Deep Rock Galactic News

[h2]Hello Miners,[/h2]

I hope you are hungry for EGGS because it is almost EGG TIME

That’s right! The Great Egg Hunt returns for 2024, and the forecast calls for a 100 percent chance of eggs. But that’s not all! Deep Rock Galactic employees will also receive the unique opportunity to complete extra unpaid work on behalf of the company.

The eggstravaganza begins on Thursday, March 21st at 13:00 CET.

Let’s crack it open and see what’s inside:


[h3]A fresh hat (made with fresh eggs)
[/h3]
They say you’ve got to break a few eggs to make an omelette. But what they don’t want you to know is that you don’t have to break any eggs to make a fun hat.

During the event, you’ll have access to the limited-time Great Egg Hunt assignment. Get that done and you’ll earn yourself a cash reward, crafting resources, and the new Basket Case headpiece!


[h3]Collect last year’s fashion
[/h3]
Were you absent during previous Egg Hunts, and unable to collect their seasonal styles? Fret not. We’re bringing back a veritable goodie basket of vintage Egg Hunt looks, available through the Last Year’s Spring Fashion assignment. Complete it, and the whole lot's yours forever.

[h3]Double performance point bonus
[/h3]
Some nincompoop at Longbeard Freight has fumbled a shipment of Mechanical Spring Bunnies, and now they’re scattered throughout the caves of Hoxxes. Management wants them back. Why, you ask? Not relevant. You’re paid to dig, not ask questions. Deposit one during a mission, and Management will reward your whole team with a Double Performance Pass Bonus.

[h3]The Space Rig is full of eggs
[/h3]
It wouldn’t be The Great Egg Hunt if the Space Rig wasn’t looking like the very picture of springtime festivities.

Once the event starts, you’ll find the Rig dressed up with charming pastel-tinted lights, darling paper bunny garlands, inflatable carrots, and many eggs. Please observe the eggs from a respectful distance. We’re also shipping up a dazzling assortment of springtime blossoms! Any blossom-related allergies are the employee’s individual responsibility, as we had to cancel sick leave payouts to pay for all the eggs.


It all starts on March 21st at 13:00 CET. See you soon!

With Eggs,
-The Ghost Ship Crew

Deep Rock Galactic and Helldivers 2 have a lot in common. They're horde-shooters about deploying to hostile planets where you shoot bugs—still, a crossover hasn't emerged yet, though that's not a shocker. Not only has the game been out for just over a month, it's also been bombarded with major server issues thanks to its runaway success. It's safe to assume that Arrowhead Games has been very busy, in the same way that the ocean is very wet...

[h2]Hello Miners,[/h2]

In case you missed our anniversary stream yesterday, we revealed the first details of what’s coming in Season 05!

And we packaged those details into a lovely JPEG, just for you. Here it is:


Like it says on the picture, this isn’t an exhaustive list of every single thing that’s coming in Season 05. This is just the stuff that we’re ready to share right now. You can expect more news and further details in the months to come!

Development’s coming along well, and we’re still on track to launch Season 05 in June. We’re really excited, and we hope you are too.

Hope everybody’s doing well out there!

With Love,
-The Ghost Ship Crew

[h2]Hello Miners,[/h2]

The 'Six Years in Orbit' Anniversary Celebration is now live in Deep Rock Galactic!

You can get the full details in the preview post – but at a glance, here’s what’s up:

• The brand new MK6 Armor Set is available for a limited time only! Complete the 'MK6 Armor Experimental Trials' assignment to unlock it.
  
• Snag the delightfully inflatable Year Six Party Hat through the Anniversary Bonus assignment.
  
• We’ve added a countdown monitor near the Assignment Board, to help keep track of when seasonal events end.
  
• A juicy Double Performance Pass Bonus is available for any dwarf who deposits a Year Six Anniversary Trophy during a mission.
  
• Free beers at the Abyss Bar! You should still tip Lloyd, though.
  
• The Space Rig is looking very fancy.
  

The celebrations run until March 14th at 13:00 CET.

ALSO – tomorrow, Ghost Ship Games is going live for our anniversary developer stream!

We’re doing something a little different this year. Instead of the usual setup, we’re putting more emphasis on the community. We’re bringing in some of the biggest Deep Rock Galactic content creators to our office in Copenhagen, where they’ll join us for the live broadcast. You can expect to hear from sniss, LazyMaybe, Explorian (fka DRG Historian), and a few other special guests. The chat’s open for your questions, too!

Plus, we’ll be revealing the updated roadmap for Deep Rock Galactic, with fresh new details on what’s coming in Season 5.

The anniversary stream kicks off tomorrow (Thursday, February 29th) at 13:00 CET, and you can tune in from Twitch and YouTube. We’ll have a recording available after, in case you can't catch it live.

Hope you can join us!

With love,
-The Ghost Ship Crew
