The upcomingRemnant 2has just revealed its newest class today: the swift and deadly Gunslinger. This new class will offerRemant 2players the ability to deal with enemies at a distance and have almost infinite ammo, several guns at their disposal, and high damage output.
Remnant 2is the sequel toRemnant: From the Ashes, which was originally launched back in 2019. The Soulslike shooter had a pretty good reception, and it was able to sell over 3 million copies over the years. Last year,Remnant 2was announced during The Game Awards. The title will have an emphasis on co-op, and allow gamers to fight severalDark Souls-inspired bosses in a vast number of dynamically generated locations.

The new Gunslinger class is all about shooting quickly and non-stop while players watch the carnage. The Gunslinger will shoot much faster than any other class available inRemnant 2and will be focused on fighting enemies at mid-range at incredible speeds. The class was compared to the Ex-Cultist from the previous game, but instead of having a support role, it’s a fully DPS now. So, players who expectedRemnant 2’s combat to be improvedwill be satisfied with the class.
According to IGN’s interview with Ben Cureton, the main designer behind the title, the devs planned to create a class that was “all about weapons.” The class’ gimmick is to constantly switch weapons and almost never run out of ammo. Players who were expectingsome brand-new features inRemnant 2can use the class Prime Perk: Loaded, which gives them the ability to reload all weapons at the same time, getting some precious seconds to give more damage to enemies. Another highlight is an ability called Quick Draw, which will see the Gunslinger pulling out their six-shooter and firing automatically on targets.
So far,Remnant 2has strongResident Evil 4meets Soulslike vibes, and nobody can complain about how great the game is looking. However, if the developers want to stand out among the competition, they will need to keep working hard on specific gameplay for each class forRemnant 2 tobe more than justDark Soulswith guns. Fortunately, with the design of this class, it seems that they are nailing it. Even with other shooters such asDestiny 2and recent Soulslikes such asWo Long: Fallen Dynastyas competitors,Remnant 2looks set to offer excellent gameplay and a vast range of player options.
Remnant 2is expected to release in 2023 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
