Next is the new mission type, which this whole update is based around.

In general, balance with the new weapons is still a bit iffy, with some weapon mods not interacting correctly and some overclocks needing buffs, but I trust these are things that can be adjusted with regular updates and hotfixes. Even the scout’s DRAK-25, which on the surface is just another plasma rifle amongst a sea of plasma rifles, feels punchy and impactful thanks to an almost comically high rate of fire and great sound effects that make it seem like it might fly out of your hands if you don’t keep a tight enough grip on it. Manually guiding the gunner’s Hurricane’s missiles almost feels like flying a remote control plane strapped with a bomb, and the super slick lock-on UI for the engineer’s LOK-1 allows you to see the path of travel for each bullet - all the weapons just feel right. The Driller’s Corrosive Sludge Pump, a weapon that was immediately given the nickname “poop gun”, has become a huge hit with the community, with its ability to cover swaths of terrain in slowing, damaging sludge, and even has its own unique death animations where enemies dissolve into a pool of goo - it’s *awesome*. From a presentation and feedback perspective, these weapons are amazing. There’s four of them, one new primary for each class: the Hurricane Guided Rocket System for the Gunner, the DRAK-25 Plasma Carbine for the Scout, the LOK-1 Smart Rifle for the Engineer, and the Corrosive Sludge Pump for the Driller.
Let’s talk about those new weapons first, because they’re my favorite part of the update.
And with the release of Season 1: Rival Incursions, Deep Rock’s biggest update yet, we’ve gotten a huge amount of new content: new weapons, a new mission type, new random events, new enemies, and even a completely free battle pass. The addictive gameplay loop, the chunky weapons, the hordes of enemies, and the obvious adoration the developers at Ghost Ship Games have for 80s action and horror movies, makes for one of the best co-op horde shooters out there. I started playing Deep Rock Galactic just this last February, and I was immediately hooked.
