NEWS | Canine Combat and Teamwork: Remnant II Introduces Handler Archetype Class
GEARBOX Publishing and Gunfire Games have released a new trailer for their upcoming action-survival shooter title, Remnant II, showcasing the Handler Archetype class.
The Handler specialises in canine combat and teamwork, utilizing their loyal dog companion to attack enemies and provide distractions when the going gets tough. The Archetype's Prime Perk allows their companion to revive them or their teammates, while their Trait reduces all friendly fire done to all allies and themselves.
Remnant II takes place in a devastated world that requires players to utilise methodical and frenetic combat against cunning enemies and punishing bosses. Players can choose to go it alone or team up with two other friends to face the challenges together. With each new playthrough, the game generates a new world featuring a wide variety of locations, enemies, NPCs, bosses, and weapons.
The updated Archetype system gives players more flexibility in their play style and allows for better synchronisation of unique passive abilities and stunning powers in co-op play. Multiple Archetypes can be unlocked, levelled up, and equipped together, offering a wider range of play styles.
In the sequel to the best-selling game Remnant: From the Ashes, players will face off against new deadly creatures and god-like bosses to prevent an evil from destroying reality itself. Players will need to rely on their own skills and those of their team to overcome the toughest challenges and stave off humanity's extinction.
