New Update Released for Remnant 2
Remnant 2, a well-known Soulslike RPG, has received an update that rectifies some performance problems and a multitude of bugs associated with different character types and weapons.
The recent hotfix for Remnant 2 attends to a number of bugs that were impacting the game’s performance and a few additional areas. Most importantly, the update addresses issues that players were encountering with various items and equipment within the game.
Remnant 2’s developer, Gunfire Games, introduced this update with an aim to respond to multiple complaints from players. Significantly, this is the first patch since the game’s big crossplay update on February 29.
In a blog post, the developers of Remnant 2 provided detailed information about bug fixes. These span from issues with character types to problems with weapons. Gunfire Games stated that the problems causing frame stuttering in multiplayer games when using certain weapons have been resolved. They also clarified that the UI flickering issue some players experienced when enabling FSR Frame Generation has been corrected. Moreover, players using the Handler archetype won’t face problems where their dog partner, Very Good Boy, would cause unlimited bleed on enemies.
Many issues with the Corrupted Savior gun have been addressed. The gun mod’s inconsistent power drainage, glitch in the Corrupted Nebula pistol’s Corroded status, Damage Over Time, and Nano-Bots have all been corrected. Furthermore, the inaccurate Impact Cannon in short ranges and problems with the Tainted Blade and Shielded Strike mutators have been amended. Lastly, the update comes with corrections to the UI.
As the hardcore RPG, Remnant 2 has shown considerable success this year. The game has surpassed its predecessor with over a million copies sold in the first week of release and a high number of concurrent players on Steam.
