Gunfire Games and Gearbox Publishing have released a brand new Remnant II trailer that reveals a new character archetype coming in The Awakened King DLC. Viewers will get a firsthand peek at the Ritualist, a “master of pain and suffering.” The DLC will launch on November 14th on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
The trailer showcases the Ritualist’s devastating attacks and abilities and brings a new way of playing into the game. Players will have to find the item needed to unlock the archetype once the DLC officially arrives.
Ritualist abilities
- Their Prime Perk, “Vile”, makes enemies more susceptible to Status Damage and spreads their statues to nearby enemies upon death.
- Using “Eruption”, the Ritualist detonates nearby enemies and adds insult to injury by dealing bonus damage to those already suffering from Status Effects.
- To thin the herd, unleashing “Miasma” instantly applies Bleeding, Burning, Overloaded, and Corroded to all enemies within range.
- Lastly, “Deathwish” curses the Ritualist themselves. It forgoes standard healing and causes constant health drain but grants a heavy damage buff and substantial lifesteal.
Other DLC features
- New Storyline, Dungeons and Area Based in the World of Losomn: Delve deeper into the land of Losomn and experience a brand new storyline about the One True King – whose mind has been poisoned by the Root and is out for revenge against those who oppose him.
- New Archetype – The Ritualist: Leveraging status effects to punish foes, this new Archetype is a master of pain and suffering. More details on the Archetype will be revealed closer to the DLC’s launch.
- Many Items and Powerful Weapons that Enhance Gameplay: Outfit your survivor to survive this more deadly version of the world of Losomn by choosing from a host of new weapons and modifications, along with new items, like amulets and rings.
- New Bosses, Characters and Fearsome Creatures to Encounter: Mysterious threats and survivors, of unknown origin, emerge from the ocean depths and roam the streets bringing new challenges for all players.
