REMORE: INFESTED KINGDOM News

Hey Survivors,

In the last Dev Note, we introduced the new tough foes starting from Act 2, the mid-boss Watchers. You’ll run into these in certain spots around the Guild District. Their main tactical feature is that they switch states every few moves you make, so you have to lure them into the right positions to take them down. Definitely a unique pattern to watch out for!

Now, having survived countless threats in the Guild District, it’s time to face a brand-new massive danger at its heart: Georg.



[h3]The Path to the Abyssal Vault[/h3]
As we mentioned last week, the Guild District is full of unique threats, monster-shaped barriers stuck to walls that block your way. To break through these walls, you’ll need “Gold Bars” you get from taking down Watchers.

Corruption lingers around those consumed by the Dark Shroud, and these monster walls seem to guard the deepest parts of the Guild District, the places where darker desires dwell. Passing through these walls leads you to the fate of the greediest among them.

Once you clear all the monster walls and push forward, you’ll find the massive vault of the Hanse Syndicate, the gang that dominated the district. The vault is a stark contrast to the city outside: dazzling piles of gold that are almost blinding, with a treasure room that spreads gold like sand.

Amid this surreal, almost ominous scene, stepping into the vault brings you face-to-face with Georg, the very embodiment of horrifying greed.



[h3]The Final Showdown with the Greed Rooted in This City[/h3]
When you finally face Georg, he appears in a grotesque form, like a massive Watcher swimming through a sea of gold. To Georg, you, the Survivors who dared enter his domain, are a threat that must be eliminated, and he turns to take you on.



Georg fights in a similar way to the Watchers, he preps an attack over a marked area, then after a few action counts, he wipes out everything in that zone. If you’ve gotten used to dealing with Watchers, you’ll probably recognize the pattern right away.

But unlike the mid‑boss Watchers, Georg is massive and has the advantage of fighting on his home turf: the mountains of gold piled around him. Just luring him into walls won’t cut it this time.
So… how exactly can you deal damage to him?

This is where all the tools crafted by the artisans of the Guild District finally come into play. While exploring the district, you’ll come across a special object called a Powder Barrel. They’re tricky to ignite and explode properly, but when they go off, they deal huge AoE damage. And if you chain multiple barrels together, you can trigger a simultaneous blast that delivers devastating damage to the enemy.



These Powder Barrels, the artisans’ trump card, play a crucial role as the only way to create attack opportunities against Georg. Remember how with the Watchers, you had to lure their attacks into walls to knock them over into a “staggered” state? It’s similar here, Georg can only be damaged if you manipulate his attacks toward the Powder Barrels.

Of course, that means you’ll need to stay near the barrels and bait his attacks. One wrong move, and you could take damage from both Georg’s attack and the exploding barrels, putting yourself in a deadly situation. That’s why taking him down requires careful planning, precise calculation, and a very deliberate strategy.

[h3]Rope Action Across the Sea of Gold[/h3]
Alongside the use of Powder Barrels, the trusty Grapple Hook, familiar to Early Access Survivors, also plays a major role in the Georg fight. So far, the Grapple Hook has varied slightly depending on the build, but its core mechanic, “pulling a target,” has always been central. This allowed creative plays, like slamming Blisters into enemies for massive damage or rescuing allies trapped deep in enemy lines.

In the Georg fight, the Grapple Hook is just as important as the Powder Barrels. The abyssal vault is filled with countless objects Georg has swallowed, and as the fight progresses, these objects appear and disappear, constantly changing the terrain. Some are heavy, some are light.

Heavy objects can support the player’s weight, so using the Grapple Hook on them pulls your character toward the object. This allows you to escape dangerous zones instantly without spending TP or action counts. On the other hand, using the Grapple Hook on lighter objects like Powder Barrels works as before, pulling the object toward your character. With skill, this lets you drag Powder Barrels into just the right spot and make a quick getaway, opening up all sorts of strategic possibilities.



This is how the core strategy for the Georg fight comes together using Powder Barrels and the Grapple. Watch the direction of Georg’s attacks, pull a Powder Barrel into his path, then use rope action to get out of the way. Of course, there are other tricky mechanics that can get in your way, but we’ll leave those for you to discover and figure out while playing!

That’s a quick look at the Guild District boss, Georg.
We’ll be back next time with more exciting updates.

Thanks, Survivors!

Hello, Survivors!

Up till now, we’ve introduced the narratives and distinctive play styles of the eight playable Characters.

In today’s Dev Bote, we’d like to talk about the enemies you’ll face throughout your journey in REMORE, especially a new type of threat: the Mid-Boss.



[h3]Mid-Boss: A Formidable Threat Descends Upon the Stage[/h3]
If you’ve played Act 1, you may have already encountered special enemy events that occur as you progress through each stage. For example, in the “Crimson Lily Plantation” stage, a swarm of Petals ambushes the Survivors as they enter the central area. Or in “Sunset Docks” you join forces with the Shadow Nun Mienne to fend off a sudden onslaught of enemies surrounding the Guiding Pillar.



