Remnant 2's main campaign takes players across multiple worlds, each of which features different stories tied together by a single goal: stopping the Root once and for all. Among these worlds is N'erud, a desolate, sci-fi hellscape that's standing on the precipice of obliteration.

In one of the possible story paths on this planet, an ominous, disembodied voice will task players with saving a race known as the Drzyr from total annihilation by finding a canister of Soul Sparks, the last vestiges of their dying race. This task is a lot simpler than it sounds, but like most things in Remnant 2, it isn't exactly easy.

The first thing players need to do is find the second open area in N'erud by finishing the first dungeon they encounter after exiting the prison. These areas may vary from playthrough to playthrough, but the objective will stay the same.

The Soul Sparks players are looking for are not inside any of the potential dungeons in the second area. Instead, it is hidden in an underground vault somewhere in the toxic desert. These vaults appear as pyramid-like structures with entrances that lead to subterranean facilities.

There may be more than one of these vaults on the map, and the one players need to raid is the one with an airlock door, similar to the ones inside the prison. Enter the facility and grab the Soul Spark canister in the main chamber. This usually triggers a wave of zombies to spawn—kill them all as the exit door will need time to open again.

Finding the Soul Sparks is as straightforward as it sounds, but it's made difficult by N'Erud's harsh environment. Poor visibility and similar-looking dunes of sand don't exactly help with finding the right underground bunker. The map on N'Erud is also hard to read because there are no hard walls to serve as borders, making fog of war identification that much harder.

Players who are having trouble finding the right bunker will just have to keep roaming the wasteland while hitting all the vaults they can find. Check the immediate areas in front of dungeon entrances or run along the edge of the death fog in hopes of unlocking a new, undiscovered area of the map.

After finding the Soul Sparks, return to the prison and give it to the mysterious speaker behind the glass wall to trigger an important cutscene.

Remnant 2 is available July 25 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
