About the game

Hello Miner, and congratulations on joining DEEP ROCK GALACTIC! It’s the beginning of a bright new career for you.

We’re preparing to send you and your colleagues down into the rich mines of Hoxxes IV. If you’re a hard worker, a good shot and a reliable team player, you should have respectable odds of survival.

Award-winning co-op gameplay puts 1-4 players together to explore labyrinthian procedurally-generated cave systems, extract valuable minerals, and fight for their lives against alien hordes.

Play as four unique classes:

SCOUT: The nimble wayfinder. Light the way with your flare gun, zip around with your grappling hook, and be the first to fall down a really deep hole.

GUNNER: The heavy weapons guy. Great at turning alive things into dead things, and keeping teammates safe behind his impenetrable bubble shield.

ENGINEER: The defensive support specialist. Sentry guns, land mines and 40mm grenades help you keep a secure perimeter.

DRILLER: The living bulldozer. Carve through terrain and shape the work site with your handheld drills, and solve problems using your flamethrower and C4 charges.

Each class brings their own strengths to the team. Use your toolkits in tandem and work together to bring your whole crew home safe.

Explore an endless labyrinth of procedurally-generated caves – no two missions are alike.

You’ll need to rely on your wits and your traversal tools to navigate through narrow, snaking passages and vast caverns alike. Dig into 11 distinct biomes, each with their own unique cave formations and colorful (sometimes deadly) flora and fauna.

And with 100% destructible environments, you can shape the terrain as you see fit. Dig tunnels, collapse stalagmites and close off choke points to make your job easier.

Your work in the mines will pit you against the many creatures of Hoxxes IV who don’t take kindly to your presence.

Keep your finger on the trigger, and learn to defend yourself against hordes of over 50 different enemy types, all of which are keen to bite, slash and acid-spit you to death. Some fly, some crawl, some snatch you from above and below. You’ll need to keep your wits about you, and make sure your teammates have your back.

Unlock thousands of cosmetics, weapons and player upgrades, making for hundreds of hours of gameplay as you work your way up the ranks and become a star employee.

Deep Rock Galactic features six full seasons of additional content on top of the base game, and it’s all free. No time-limited battlepasses, no FOMO shop rotations, no gated content. The only extras you can buy are a couple DLC armors.

The Deep Rock Galactic Corporation isn’t known for its benefits package. But at least there’s a bar on the Space Rig.

Enough talk – it’s time to get to work, and join millions of other motivated employees!