Enemies that appear under certain conditions like this act as a sort of checkpoint in the level design. In other words, before moving on to the next stage, you’ll need to prove you’ve got the minimum strength and skills to overcome what’s ahead. On the flip side, it also serves as a bit of a warning, letting you know that this level of threat will become the new standard, and that similar types of enemies will start showing up more often from here on out.

You’ll run into events like this again in Act 2, but this time, we wanted to give you something that feels more immediate and threatening, a challenge that stands right in your way. That’s how the idea of the Mid-Boss was born.

A Mid-Boss is a special kind of enemy, a one-time battle event that doesn’t come back once you’ve beaten it. They block your progress in various ways, either directly or indirectly, and you’ll need to take them down to move on. For instance, you might need an item that only drops from that Mid-Boss to enter the next stage, or maybe during the fight, traps appear that drastically drain your HP until you deal with them.



The biggest thing that sets Mid-Bosses apart from the usual event battles is that they have attack patterns. Each Mid-Boss comes with its own unique pattern, and unless you figure it out, you’ll take some serious damage. But once you learn the pattern and land the right skills at the right time, you’ll not only deal massive damage but also get that satisfying sense of mastery we all love.

We won’t spoil every pattern here, it’ll be much more fun for you to discover and counter them yourself when you face these bosses in-game. Just one small tip: pay close attention to the buffs and debuffs that change with the boss’s state.


[h3]Watcher: The Tyrant of the Guild District[/h3]
The first Mid-Boss you’ll encounter in Act 2 is the Watcher. This creature, resembling a grotesque insect swollen on gold and jewels, is one of the toughest foes you’ll face up to that point, second only to Act Boss Olivia. It’s huge, has massive HP, and comes with the “Elite” trait, making it immune to forced movement, stun, execution, and suppression effects. In other words, brute-forcing your way through won’t work here.

To make matters worse, when you first encounter the Watcher, it’s protected by a trait called “Hardened Sense,” which caps the damage it can take at just 30 per attack, which really makes it a desperate battle. And to top it off, during this first encounter, a “Thick Dark Shroud” surrounds the area, cutting off all escape. Players have no option but to defeat the Watcher and light the Guiding Pillar.



Normally, we’d want you to explore the Guild District, stumble upon the Watcher, and figure out how to bring it down, that’s the experience we intended. But since this is the first time we’re showing off one of the Mid-Bosses, we'll give you a few light hints!

As mentioned earlier, Mid-Bosses have distinct patterns, and those patterns are triggered by various conditions. For example, certain attacks, especially ones with specific attributes, might set them off, or they might react when you spend a certain amount of resources like WP or TP. So, when you encounter a Mid-Boss for the first time, we recommend carefully observing its current state and experimenting to see which actions might provoke its next move.

The Watcher, in particular, can feel nearly invincible at first, it’s got such high defense that you’ll probably find yourself thinking, “How on earth am I supposed to kill this thing?” That’s your cue to start looking for ways to disrupt its defensive state by triggering specific patterns.

And if you check its traits closely, you’ll notice one called “Hardened Shell,” which includes a very interesting note: “Does not activate while knocked down.” That’s your clue, somehow, you’ll need to knock the Watcher down to create an opening.



Alright, let’s try attacking the Watcher. It curls up into a ball and enters its “Preparing to Roll” state causing a danger zone to appear on the ground, and it becomes untargetable. Now the question is, how do we knock it down while dodging its rolling attack? We move carefully, avoiding the danger zone and… Boom, there it is! The Watcher slams into a wall and collapses, it’s now knocked down.

While it’s down, we hit it with our strongest damage skill. One solid strike lands, and the Watcher immediately gets back up. Everything, except for its HP, resets to how it was when we first encountered it.

And just like that, we’ve seen one full cycle of the Watcher’s pattern, and with that knowledge, we can start figuring out a proper strategy to bring it down for good.



Once you defeat the Watcher, you’ll obtain a special Act 2 item called “Gold Bar.” At first, it might not be obvious what use gold could possibly have in Remore, where the spread of the dark shroud has completely shut down the economy. But if you keep pushing through the stage, you’ll soon find out.

Throughout the Guild District, you’ll come across strange, grotesque manifestations of greed, monstrous objects blocking your path. To move them out of the way, you’ll need to offer up the right sacrifice… and that’s where your newly earned gold will come in handy.



That was a quick look at the concept of Mid-Bosses, along with the first one you’ll encounter, the Watcher.

In the next Dev Note, we’ll be revealing another Mid-Boss, so stay tuned!
Thank you, Survivors!

Hey there Survivors,

In our last dev note, we introduced the newest party members joining in Act 2, the Mercenary and the Jester. Today, we’re taking a closer look at the third playable character: the Hunter.



[h3]General Richard’s Secret Project[/h3]
When the arms race between Georg and Richard began to heat up, Richard realized he needed to take stronger action in response to Georg’s aggressive tactics. To do that, he started preparing several plans, one of which was the development of a new weapon.

While Georg used his vast wealth to hire skilled mercenaries and quickly build up his forces, Richard was limited to the troops available in central Remorse. Not only was it difficult to pull reinforcements from across the region to the Outer District, but compared to the battle-hardened mercenaries who had survived countless hardships, REMORE’s soldiers simply lacked experience. To bridge that gap, Richard needed both a clever solution and the right people to carry it out, and that’s how the hunter Fia joined his ranks.

