Remnant 2: The Awakened King Can be Played in Co-Op Without Everyone Owning the DLC

Developer Gunfire Games has revealed that the upcoming Remnant 2 DLC, The Awakened King, can be played in co-op multiplayer without all players owning the DLC. The studio stated on social media that players that don’t own the DLC can still join players that do.

The downside is that players that don’t own The Awakened King will not be able to make use of any of the new items that might drop through their adventures in the DLC. To be able to use the new DLC items, the players would need to buy the DLC for themselves.

Remnant 2: The Awakened King was announced earlier this month, and will be coming to PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 14. The DLC revolves around the One True King, who has been corrupted by the Root while in a “near-death slumber”.

The DLC will bring with it new zones, dungeons and story content. Players will also be able to unlock the Ritualist Archetype, who makes use of status effects to take on enemies. There will also be new weapon mods, amulets and rings in the DLC.
