Captain awaits your orders, say ahoy to this new unlockable character in the monster-killing frenzy world.
Risk of Rain 2 finally rolls out of Steam's early access as it receives update 1.0, bringing with it is the tenth unlockable in-game character, Captain. Breeze through the gameplay, unlock the newbie and unleash hell on aliens and monsters in this roguelike game.
Hoopoo and PlayEveryWare's Risk of Rain 2 was made available on Steam, Microsoft, Nintendo Switch, and consoles, PlayStation 4 and Xbox, initially as early access on 2019. However, it is officially launched as a full content game last August 11, 2020, when developers rolled out update 1.0.
Rock Paper Shotgun notes that the 1.0 update gave the roguelike game a proper ending. The third-person monster-killing frenzy survival game is initially never-ending gameplay that let players explore the map, kill off hordes and swarms of varying difficulty, and pick-up weapons and upgrades that build up stats. However, as much fun and free this is, the game would randomly kill a player with a "fireball".
This changed when the game received update 1.0 and gives the roguelike a boss and an ending. The ending, however, does not signify the end of the game as it brings the tenth character for players to use. Risk of Rain introduces 'Captain' a sleek guy sporting a long coat that hides a hybrid rifle-shotgun underneath and possesses the ability to call for a supply drop from the orbit.

Game Revolution says that it's easy. Just finish the game. The end signifies a new beginning in Risk of Rain 2 as it gives players a new character with its unique abilities to utilize for the gameplay. The 1.0 update adds a new final boss that concludes the character's journey in the dystopian planet ran by uncivilized aliens and monsters.
SPOILER WARNING: to thoroughly explain how to obtain 'Captain,' a handful of details regarding the new update needs to be revealed. In order to get the new character,
- Players will have to reach a place known as 'Commencement.'
- This requires players to get their hands on a 'Primordial Teleporter' that is available in the 5th stage of the roguelike.
- At the stage's end, players are then brought to face the boss, Beetle Mother a.k.a. Swarm Queen that is believed to be the final boss.
There you have it, the game ends there and rolls credits. After then, you will be notified on the new character, 'Captain,' and you will be then free to use him and his abilities throughout the game.
