Soulslike shooter Remnant 2 is doing almost twice the player numbers on Steam alone compared to its predecessor.

Remnant 2 Almost Doubles Concurrent Players Compared to Prequel

The soulslike third person shooter with melee combat Remnant 2 has already almost doubled it’s concurrent players on Steam. Gunfire Games’ sequel the dark fantasy post-apocalyptic worlds have amassed roughly 83,000 players on Steam. This peak is almost twice the amount of players that played the original title.

The original Remnant From the Ashes reached a peak of 48,000 players in 2019. The sequel has definitely surpassed that in just a day. The second game in the series has been receiving some positive reviews over on Steam as well as now the number 2 top seller by revenue with Baldur’s Gate 3 in third which hasn’t had its full launch yet. But BG3’s early access purchase is now considered a pre-order as we count down to its release on August 3rd. Considering the No.1 is game free-to-play, these are great numbers for Remnant 2.

We gave the new entry a solid 8/10 in our review, praising its gameplay improvements from the first. It’s also done well it creates its own identity in the pool of soulslikes out there, with lots of engaging multiplayer fun to be had with drop in/drop out co-op games.

Remnant 2 also has many enigmas to unearth as the developers have said that even after playing for 400 hours you may not uncover everything in terms of its secrets. But the game still remains “player friendly” when it comes to 100 percenting those trophies and achievements.
