What is Deep Rock Galactic?

A class-based first-person shooter for one to four players, set in the mines of Hoxxes IV. As a dwarf miner, you take missions into procedurally generated caves, dig for minerals, reshape terrain, fight alien hordes, and reach extraction using one of four specialized classes.

For you if...

  • +you want teamwork built around distinct class tools
  • +you enjoy replayable missions in procedurally generated caves
  • +you like shooting alien hordes between mining objectives

Not for you if...

  • you dislike repeating mission-based mining and combat loops
  • you want handcrafted levels instead of procedural caves

What players say

97% of 380,174 reviews are positive · 94% of 1,030 in the last 30 days

Players most often praise the cooperative class synergy, satisfying shooting, and procedural caves that keep missions varied. The most common complaint is that recent seasons add too little new content after long waits; some players also find the mining-and-shooting mission loop repetitive.
