What a launch we have had with Season 01! The reception has been overwhelming, and you broke EVERY record for Deep Rock Galactic! We are deeply humbled by the sheer dedication and positiveness of the DRG community. Let’s look at the numbers and celebrate together!

Since its launch in February 2018, Deep Rock Galactic has sold more than 3 MILLION units across Steam and Xbox. More than 4 million players have played the game - this number includes Free Weekends and GamePass players. And during the first weekend of Season 01, the peak concurrent players (CCU) reached 41.733 and moved Deep Rock into the absolute top of the most played games on Steam. At Ghost Ship Games, we are very proud of this achievement since building up our player numbers was a clear goal for the Season 01 release. So thank you all for playing the game this weekend and hopefully for months to come!

As we have already stated, we will continue to support and grow Deep Rock Galactic for as long as it makes sense to do. And when we break our records, it absolutely makes sense to continue, so there will be more Seasons in the future and more news from us on the growth of the franchise. We have already announced a board game adaption, and within a month, we’ll have more exciting announcements for DRG, including an updated roadmap. We need to spend a bit more time planning out the roadmap, so please bear with us until it’s ready.



For Season 01, we are looking at the metrics and feedback and are adjusting the numbers behind the scene. The Performance Pass progression is close to our target of 1 hour per level - so that’s good. The new mission, Industrial Sabotage, turned out to be even more challenging than we thought it would be, so we have already tweaked it. The mission is supposed to be hard, so we will not soften it too much. The new weapons are where we received most of the feedback, but it will also take the longest to get them right. We will need to see how they, in the long run, settle into the meta and how much they are actually used. So, for now, we are mainly focusing on bug fixes and more minor tweaks, but no re-balancing yet.

We are, of course, also working hard to fix as many crashes as possible. We are dedicated to patching and hot-fixing in the weeks following a release, but with the record-breaking player numbers, we have seen more issues than before. With the help of the community and the well-oiled support unit at Ghost Ship, we will manage this in good order (please join our Discord if you are in need of help). Finally, a big thanks to all who helped us during the Experimental Branch phase, where many issues were discovered and fixed for the launch.


With 3 million times love,
Ghost Ship Games

Patch 1 fixes a bunch of issues reported since Season 1 went live, everything from spelling mistakes to tweaking the difficulty of Industrial Sabotage. There are also some that crash when starting the game. We are doing everything we can to try and solve these issues quickly, but some might take longer than others to fix.

Cheers,
The Ghost Ship Crew

A note to any Xbox/GamePass fans: Season 01 and the Rival Tech DLC will release on November 18th



Alright, Miners - listen up! We have confirmation: We are no longer alone out here.

A month or so ago, our deepscans started picking up energy signatures massing on the outer edge of the system. Within a week, automated scout ships penetrated the upper atmosphere of Hoxxes IV and started taking readings. Soon after, they started sending down supplies and construction materials - hectotons of it, across dozens of shuttles. Now, we are seeing full-fledged data collecting facilities being raised down in the caves - OUR caves.

In short, our dominion over Hoxxes is no longer total. Someone else is moving in on company territory.



----------------------------
With the introduction of a themed Season, several of the new features will only last in their current form while the season is running. Season 01 is currently expected to last for 4 to 5 months, so everybody will get a chance to experience the content. When the season ends, each of the season-related features will change somewhat, but never be truly gone.



Season Terminal
In the Space Rig, you will now find a new terminal aptly named the Season Terminal. This is where you can read Management’s all-hands briefing on the recent event, hand in your season-related loot, track your progression in the Performance Pass, and claim your rewards.

Towards the end of the Season, and probably a month in advance, a countdown will be displayed in the Season Terminal, so the end of the season will be known to all. This will also signal the start of the next season.


