It’s party time, Miners!
Believe it or not, Deep Rock Galactic has now been live for ONE WHOLE YEAR. We launched on the 28th of February 2018, and that means it’s celebration-time with this mini-update! Developing the game and expanding it with new features and content has been (and continues to be) an absolute blast, and we are very humbled by all the great feedback and reviews we’ve been getting from you. Thank you all for helping us turn Deep Rock Galactic into what we believe is an AWESOME game, and for being part of this wonderful community. Three cheers for you guys, for the future, and for ROCK AND STONE!
Party reminder: on Thursday 28th, we will celebrate the 1-year day with dev streams, AMAs, and other dwarven shenanigans. Read about it here!
Much love,
- The Ghost Ship Crew

WEEKLY ASSIGNMENTS
Weekly Assignments are a new addition to the Assignment system where a new Assignment is generated each week for you to complete. Complete it and earn a hefty cache of credits and minerals.
MORE HEADWEAR
Snappy Beret for your Gunner? Check. A nice, warm Beanie to cover up that bald, freezing head? Double check. A pig-iron mohawk or iron plates bolted to your skull? We got you covered. Thirteen new headwears have been added for you to look fancy in the dark.
FIXES FOR BET-C
A light ring displays the area of effect of BET-C’s grenades.
BET-C’s friendly fire damage (once converted, that is) has been reduced. Now BET-C feels a bit more like a trusty companion than before.
Improvements to BET-C’s friendly movement behavior, in an effort to make her stop sitting on top of the player.
SERVER LIST UI IMPROVEMENTS
The server list has gotten a beefy overhaul, for an overall better overview of the different active games. We’ve improved the filtering options, and added tooltips to better explain the different icons.
CAVE GENERATION UPDATE
More structures have been added to the cave generator which will result in a greater variety of levels in all mission types. Additionally, improvements to the underlying systems mean you should see more variations out of the existing cave shapes as well.
MISC.
