Original Risk of Rain 2 devs share concerns about new Gearbox DLC

Original Risk of Rain 2 devs share concerns about new Gearbox DLC

Risk of Rain 2 was originally published by Gearbox Software, the long-running studio behind Borderlands, the Half-Life expansions, and the erstwhile Brothers In Arms series. In November 2022, however, Gearbox purchased the rights to the roguelike game outright; three days ago, on Tuesday August 27, Gearbox released its first Risk of Rain 2 DLC, Seekers of the Storm. It hasn’t been going well. Only 30% of user reviews on Steam are favorable, and the DLC has a damning ‘mostly negative’ rating. Now, developers from the original Risk of Rain 2 base game have shared comments about the state of the new DLC, alongside Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford.
