Risk of Rain 2 Seekers of the Storm DLC: Release Date Prediction, New Content, Trailers, & More

Defeating the final boss in Risk of Rain 2 won’t always mark the end of Survivor’s journeys, as the adventure will continue in the upcoming Risk of Rain 2 Seekers of the Storm DLC. So, keep reading as we dive deep into this new DLC, everything we know so far, including its features, its announcement and dev diary trailers, and when we might be able to expect a release date.

What is the Risk of Rain 2 Seekers of the Storm DLC?

Risk of Rain 2 players should feel right at home with the Seekers of the Storm DLC. In particular, its narrative begins at Providence, the game’s final boss. Survivors should be able to find a new green portal at this location once the developers release this DLC. Enter this portal to deal with new challenges, eventually leading you to the game's new antagonist, The False Son.

Risk of Rain 2 Seekers of the Storm Release Date Prediction

At the time of writing, official information about the release date of the Seekers of the Storm DLC for Risk of Rain 2, despite its first reveal coming in 2023, is virtually non-existent. The game's developers have remained silent regarding this matter since the DLC’s reveal during the Festival of Gup on November 8, 2023. Additionally, checking the DLC’s Steam page shows that it's "Coming Soon." Note that the first Risk of Rain 2 paid DLC, Survivors of the Void, was released a little over 18 months after the game's full release. If so, the speculated for the Seekers of the Storm expansion should be around the same period as the time it took to release the first DLC. With that, we would expect the Risk of Rain 2 Seekers of the Storm release date to come somewhere around May or June 2025. However, some players within the game’s community also speculate that this DLC’s release date should land around October of this year - and with no official info out just yet, we'll have to wait and see when a real confirmation finally comes. We'll update this page with the latest information as it comes.
