Risk of Rain 2’s first expansion is coming, snipers can take aim


If you thought things had gotten dark for the roguelike game Risk of Rain 2, think again. Developer Hopoo Games has announced the first of two new survivors, including the first expansion for Adventure in the Rain 2, dubbed “Void Survivor.” The new survivor is a sniper named Railgunner, who will be available when the DLC launches on March 1.

Railgunner uses the M99 Sniper Rifle, a unique gear in Rain in the Rain 2, as it switches you into first-person view to aim its high-powered scope. Using the scope, you’ll be able to target your enemy’s weak spot, dealing 1,000% damage and guaranteeing a critical hit. Since you’ll always get a crit this way, any increased crit chance the Railgunner gets from items you pick up will translate to increased crit damage.

The M99 also has an active loader, similar to the type introduced in Gears of War. If your reload time is perfect, you will add another 500% to your base damage boost. its not bad, right?

Here’s the trailer introducing Railgunner:

To round out her skills, Railgunner has the XQR Smart Round System, which takes care of enemies that are too close and personal while you’re sniping. She can place a mine-like concussion device that creates a gravitational explosion to push enemies away – but it can also be used by Railgunner herself as a kind of trampoline. Finally, her special ability is Supercharge, which provides 4,000% base damage and 150% weak spot damage to the railgun. The downside is that her weapon takes 5 seconds to recharge after using the ability – so it’s best to keep some concussion devices around so you can run away quickly after you fire it.
