Reception

Remnant II: The Dark Horizon's lacklustre story mixed with a shallow villain makes for a bland playthrough narratively. However, the new Warden Archetype, refined prism system, excellent new loot and new zones on N’Erud help pull the DLC up by its boots straps.

Remnant II: The Dark Horizon expands the arsenal of weapons and items and explores a new story on the planet of N'erud by introducing more locomotion mechanics that often complicate navigation unnecessarily. The Warden is an interesting archetype especially for solo players and the addition of the boss rush mode exploits the replay factor of the game...

Remnant II Dark Horizon is an extremely fun DLC that caps the game off in a brilliant way. Sure, there is no expansion to the main story but there didn't need to be. Instead, the story of N'Erud is finished in a fun way.

The Dark Horizon still doesn't approach the best highs from Remnant 2. However, it rounds out the DLC trilogy in a decent way, with an intriguing new location and strong Archetype.

Filled with secrets and dangers, Remnant 2: The Dark Horizon is a solid final offering for the three promised expansions.