----------------------------
In light of this rival incursion, Management has begun a brand-new incentive program to distinguish our most dedicated employees. This is called the Performance Pass and it’s Deep Rock Galactic’s take on a 100% free Battle Pass. Season 01 brings you 100 levels of unlocks, challenges to complete, and bonuses to collect - all completely free.



Performance Points and Season Challenges
Earning Performance Points is how you advance through Season 01’s 100 levels. You earn these simply by completing missions, alongside hefty bonuses paid out for completing Season Challenges.

Your current Season Challenges can be tracked and managed in the Season Terminal. You can at most have three active Challenges at a time, and you will get a new Challenge each day. Most of the Challenges will be completed alongside your regular work in the mines, but one of them requires handing in the hard-to-get Data Rack, which can be obtained by completing the new mission, Industrial Sabotage.

Furthermore, during missions, you may recover Data Cells for even further bonuses. Do so by chasing down a Rival Prospector Drone and destroying it - or find a rival Data Deposit, hack it, and recover the Data Cell inside.



Company Scrips and Cosmetic Tree
Some Season levels grant you rewards directly, while others grant you Scrips. Scrips are Company Credit tokens that let you unlock a single field of your choice on the new and poetically named Cosmetic Tree.

The Season Level rewards and the Cosmetic Tree are packed with brand new Beards, Helmets, Pickaxe Parts, Paintjobs, satchels of Crafting Materials, and fat stacks of cold, hard cash - and to top it off, a brand new Weapon Framework for every gun available.

At Season End
The Performance Pass and the claimable rewards will be available while Season 01 is running. Afterward, any unclaimed cosmetics rewards will go back into the game as random rewards and other yet-to-be-implemented features for the future.



----------------------------
A number of mysterious prospecting facilities have recently been discovered on Hoxxes! The operations appear to be fully automated, and we do not yet know who is behind the incursion. The presence of a Rival Company on Hoxxes is unacceptable.

To complete this dangerous mission, you must locate the rival corporation’s towering Data Vaults, hack the connected Power Stations to take down the impenetrable Force Fields, and face off against the terrifying Caretaker and its minions before making off with the ultimate prize: The rival corp’s encrypted Data Rack!



Before Management lets you loose against our prospecting rivals, you need to prove yourself ready by completing the new assignment, SPEC OPS: SABOTAGE TRAINING. This assignment will be available for any miner that has completed the CONQUER HOXXES assignment. Furthermore, Management advises you to familiarize yourself with the mission details in the Miner’s Manual section before descending into the darkness.

At Season End
During Season 01, this new Industrial Sabotage mission will always be available on the Mission Map. When Season 01 comes to an end, the mission will likely be much less frequent and integrated into the game in a different way.


----------------------------
During regular missions, you may encounter the Rival Prospector Drone. The rival company is obviously trying to aggressively expand its operations. You must destroy these drones on sight, and collect their Data Cells.

While exploring the caves, you should also lookout for any Data Deposits left behind by the rival company. Get in close, hack the deposit with your new Hacking Device, and recover the Data Cell inside.



Please make sure to bring back the Data Cells from these encounters, and hand them in at the Season Terminal for a quick Company Scrip bonus. The Data Cells also provide you with a Performance Point bonus, so it doubles up!

At Season End
These new mission events will be active while Season 01 is running, and they will be somewhat frequent. Afterward, they will be much less frequent or even removed.


----------------------------
To help with the fight against this new lethal threat, Management has approved four new Weapon Contracts - which of course includes a full slew of Gear Modifications to buy, and 26 brand new Overclocks to find and unlock. You can get licensed for all four in the usual manner at the Assignment Board, but given the highly advanced nature of these new weapons, you will need to have attained Level 20 for the respective class.



ENGINEER: LOK-1 SMART RIFLE
Take a standard, high-grade assault rifle, bolt a semi-sentient AI Core to the side of it, and rig it up with several sophisticated tracking packages. Arm the resulting abomination with prototype rounds that interface directly with the onboard systems, and you have the aptly named LOK-1 Smart Rifle - a glorious bit of kit any Engineer worth their salt would be happy carrying.



