‘Remnant II’ DLC “The Awakened King” Out Today [Trailer]
The first premium DLC for dark fantasy Action-RPG Remnant II in “The Awakened King” is out today on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series for $9.99. Fans can also plunk down $24.99 to get “The Awakened King” DLC, as well as get access to the two additional packs once they are available next year.
“All of us at Gunfire are blown away by our awesome community’s continued support and enthusiasm for Remnant II, and we’re thrilled to kick off a new chapter with our first of three DLCs,” said David Adams, President of Gunfire Games and Remnant II Game Director. “The Awakened King is the first major expansion for Remnant II, bringing a new storyline and area within Losomn, the Ritualist Archetype that we’re excited for players to try out and more. We hope players like the new DLC, and there’s more content to come!”
In “The Awakened King”, The One True King has awakened and is out for blood. Corrupted by the Root during his near-death slumber, the mad king sees betrayal at every turn and is on a rampage of revenge. Since his castle first arrived in a Dran coastal town, the tides are angry and the weather is chaotic, surfacing all manner of creatures from the depths and leaving many mysteries in its wake. In a brand new storyline, survivors must uncover the secrets behind The One True King by exploring a mysterious new area within the world of Losomn. In this strange new location, survivors will traverse new dungeons, acquire powerful equipment, meet unexpected allies and face new threats in their adventure to reach The One True King and defeat him once and for all.
Players that own the DLC can access it by going to the World Stone, choosing “Adventure Mode” then selecting “The Awakened King”. If players choose to experience the DLC through the Campaign instead, the DLC is added seamlessly to the main campaign and may or may not appear like any other storyline upon rolling a new campaign.
If you have a buddy that doesn’t have the DLC, yet still wants to join you on your adventure, don’t worry! Players without the DLC can still playthrough the storyline by teaming up with those who own it. However, to make use of any DLC-specific items they acquire, they will need to own the DLC themselves.
After giving fans a taste of the game earlier this year, Game Pop Studio’s debut title They Will Come dropped a brand new trailer during the Future Games Show, alongside with confirming a release date of Summer 2026 on Steam. For those who don’t know, the game is a cinematic steampunk horror adventure directed by Jeff Troutman – an award-winning Art Director with over 30 years of experience at studios including Midway Games and Petroglyph.
The game is set aboard The Endeavor, a vast airship and manufacturing site for hundreds of powerful automatons, and home to eleven-year-old Benjamin and his family of inventors. When crow-masked cultists known as the Wretched Ones seize the ship and take his family hostage, Benjamin refuses to give in. Armed with a slingshot and the hope that the dormant giant robot Talus is still somewhere in the hangar below, he sets out to take back everything that has been taken from him.
They Will Come is played from a close, cinematic over-the-shoulder perspective, placing players inside the tension of every encounter as they explore the Endeavor’s hangars, catwalks, maintenance tunnels, and observation decks – all hostile territory. Staying hidden is the only reliable path to survival: use shadows, environmental puzzles, and a scattered army of small automatons called Embots to keep one step ahead of the Wretched Ones. Talus – enormous and powerful but drained of his energy cells – needs Benjamin as much as Benjamin needs him; restore his power and the dynamic shifts, putting the hunters on the back foot.
