Remnant 2’s third DLC promises return to N’Erud and a new game mode in September

A bit later than scheduled.

Souls-like looter-shooter Remnant 2 is celebrating its one-year anniversary since its release on July 25, 2023. Though developer Gunfire Games initially promised three DLCs within a year after release, it looks like we’ll be waiting a bit longer for the third DLC: The Dark Horizon.

We can expect The Dark Horizon to release sometime in September 2024. Though initially promised by July of this year, Gunfire Games has delayed its release to “deliver [players] the best possible experience”.

In the meantime, there’s no word on the next Aberration Domination event – the only way to efficiently obtain rare Corrupted Shards in Remnant 2. The first two DLCs were preceded by an Aberration event in the weeks before their release. This means there will probably be another Aberration event sometime in August before The Dark Horizon launches. Or at least, I hope so. I’m missing a lot of Corrupted guns.

What we know about The Dark Horizon

The Dark Horizon is the third and final DLC for Remnant 2. Since the first and second DLCs were set in Losomn and Yaesha, The Dark Horizon will take place in N’Erud. The previous two DLCs included some new maps with unique aesthetic flair, so it will be exciting to see how Gunfire Games decides to spruce up the desolate landscapes of N’Erud.

Along with The Dark Horizon DLC, Remnant 2 will be adding a new game mode and progression system that will be free for all players. Included is a teaser screenshot that shows a third game mode slot next to Campaign mode and Adventure mode. There are no other details regarding these new features, so we’ll just have to wait until the next announcement to learn more.

Happy anniversary to all Remnant 2 players and the team at Gunfire Games! I’m looking forward to diving back into Remnant 2 again.