DRILLER: CORROSIVE SLUDGE PUMP
The Corrosive Sludge Pump is what happens when the maintenance staff is left with too much time on their hands. A complicated network of piping, distillation bottles, and safety valves results in a very capable device indeed - lobbing globs of corrosive waste at those you disapprove of has never been so fun!



SCOUT: DRAK-25 PLASMA CARBINE
The DRAK-25 is among the newest additions to the DRG arsenal and is a bit of a technological marvel. Capable of laying down a blistering hail of superheated plasma without hardly ever blowing up in your hands, and comparatively cheap to manufacture! Management was quick to approve and sign off on this design.



GUNNER: “HURRICANE” GUIDED ROCKET SYSTEM
The Hurricane has quickly gotten a reputation for being a very crowd-pleasing weapon - unless we're talking about the crowd it is being aimed at. It stows a weapons package usually reserved for heavy-duty tripods into something a hearty dwarf can carry with ease and has even been upgraded with sophisticated tracking software.


----------------------------
The Rival operations are fully automated and fiercely defended by a variety of robotic entities. Reports have confirmed that they are susceptible to small-arms fire but are quite resilient. R&D recommends targeting the less robust vent areas, identifiable by a bright orange glow.

PATROL BOT
The Patrol Bot is a defensive robot from a Rival Company, with versatile traversal options in combat, covering both ground and air. It shoots a plasma laser from the particle accelerator placed inside its "head" - which is also more vulnerable due to the many vents. Its synthetic exterior makes this a durable, tough enemy, but the firewall protecting its AI software is easy to bypass, making it a perfect target for your state-of-the-art Hacking Device.

SHREDDER
The Shredders are small flying robots, that travel in packs and roam Rival Prospecting Facilities looking for intruders. A lone Shredder poses little danger, but together they can shred a dwarf to shreds in shreconds!

CARETAKER
R&D reports sightings of these giant structures above our new Rival's data vaults, hidden behind a giant impenetrable shield. The few miners who have returned alive report that the structure is the Facility Caretaker, an extremely dangerous machine that furiously protects the valuable data hidden underneath it. Bring your strongest arsenal for this beast!

BURST TURRET
The Burst Turret is protected by an impenetrable barrier, and lies in wait for intruders. They're set up around Rival Prospecting Facilities to protect the Power Stations that keep the shield around the vault intact. Once its sensors pick up intruder movement, it will lower its barriers and attack!

SNIPER TURRET
The Sniper Turret protects the Power Stations that keep the shield around the Data Vault intact. Once an intruder enters a room with a Power Station, these turrets will immediately set their sights on their target, and shoot them with a powerful plasma laser shot.

REPULSION TURRET
The Repulsion Turret emits a barrage of Plasma Force Fields, which apply an extreme amount of force to anything it comes into contact with. Although completely immobile, the turret is protected by a barrier when inactive, and the huge amount of Plasma Force Fields it emits can't be shot through.

PROSPECTOR DRONE
A Prospector Drone sent by a Rival Company and programmed for curiosity and thorough work, it researches every nook and cranny around areas of Hoxxes for mining potential. If attacked, it will call for help from its fellow drones, and flee to avoid its precious data being lost in the depths.


----------------------------
R&D has been hard at work cracking the rival robots. You now have a handheld hacking device that will let you hack rival patrol bots and make them fight for you. The hacking device will be active when in close proximity to a hackable robot.


----------------------------
To commemorate the release of Season 01, we will also be releasing a new DLC Pack - aptly named “RIVAL TECH”. The Rival Tech Pack will let you deck out all your guns in theme with our new enemies - no reason to let all those nice bits go to waste, after all!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1797340/Deep_Rock_Galactic__Rival_Tech_Pack/

On top of the set of new unique Weapon Frameworks for all your weapons, the pack comes with a matching Paintjob for your Armors, as well as a Rival Tech Paintjob for all other weapons and your favorite Pickaxe.


