RISK OF RAIN 2 Finally Gets 1.0 Update On Consoles

Early access is done and the full 1.0 version of Risk of Rain 2 has been released for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

If you’re unfamiliar with the popular Steam title—which holds the coveted “Overwhelmingly Positive” rating with over 70,000 reviews—it’s a roguelite space adventure from Hopoo Games that has been a critical darling with mass appeal for gamers.

Risk of Rain 2 features an alien planet and player will have to figure out a way to escape, all while fighting through hordes of monsters. Here’s a hint. You won’t survive. This game is all about loot, gunplay, challenges, and a scaling system designed to keep players engaged throughout the whole experience. There are a lot of locations, bosses, and items.

Here are some of the features:

  • More than 110 items keep each run fresh and full of new challenges. The more items you collect, the more their effects combine, the more surprising some of those combinations might be. The more items you encounter, the more lore (and strategy) you’ll discover through the logs.

  • Unlock a crew of ten playable survivors, each with their own unique combat style and alternate skills to master. Learn the secrets of the Artifacts to toggle gameplay modifiers like friendly fire, random survivor spawns, item selection, and more. With randomized stages, enemies, and items, no run will ever be the same.

  • Tackle the adventure solo or with up to three friends in online co-op, or compete in the rotating challenge of the Prismatic Trials. Brand new survivors like the Captain and MUL-T join classic survivors such as the Engineer, Huntress, and-of course-the Commando.

If you were waiting for the full game to finally arrive, it’s here. So go grab it and start grinding. Bring some friends along with you as well.
