Deep Rock Galactic News

Hi Miners,
As you can see we are busy hotfixing update 25 and we are not done yet!

With hotfix 7 we have tried (again!) to fix the black screen issue some people are experiencing - fingers crossed it is fixed now. The other big topic is that we discovered a bug in the logic for spawning enemies and since we fixed it more enemies have been spawning than was meant to. We have tried to normalize the difficulty now, but will continuously be monitoring the difficulty.

Another thing to notice is that when we do changes to anything related to missions and cave generation the Deep Dives may change, but you can still only reap the rewards for completing the Deep Dives once.
Cheers,
-The Ghost ship Crew
