People have been wondering whether Remnant 2 Ultimate Edition is worth getting. The base game can be purchased for around $29.99, while Remnant 2 Ultimate Edition will run you up to $69.99. The Ultimate Edition also comes with the DLC bundle, which gives you access to the newly released Remnant 2 The Forgotten Kingdom DLC along with all other DLCs released within one year of this title's launch.

While Remnant 2 Ultimate Edition might cost you some extra money, it is packed with content and is well worth the price. Let's take a look at what the Ultimate Edition contains.

Remnant 2 Ultimate Edition is packed with a ton of good stuff. Below, you will find a list of everything you can get your hands on with the Ultimate Edition:

  • Remnant 2
  • Elder Armor Set
  • Radiant Armor Set
  • Void Armor Set
  • Survival Pack
  • DLC bundle

While having the three armor sets from the original Remnant is a treat of its own, you will also get access to a DLC Bundle. This comes with three DLC packs and will give you access to those that are supposed to come out within a year of the game's launch.

The Forgotten Kingdom DLC is already on its way, and the third will follow in the upcoming months. So, if you plan on enjoying Remnant 2 for the foreseeable future, the $70 price tag shouldn't stop you from investing in Remnant 2 Ultimate Edition.

Another thing worth noting is the fact that Remnant 2 is procedurally generated. So, no level will ever play the same during your second run through it. This gives the game infinite replayability. Now, if you opt for the Ultimate Edition, you will get access to the DLCs with new environments and new boss encounters. This further enhances Remnant 2's replay value.

The bottom line is, if you enjoy Remnant 2 and can see yourself spending a lot of time with it, then you should invest in Remnant 2 Ultimate Edition. However, if this title doesn't seem like a long-term pleasure to you then dropping $70 on the Ultimate Edition might not be worth it after all.
