ultimate Edition of the game is filled to the brim with all the good stuff that every fan of their soulslike title would enjoy. Alongside the base game, those who will be purchasing this edition will get the following:

• Three days early access to Remnant 2.
• An early unlock to three of Remnant: From the Ashes’ armor sets (Elder, Radiant, and Void).
• A Survival Pack (5 Bloodroot, 3 Ammo boxes, 1000 Scrap, 10 Iron).
• Remnant 2 DLC Bundles – This contains three DLC packs that will add more content to the game for an awesome gaming experience.

The developer did not go into detail regarding the aforementioned downloadable content. Additionally, it was mentioned that all DLCs are scheduled to be rolled out within one year of launch.

Remnant 2’s Ultimate Edition will cost a shiny penny since it has a price tag of $69.99 on both Steam and Epic Store. Other game distribution sites even sell it at a steeper price, as some go as high as almost $90.

To that end, the question remains if this upcoming soulslike third-person shooter is worth buying. This one really depends on how much of a fan the player is. If a gamer wants to be ahead among the rest and wants to experience the game earlier, including its DLCs, the game’s Ultimate Edition is indeed a steal.