Fia was a highly skilled hunter, respected and trusted by many. Hunting wild beasts usually required stealth, precision, and independence rather than working in groups, so Richard’s was unusual, and perhaps a bit concerning, to her. Still, her keen planning, decisive execution, and ability to see several steps ahead impressed not only Richard but also the entire Outer District military. Over time, despite her preference for working alone, Fia began to open up to cooperation and camaraderie with others.

Fia’s experience with a wide range of unconventional weapons, the kind most military forces rarely touch, proved invaluable to the new weapon project. But just as the prototype was about to enter testing, disaster struck: the explosion of Memolith threw the entire Outer District into chaos.

As more people became consumed by the Dark Shroud and Richard’s troops turned into creatures or fell prey to them, Fia and a handful of others barely managed to escape, finding refuge from the spreading corruption. Under the leadership of the old knight Marshal and Fia, the survivors established a small camp, unable to advance or retreat.

It’s in this precarious situation that they finally cross paths with the party journeying to restore the light of Memolith.



[h3]Everything Goes According to Plan[/h3]
Fia’s combat style is built entirely around planning. From the very first moment she detects an enemy, she’s already analyzing their position, weaknesses, potential moves, and what to watch out for, and that’s just the basics. Next comes assessing her own team’s strength and figuring out the best strategy for the current situation. And if things don’t look good, she’s already prepared with a fallback plan or an alternative approach. Once every variable is accounted for, that’s when Fia truly shines.

Of course, careful planning isn’t unique to Fia, it’s important for anyone exploring Remote. But for her, it’s crucial. Many of her skills and traits are designed around reacting to enemy actions, through triggers or conditional effects, rather than direct, aggressive tactics.



Take Fia’s signature skill, Bear Trap, for example. It doesn’t activate the moment you use it, instead it triggers when an enemy steps on the trap or when you move an enemy onto the trapped tile. Because of that, it’s not easy for Fia to activate it on her own within a single turn. She often needs to bait enemy movement across turns or rely on allies to help trigger the effect.

These tricky activation conditions make Fia more difficult to use, but they also give her a unique playstyle. In battle, there are often moments when your team can’t spend all their WP or TP before ending their turn, maybe because of enemy positioning or terrain, leaving few options other than to wait. Most characters can only counterattack during the enemy’s turn, but Fia’s pre-set traps let her influence the battlefield even while she’s not acting directly.

That’s the moment when Fia’s planning truly pays off.



[h3]Unfair? I’m a hunter. You’re the prey.[/h3]
Just like a predator goes all out when hunting a rabbit, the hunter Fia stops at nothing to bring down her target. When the enemy moves exactly as she planned and is at their weakest, Fia’s bow strikes with perfect precision. Her unique trait Hunter’s Mercy lets her deal critical hits more easily against enemies suffering from negative effects. By using her bear traps or coordinating with allies to weaken her targets, she ensures every shot counts.

Another unique trait Cover Tracks restores 2 WP whenever Fia defeats a stunned enemy, allowing her to immediately prepare for the next strike. And when she takes down an enemy with a melee attack, she gains an additional Bear Trap charge. Since enemies caught in her traps are stunned, Fia can sometimes chain multiple attacks in a single turn — but her true potential shines when paired with allies like the Inquisitor, who can push or stun enemies, creating perfect setups for her to finish the hunt.



However, Fia’s main weapon, the bow, can’t hit enemies in adjacent tiles. To recharge her Bear Traps through Cover Tracks she needs another way to handle nearby foes. Of course, a skilled hunter like Fia always has a trick up her sleeve.

Her unique skill, Point-Blank Shot, lets her attack the four adjacent tiles that her bow normally can’t reach, ensuring she can strike enemies in any position. She also has the option of switching to other weapons. Her trait Masterful Swap enhances her attacks when alternating between ranged and melee weapons: it grants Ready to Strike to boost melee skill power and Rapid Fire to boost ranged skill power. No matter how tricky the situation, Fia is always ready with her next plan.




[h3]The Lone Hunter[/h3]
Even someone as versatile and precise as Fia has habits that can hold her back. Having spent so much time hunting alone, cooperation is necessary but still awkward for her. That’s why, even though her bow almost always hits its target, it can falter when allies are nearby.

Fia’s weakness Disrupted Aim means that when she makes a ranged attack with another character adjacent to her, there’s a 50% chance she’ll hit a different target than intended.

This includes both enemies and allies, which gives Fia a unique tactical quirk: it’s often safer for her to attack from a distance rather than next to teammates, even if she has relatively high health or isn’t specialized in counterattacks. Of course, this also exposes her to more enemy attacks, raising her skill ceiling. Strategic choices, intercepting enemies from afar, then returning to allies to plan the next move, are key to mastering Fia’s gameplay.



Hopefully that’s given you a decent idea of how the Hunter plays and feels! We’ll be back in the next dev note with even more exciting tales for you.

Thanks again, Survivors!
