How to Unlock Old Clans in Monster Train 2

by

In the sequel to Monster Train, you’ll encounter five fresh clans, each with distinct gameplay mechanics, cards, and artifacts. But here’s a fun twist – it’s also possible to access five clans from the original game! To be more precise, the Hellhorned, Awoken, Stygian Guard, Umbra, and Melting Remnant are the additional clans you can unlock in Monster Train 2. This guide will walk you through the specific steps on how to do just that.

The Wurmkin is the only clan from Monster Train that is not currently available in the sequel.

How to Unlock Old Clans in Monster Train 2

Unlock Six Pyre Hearts

To access the ancient clans within Monster Train 2, you initially need to accomplish the task of activating six Pyre Hearts. For a clear understanding, these Pyre Hearts influence the stats and special powers of the pyre located at the train’s summit, with a total of thirteen such hearts available.

Regarding the method of acquiring Pyre Hearts, each one has unique prerequisites that range from triumphing in combat trials to successfully completing a Dimensional Challenge, and more. To find out what’s needed to unlock each Pyre Heart and monitor your progress, follow these steps:

1. Check the requirements for each Pyre Heart.
2. Keep track of your progress towards unlocking them.

  • Click “Depart” and start a new run.
  • Click on Pyre Heart selection on the left side of the screen, just below Allied Clan selection.
  • Hover over the locked Pyre Hearts.

As a gamer diving into Monster Train 2, keep in mind that you’ll naturally collect Pyre Hearts just by playing the game. However, if you want to speed things up, I recommend sticking to lower Covenant Ranks and focusing on meeting the requirements for unlocking these hearts. In fact, most of the Pyre Hearts can be acquired without even finishing a run or tackling tougher difficulty levels. A fantastic bonus? You’ll get access to the Hellhorned clan once you’ve collected the sixth one!

Unlock Awoken, Stygian Guard, Umbra, and Melting Remnant

In Monster Train 2, after opening six Pyre Hearts and the Hellhorned clan, players must meet certain conditions to access the remaining ancient clans. Importantly, meeting these conditions does not depend on successful gameplay runs. Here are the requirements:

  • Awoken: Heal 300 lost health. This can be most easily done with the Luan Coven, and the Wyngh’s Spirit Pyre Heart can assist with the endeavor.
  • Stygian Guard: Cast five spells in a turn five times. The Luna Coven’s Moon Ritual and Witchweave spells are great for fulfilling this requirement.
  • Umbra: Increase room capacity 20 times. Selecting Heaven’s Light after beating bosses is the most obvious way to approach this one, though the Bogwurm’s Growth Pyre Heart can also help.
  • Melting Remnant: Reanimate or Reform 50 units. Players who take the Lazarus League into battle should have no trouble unlocking this old clan.

In simpler terms, players can monitor their progress towards meeting these conditions either by choosing the Main or Affiliated Clans during the initial setup of a new game.
