Remnant 2 The Forgotten Kingdom: Which difficulty should you choose for the expansion?

Remnant 2 The Forgotten Kingdom is finally out, giving players a new and exciting look at the forests of Yaesha. The new DLC is filled with new enemies to kill and weapons to find. Since it is meant to be played as end-game content, you might struggle to decide which difficulty Remnant 2 The Forgotten Kingdom DLC should be played at.

Remnant 2 is kind of a forgiving souls-like shooter, and while it may not feel like your traditional souls-like, it definitely retains the genre's notorious difficulty. While most such titles feature only one difficulty option, Remnant 2 gives you multiple to choose from.

We're here to help you decide. This article will explore which difficulty you should choose while playing Remnant 2 The Forgotten Kingdom.

While Remnant 2 can be challenging at times, it is never unfair. This title will always provide you with the right tools to overcome the obstacles in front of you. However, choosing a difficulty mode for The DLC can still be tricky since the game doesn't have an "easy" mode. The base difficulty of Survivor should be easy, but it plays more like a standard difficulty and can even pose a good challenge at times.

Here are all the difficulty modes that you will get to choose from in The Forgotten Kingdom:

Survivor
Veteran
Nightmare
Apocalypse

The Forgotten Kingdom DLC is end-game content, so you will likely have a beefy character ready to go before you jump in. So, playing Survivor might be a little too simple, and you should stick to either Veteran or Nightmare for a balanced experience.

That said, if your character is currently around level 10, and you're planning on playing the DLC, then you should opt for the Survivor difficulty. At Level 10, you might not have all the perks and tools required to deal with Remnant's never-ending threats. So, Survivor mode will give you a nice level playing field and won't make you feel overwhelmed.

In conclusion, these are the three difficulty modes you should choose for Remnant 2 The Forgotten Kingdom. However, if you really want a challenge, then you can always give Apocalypse a try. It is also important to note that you can reroll your camping and start with a different difficulty level at any time. So, test out what works for you and stick to that for a balanced and fun experience.
