Over at PAX East 2025, Gearbox and 2K has shared some new info abut DLC coming to Risk of Rain 2, called Alloyed Collective – the third major expansion.
The co-op third-person shooter (that’s also an excellent roguelike) has had two prior pieces of DLC, but this third piece seems pretty hefty. The team says: “Alloyed Collective plunges players deeper into the Solus-controlled wilds of Petrichor V. Only one player is required to own Alloyed Collective to enable the monsters, Stages, and Items to appear in-game for the whole lobby.”
Here’s the key features for the new DLC:
- Explore 6 All-New Stages: From cliffside scrapyards to machinery-choked fortresses and buried caverns, each biome pushes deeper into Solus territory with dynamic layouts and environmental threats;
- Master 2 Survivors: One returns. One debuts. Both are built to survive the escalating storm;
- Command 7 Drones: New Drone types let you augment your playstyle with some wild abilities. With the help of a new station, you can even modify your Drones to suit your needs;
- Fight 7 Enemies: The Solus have been gathering — and building — as they perfect their plan. Now their creations are hunting you;
- Challenge Massive Bosses: Face a brutal new Teleporter encounter — and a final boss that reshapes the endgame;
- Loot 15 New Items: Expand your arsenal with a new haul of mislaid UES property.
If you’ve never heard of or played Risk of Rain 2, here’s the official Steam page description:
Over a dozen handcrafted locales await, each packed with challenging monsters and enormous bosses that oppose your continued existence. Fight your way to the final boss and escape or continue your run indefinitely to see just how long you can survive. A unique scaling system means both you and your foes limitlessly increase in power over the course of a game.
More than 110 items keep each run fresh and full of new challenge. 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.
Risk of Rain 2 is out now for PC and consoles.
