Deep Rock Galactic is one of those pleasant surprises that grow and strengthen over the years, and proof of this is that this cooperative shooter has been around for five years in which it hasn’t stopped improving. So to commemorate such a milestone, those responsible have decided to celebrate this event in style by giving away a unique experience that you can only relive for a limited time. You know which one is?
Some very tough space miners
Deep Rock Galactic arrived in 2018 with early access for Xbox and the truth is that it surprised. It was a cooperative shooter , with characters of a very specific class (gunner, engineer, tunneler and explorer) who must fulfill their role in the group and who have to extract minerals from remote planets full of beasts. The originality of his approach is that all the maps are procedural, they are generated differently in each game and on top of that they allow us to destroy them from top to bottom thanks to the tools that we carry with us.
Its success was not immediate but it was progressive and proof of this is the five years it has been in which it has been evolving and perfecting its already sensational staging, gameplay and fun. So how is it possible to get community involvement at a time like this? Well, very simple, going back to the original Deep Rock Galactic experience. The one that first arrived in 2018 before leaving early access in 2020.
From Ghost Ship they have announced the publication of the DRG Legacy Build, that is, from the same original client that was published in 2018 , in such a way that all players who want to know this wonder, or return to it, will be able to do so from 2 March on Steam, which will be when we have it available. Thus, as the company’s statement states, “you will be able to play DRG as it was when it was originally released […] Maybe you feel nostalgic and want to go back and experience those early glory days. Or maybe you just want to appreciate everything which has been added since launch by really seeing how different the game is today in comparison.”
You will also have special items
If playing with the original Deep Rock Galactic client isn’t enough for you, don’t worry because there will also be aesthetic rewards, the kind that one likes to show off when going into combat with three other friends, so you’ll have your available the so-called Supporter II Upgrade package that will also arrive on Steam on the same date. It is so beautiful that its creators define it as a “most decadent, luxurious and supportive” pack .
So now you know: if you’ve ever been hooked on Deep Rock Galactic , it’s time to relive old sensations , but if it’s not your case and you just got to know it right now, you’ll soon be aware of the time you’ve wasted enjoying other titles. less fun than this one where space mining has become a very risky sport.
