Gearbox Publishing just released a new update to Risk Of Rain 2, as the game enters a new set of circumstances with the Hidden Realms. The update has allowed players to unlock and assume control of a new Survivor, Acrid, a melee-range hybrid. The last of which uses powerful poisons to melt tanks quickly.You'll also get two new hidden realms, alternative layouts, more enemies, more loot, and some changes that the community suggested and they applied.
