After a Broken Gearbox DLC, Risk of Rain 2 Finally Gets the DLC Fans Deserve — Now “Overwhelmingly Positive” on Steam

Meanwhile, Steam reviews for Risk of Rain 2‘s Alloyed Collective DLC, which launched on November 18, are listed as “Overwhelmingly Positive,” and players are praising the new content in the review threads. One user writes, “it is much, much more polished and optimized than Seekers of the Storm at launch (I’ve yet to see a single bug),” and another comments, “they did the impossible and actually fully redeemed themselves with this one.”

It appears many players are not only enjoying the update but are judging it more favorably in light of the previous DLC. One reviewer says, “I literally cried tears of joy playing this. Take it from someone who went through the trenches with SOTS, this is AMAZING. Simply AMAZING,” and another adds, “This is shockingly, unbelievably good and an insane increase in quality from last year’s SOTS. The new drones are awesome, the new characters are so much fun and fit right in with the rest of the cast, the new items are interesting.”

Risk of Rain 2, now under the Borderlands studio Gearbox, has promised to “take full responsibility” for a piece of AI-generated art it called a “mistake” — “We are sending the designer to the Void Fields as punishment.”
