REMNANT II, the follow-up to the best-selling Remnant: From the Ashes, is breaking franchise records for Gearbox Publishing and developer Gunfire Games. Gearbox Publishing announced today that ReEMNANT II has sold more than one million units across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. To put things in perspective, it took over two months for the first game to reach these numbers. REMNANT II has only been out for a week.
“REMNANT II exceeded our expectations. As a commercial and critical hit, we’re incredibly proud of the Gunfire team and everyone here at Gearbox Publishing who brought this title to life,” said Yoon Im with Gearbox Publishing. “As excited as we are, we’re incredibly thankful to the Remnant community who supported us and the Gunfire team during development. To the new Remnant fans who joined our community in the past week, we’re thrilled you joined us on this journey.”
“To everyone who helped us achieve this amazing milestone, thank you for your unwavering support,” said David Adams of Gunfire Games. “This was a multi-year journey for us and we couldn’t be happier to see fans having such a great time with a game we put our heart and soul into.”
REMNANT II evolves the co-op survival with new unseen worlds filled with deadly surprises and encounters. The sequel features a dynamically generated world filled with branching quest lines, unique loot, and overwhelming odds that encourage exploration and replayability. Players can define their own playstyle with an expanded Archetype class system and a wide assortment of guns, armor, and special augmentations to overcome hard-fought challenges to stave off humanity’s extinction. The game can be played alone or in three-person co-op.
The sales milestone isn’t the only thing that REMNANT II broke. The title also more than doubled the number of concurrent players at launch, breaking its own franchise record.
