Today, developer Ghost Ship Games released a new PlayStation launch trailer for its sci-fi mine-’em-up, Deep Rock Galactic, which launches on Jan. 4 for PS4 and PS5. For those on PC and Xbox One, worry not, as the game is already available there as well.
For those unaware, what makes Deep Rock Galactic’s launch on PlayStation systems particularly special is that it’s one of January’s PS Plus games, so if you subscribe to the service, you’ll be able to nab the co-op survival shooter at no extra cost. Pretty sweet, right?
Feel free to check out the new launch vid down below:
Complementing the first-person looter-shooter action gameplay is a ‘Heigh Ho’-style dwarven mining song, plus a bunch of accolades from various outlets weighing in on what they thought about the title.
In short, there’s definitely a positive buzz for Deep Rock Galactic, which should bode well for those who were on the fence about the game – or like me, hadn’t really heard much about it yet.
For more information about Deep Rock Galactic, here’s a brief rundown courtesy of the game’s official Steam page:
Deep Rock Galactic is a 1-4 player co-op FPS featuring badass space Dwarves, 100% destructible environments, procedurally-generated caves, and endless hordes of alien monsters.
1-4 PLAYER CO-OP
Work together as a team to dig, explore, and fight your way through a massive cave system filled with hordes of deadly enemies and valuable resources. You will need to rely on your teammates if you want to survive the most hostile cave systems in the galaxy!
4 UNIQUE CLASSES
Pick the right class for the job. Mow through enemies as the Gunner, scout ahead and light up the caves as the Scout, chew through solid rock as the Driller, or support the team with defensive structures and turrets as the Engineer.
FULLY DESTRUCTIBLE ENVIRONMENTS
Destroy everything around you to reach your goal. There is no set path so you can complete your mission your way. Drill straight down to your objective or build an intricate network of paths to explore your surroundings — the choice is yours. But proceed with caution, you don’t want to stumble into an alien swarm unprepared!
PROCEDURALLY GENERATED CAVE NETWORK
Explore a network of procedurally generated cave systems filled with enemies to fight and riches to collect. There’s always something new to discover and no two playthroughs are alike.
HIGH-TECH GADGETS AND WEAPONS
Dwarves know what they need to bring to get the job done. This means the most powerful weapons and the most advanced gadgets around – flamethrowers, gatling guns, portable platform launchers, and much, much more.
LIGHT YOUR PATH
The underground caves are dark and full of terrors. You will need to bring your own lights if you want to illuminate these pitch-black caverns.
Deep Rock Galactic is out now for PC and Xbox One, and will launch on PS4 and PS5 on Jan. 4, 2022.
