Remnant Knights’ players will be able to obtain in-game costume sets for Edward Elric, Roy Mustang, Winry Rockbell, Major Armstrong, Lust, and Greed. In addition, true otaku can purchase items to decorate their RK dorm, including a Fullmetal bed, a framed wall poster, an alchemy circle rug, and an Alphonse plushie.
