Swapping out your Archetype in Remnant 2 will eventually become quite a common practice. Thanks to the ability to do so without starting a brand new character, you can experiment and switch up your playstyle to suit your mood or better synergize with your teammates. Besides the few you start with, there are many more Archetypes waiting to be unlocked by finding specific items in the randomly generated worlds, such as the Engineer and the Invader. Another well-hidden Archetype in Remnant 2 is the Alchemist, which is why we've concocted the perfect formula to help you unlock it.

How to unlock the Alchemist.

Just like how you had to throw yourself into the deadly fog to unlock the Engineer, unlocking the Alchemist also asks you to do something you would normally avoid.

Step 1: Travel to Losomn and go to the sewers in the Dran area.

Step 2: Find the sewer grates along the walls with bent bars. Some may have items placed in front of them.

Step 3: Stand your character right next to the grates for a few seconds. If you're at the correct grate, the Albino Bone Collector will reach out and pull you inside. If not, try another grate.

Step 4: Once inside, engage the Bone Collector and collect the Mysterious Stone it drops.

Step 5: Travel back to Ward 13 and use this item, plus 10 Lumenite Crystals and 1,000 Scrap to craft the Philosopher's Stone that unlocks the Alchemist Archetype.

Despite being one of the best games of all time, no iPhone version of Fortnite is available in the U.S. due to legal woes between Epic and Apple. While it remains a great multiplayer game on PC and console, a huge number of players primarily accessed the game via their phone. Thankfully Fortnite is a cross-platform game so you can carry your progress over to another system, but that doesn't solve the problem completely. You don't have to abandon your buddies on the battle bus for another game, though, because there are a few workarounds to get you playing Fortnite on your iPhone.

Astro Bot climbs on a DualSense controller.

Eventually, even the best PS5 controllers can succumb to the dreaded joystick drift. When this happens, it becomes a nightmare to play the best PS5 games since you will be constantly fighting for control. This mainly applies to the PS5's DualSense controllers, but drift can also appear in PS4 controllers. A controller with a drifting joystick essentially renders your games unplayable, and getting it repaired or replaced can leave you with no way to enjoy your console for days. Before going through any of that, here's how to fix controller drift on your PlayStation's joysticks.

If you're willing to pay a little extra, fixing this issue with Sony's DualSense Edge controller is a breeze thanks to it having a modular design that allows you to swap out the control sticks. If you're rocking an original DualSense, or older PS4 controller, the following steps are your best bet.

Three characters shoot at a boss in Remnant 2.

Aside from the focus on firearms and integrating some randomly generated environments, the Remnant series sets itself apart from other Soulslikes such as Elden Ring and Lords of the Fallen mainly with its focus on co-op. Both titles encourage you to team up with two friends to fight your way through the mutated monsters that await. After so many years of progress in terms of multiplatform games incorporating full cross-platform support, you might assume Remnant 2 will follow suit and let you make a group with anyone regardless of what platform they're on. Before you make plans with your squad, here's what you need to know about Remnant 2's cross-platform support.
Is Remnant 2 cross-platform?

At launch, Remnant 2 lacked any cross-platform functionality, meaning you were forced to only play with those on your specific platform the same way it works with Palworld. However, the developers eventually managed to add full cross-platform support to the game in an update and now you can play with friends no matter what platform they are on.
