Overall, the environmental team at Gunfire Games have done an incredible job at bringing these new locations to life. It feels like fighting at the edge of the world, as if I’m about to bump into the Night’s Watch as I try to take down another monstrously large rat-man. Reisum also features fights across icebergs, with chilly water waiting below to swallow you if you so much as roll the wrong direction. The billowing snow in Reisum can obscure the fight, adding a new element to combat (literally). The environment also plays a part in the combat, with snow swirling around, obscuring your vision as you try to take down the new rodent-like enemies. It’s a fresh change from the haze of the city streets, the burning black sun of Rom, or the twinkling faery appeal of Yaesha.Īs for Reisum, its snow-covered terrain rounds out the palette and is a treat to fight through after the bubbling and brackish swamps of Corsus.

There are sad willow trees drooping down, moonlight bathing the area in a pallid white blue, and decrepit buildings falling apart. Though it may only be a small area, the farmstead on Earth has this moody Louisiana bayou feel.

One of the most striking elements of Subject 2923 is the environments and the visuals therein. The creepy homestead area gives players a look at Earth outside the city walls. In terms of story, Subject 2923 is laden with bits of lore to read, as well as a few cutscenes where the main character talks with key individuals. As we’ve come to expect, this won’t be easy, and there are plenty of new enemies, bosses, and threats that will do everything in their power to stop the player from reaching their goal. The goal of this expedition is to find out where the Dreamers came from, how they’re connected to the Root, and ultimately, rid Earth of the Root for good. Players will be taken to a new location on Earth, a creepy new Ward, and finally a snowy mountainous region on a world called Reisum. Subject 2923 looks to finish off the story of the Root, a narrative thread that started back at Remnant’s release. Subject 2923 will let players finish what they started back in the base game of Remnant: From the Ashes. And now, players have the Subject 2923 DLC to enjoy, the final jewel in Remnant’s crown.
