With Remnant: From the Ashes an interesting coop shooter is coming soon, but somehow many seem to not have the game on their radar. It is surprisingly quiet around the title from Perfect World before its release on August 20 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
What is Remnant: From the Ashes? The dark “Seed” has invaded and devastated the Earth. Brave heroes are trying to find a way to stop the invaders. To do this, they travel to other dimensions to find a means to destroy the creatures.
- You will experience cooperative shooter missions in dark worlds with up to three players
- The worlds are randomly generated, making each game different
- You can jump into other players’ worlds and help them
- You collect resources along the way to create better weapons and gear
- Each monster type has to be defeated in a specific way, which also makes the fights tactical
It’s coming soon!
When is the game coming out? Remnant: From The Ashes will be released on August 20 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. You can pre-order the game on PC through Steam.
What does the game remind us of? Looking at the trailers and screenshots and reading the description, it seems we can expect a game that could be somewhat in the direction of The Secret World. Additionally, parallels to Hellgate: London cannot be completely ruled out.
What we thought of an early version, you can read in our preview report.
Where is the hype?
Why is the hype around the coop shooter so low? Actually, Remnant sounds pretty good. Fast shooter action in a post-apocalyptic scenario and teamwork seem to hit the mark. Moreover, the game is also coming for PS4 and Xbox One and at a time when everyone is waiting for new games.
And yet the game is hardly a topic in the multiplayer community. What could be the reasons for this?
- Remnant is a new brand and does not belong to a well-known and established game series
- So far, there has simply been too little shown from the game and too little talked about
- Players seem a bit confused about whether it is a story-driven game or if grinding is at the forefront
- The game will only be released digitally. Some interpret this as it being a “smaller” title and not a big AAA project
- Some are simply skeptical about a new title and want to wait for reviews and opinions from other players
- There are still too many questions left unanswered, such as regarding the controls and why there are only three players in a group
What do you think about Remnant: From the Ashes? Are you interested in the game? Did you even have it on your radar?
