Remnant 2 is finally capping off its trilogy of planned DLC with The Dark Horizon, which provides players with additional areas to explore in one of the most interesting biomes from the base game, as well as the new Warden archetype to find and equip. Whether you’ve played the two previous DLCs or simply want to check out what this fresh batch of content brings to the table, we’ll tell you how you can get started below.

How to start The Dark Horizon DLC

The first thing you’ll need to do to access The Dark Horizon DLC is to be certain you’ve purchased and downloaded it. It’s available as a standalone version from your respective storefront for $10, or you can pick up the $25 bundle, which includes the two previous DLCs as well: The Awakened King and The Forgotten Kingdom. We’d recommend opting for the latter, as it’s the best deal and will net you all three DLCs for $5 cheaper, each offering you new areas, archetypes, weapons, and more.

Once you’ve purchased and downloaded The Dark Horizon DLC, you can access it by visiting a World Stone and opening Adventure Mode — provided that you’ve completed the N’erud biome at least once, that is. With that out of the way, simply select “Reroll Adventure Mode” and choose The Dark Horizon: One Shot. This will grant you exclusively DLC content your first time through rather than filling your game with older content. However, after you complete this initial run, any subsequent playthroughs of N’erud will piece together DLC areas with main campaign content.

How to use a keyboard and mouse on PS5

There are tons of great PS5 controller options out there, and even the default DualSense has some great features. However, for anyone who primarily plays on PC with a keyboard and mouse, there's no controller that can match the level of precision and number of buttons as that setup. PlayStation doesn't make it a well-known thing, but you can actually get the best of both worlds by using your PC setup on the PS5 very easily. Here's how to bring your PC skills over to console.

Don’t expect PlayStation to abandon consoles for PCs any time soon

Sony has recently had a lot of success publishing its first-party PlayStation 5 games to PC, but that doesn't mean the company is going to become a PC company first.

In an interview with Japanese publication Nikkei (via Video Games Chronicle), Hideaki Nishino, head of Sony Interactive Entertainment's Platform Business Group, said that that Sony will continue to make content for PCs, but "there is no doubt" that consoles will continue to be the priority.

Unknown 9: Awakening is already a thrilling superhero spectacle
The hero of Unknown 9 Awakening: floats through a street.

Unknown 9: Awakening feels like something out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A hero with a dead mentor figure? Check. Superpowers? Check. Mysterious organizations that want to use those powers for nefarious purposes? I don't even need to say it, do I.

Haroona, a woman who can channel psychic powers from a parallel dimension called the Fold, leads the story with her strong sense of justice and arsenal of abilities. Clichés aside, what impressed me most about Unknown 9 during a 60-minute hands-on demo at PAX West was its worldbuilding and how it encouraged me to experiment with Haroona's powers. I'll admit, I was confused about how to juggle them within the first few minutes of the preview. But once I adapted, I was swapping between the buttons without an issue, even if I accidentally missed a hit or two.