----------------------------
All the existing Weapon Frameworks have been updated to include the four new weapons, all of which have been added to the pool of items you can find in the Cargo Crates. Also, if you own the MegaCorp DLC, this has also been updated to include Frameworks for the new weapons.


----------------------------
MORE LOADOUT SLOTS
The update, of course, also includes all the usual under-the-hood improvements and additions - and yes, we heard you, that also means a few more Loadout Slots for you to toy around with! We have added two more Loadout Slots for a total of five. We trust you will spend them wisely.

CALLING THE M.U.L.E. 2.0
When calling Molly, if she isn’t present on the mission, the dwarves will have unique shouts to let you know she is not there. There will also be unique shouts for when Molly is on the way to the Drop Pod.

We have also added an icon next to the portrait of the player who’s calling for the M.U.L.E.

POWER DRILLS WITH ANGLOMETER
We got inspired looking through the community-made mods, and have added an anglometer to the Reinforced Power Drills crosshair.

ENABLED VR PLUGINS
Speaking of modding, we have enabled the SteamVR and OculusVR plugins to allow modders to play with them. Have fun!

CLIPPING ISSUES
Last but not least, a bunch of minor clipping and collision issues on the Space Rig have been fixed.


----------------------------
We have added Slovak and Arabian languages by community requests. As with most other languages, these are community translated and work-in-progress. If you want to contribute to the translation of your own language, then check out our Crowdin project page here. A huge THANK YOU to the hundreds of fans who have contributed so far and have made an extra effort to translate Season 01, so it is ready for launch today!

We're proud to announce our biggest update thus far - Season 01: Rival Incursion. Yes, that's right, we are, for now, moving to do themed Seasons instead of just Updates. Season 01 includes four new primary weapons, a new challenging boss-fight mission, and we're introducing a major new addition to the game: the Performance Pass - our take on a 100% FREE Battle Pass.



                                                      Screenshots from the new mission


For us here at Ghost Ship, this feels like a significant moment, almost akin to how we felt launching into 1.0 last year. To celebrate this and to showcase all the cool new features and concepts, we've put together a 6 minutes long trailer narrated by Mission Control himself.



The addition of the Performance Pass is to offer a regular cadence of cosmetics which are accessible to both new and long-standing players, as well as expand on the reasons to keep on mining - we gotta meet those quotas, Miners!

The Performance Pass contains 100 levels of free unlocks for you to pursue - from tokens called Scrips that allow you to pick and choose from a Cosmetic Tree, to satchels of Credits and crafting materials, to brand-new Victory Moves, and even a FULL set of new Weapon Frameworks for every gun in the game - including the four new ones.


                           Screenshots of the Performance Pass and the Cosmetic Tree (WIP)

To go along with Season 01, there is of course also a tasty new cosmetic DLC Pack. The RIVAL TECH PACK will let you deck out your guns even further in style - this time themed to go with the all-new enemy faction introduced with the Update. Go have a look here!




As always, we will release onto the Experimental Branch first, and get some last-minute feedback from those dedicated miners brave enough to assist.

Read about how to get into the Experimental Branch here.
Patch Notes for the Experimental build can be found here.

We're stoked to hear your thoughts on the new Update, and will be eagerly waiting to see how you handle the new threats on Hoxxes. Better load up - the new mission isn't exactly the easiest one yet... :D



We've also put together a comprehensive FAQ regarding Season 01, which you can read here. And as always, your feedback and questions are very appreciated - be it on Steam, Reddit, or on our Discord. We will update the FAQ accordingly when new frequent questions arise.


Season 01: RIVAL INCURSION - will release on Steam November 4th 2021, and on Xbox/GamePass on November 18th 2021.

With love
Ghost Ship Games
