Remnant 2: The Dark Horizon - How To Get The Genesis Bow

Remnant 2 is filled with puzzles and secrets waiting for you to discover and complete, and each one requires a different method of solving. With the last two DLCs for the game, we've seen that they continue to introduce secrets and puzzles, some of which are even more interesting and potentially harder to figure out than we might expect.

Here is how you can get your hands on the Nanoplated Armor Set Remnant 2: The Dark Horizon.

The Dark Horizon, which is the third DLC in the game, is no exception, as it features its fair share of secrets and puzzles that you can complete to obtain armor sets or new secret weapons. Among these is the Genesis Bow, which is locked behind one of the most confusing puzzles in the entire game.

The directions provided in this guide are based on the One Time Adventure of The Dark Horizon DLC, so if you've rerolled, the location might be different, but the puzzle solution remains the same.

How To Reach The Glyph Puzzle

The Genesis Bow is acquired through a glyph puzzle found in the Dark Horizon DLC, so first, you need to locate it.

Starting from the Waylaid Conservatory checkpoint in the Withered Necropolis, exit the room and follow the path straight ahead until you reach the glider. Use it to hover down and navigate through the gap in the wall ahead.

Here, use the wind vent to your advantage and make your way to the right, circling around the building.

As soon as you reach the next wind vent, use it to gain height and immediately turn left until you spot a faint glow where you can land. After you land, enter the room, and you will see the glyph puzzle you need to complete.

How To Solve The Glyph Puzzle

Once you interact with the glyph puzzle, you will see two rows of five symbols. The symbols in the top row change every hour in real life, while the bottom row remains static.

In order to solve the puzzle, you need to take note of the symbols in the top row and the time displayed on your platform. Then, you must wait for 23 hours and write down the symbols you noted from the past day on the bottom row.

Sounds annoying, right? Fortunately, there is a workaround.

Depending on your gaming platform, the trick is to change the symbols on the bottom row to match those on the top.

While the game is open, head to the settings of your platform and change the time to one hour back.

Return to the game and hit open, and the door should unlock, revealing the Genesis Bow waiting for you.

A couple of pointers to keep in mind if it doesn't work on the first try: you can try this method offline on your platform, especially on consoles, deactivate the automatic time or sometimes a restart can help as well.

We have tested this method on multiple characters across PC and PS5, and we can confirm that it works.
