Deep Rock Galactic Survivor – now on Game Pass

The call of the mines has sounded once more, but this time, you’re on your own.

The hugely popular and critically acclaimed spin-off to the beloved co-op shooter has just blasted its way out of Early Access and onto console and Game Pass in the form of DEEP ROCK GALACTIC: SURVIVOR.

DEEP ROCK GALACTIC: SURVIVOR, the single-player survivor-like auto-shooter, has launched in full today. This “Very Positive” rated Steam hit from developer Funday Games and publisher Ghost Ship Publishing is now available on Xbox Series X|S and PC.

You can purchase the Standard Edition for ÂŁ10.74, but in the best news for miners everywhere, it is also available Day One on Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass, and comes with full Xbox Play Anywhere support.

Deep Rock, From a Whole New Perspective

In DEEP ROCK GALACTIC: SURVIVOR, you will wield the full arsenal of the main game, but in a completely new, single-player-focused experience. It’s one dwarf against the entirety of the hostile planet Hoxxes. You’ll take on hordes of lethal aliens, mine riches, and unlock powerful upgrades to survive.

This is a game that flips the bullet-hell genre on its head. With auto-shooter gameplay, you don’t need to worry about aiming and firing; you just need to run and mine for your life as your character automatically blasts away at the wave after wave of alien monsters.

You’ll need to tunnel your way through procedural cave walls to collect precious riches and complete your objectives.

Complete the Mission, Get the Loot

Once the Drop Pod releases you into the oppressive darkness, you’re on your own. You must complete the mission objectives set forth by the Company and make it back to the Drop Pod in time to try your luck at even more deadly and lucrative encounters.

You’ll progress deeper and deeper into the planet, growing ever stronger, until you can finally get extracted alongside your hefty sack of loot.

Returning to a Beloved Universe

We are huge fans of the original game. In our review of Deep Rock Galactic, we called it “punchy, funny and a blast with friends” and praised its fantastic moment-to-moment gameplay.

SURVIVOR takes that brilliant universe and distills it into a completely new, but equally addictive, single-player experience that is a perfect entry point for Greenbeards and a fantastic new challenge for Greybeards.

Your Mission, on Any Rig

DEEP ROCK GALACTIC: SURVIVOR is an Xbox Play Anywhere title. This fantastic feature means your mining career can continue, no matter which rig you’re on. A single digital purchase on the Xbox Store (or your Game Pass subscription) unlocks the game for you on both your Xbox Series X|S console and your Windows PC.

All of your unlocked upgrades and progress are synced via the cloud, so you can seamlessly switch between platforms. You can complete a mission on your PC, then jump over to your Xbox to start a new dive without losing a single credit.

Choose Your Gear: Editions Explained

You can start your new career today with two different options:

  • Standard Edition (ÂŁ10.74 or via Game Pass): Includes the full base game.
  • Deluxe Edition (ÂŁ16.74): Includes the base game, the Supporter Pack, and the After Hours Pack, which will give you a bunch of prestigious character skins to show off.

Key Features

  • A New Single-Player Survivor-like Auto-Shooter: Set in the beloved Deep Rock Galactic universe.
  • Reverse Bullet Hell, With Mining: Run and mine for your life while your character automatically blasts away at hordes of aliens.
  • Deep Roguelike Progression: Complete mission objectives to unlock powerful new upgrades.
  • Procedurally Generated Caves: Each mission is entirely unique.
  • “Very Positive” Steam Hit: The acclaimed Early Access title makes its full, long-awaited debut on console.
  • Available Day One on Game Pass.
  • Xbox Play Anywhere Enabled.

The Drop Pod is waiting, and a planet of riches and danger awaits. If you’re ready to take on the lethal caves of Hoxxes, DEEP ROCK GALACTIC: SURVIVOR is ready for you on the Xbox Store right now.

Rock and Stone!

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore.
