Deep Rock Galactic mixes incredible FPS action, addictive exploration, and endlessly entertaining gallows humour that combine to create one of the most compelling co-op experiences available in video games. Beautiful environments powered by incredible procedural generation will have me teaming up with friends to return to the hostile subterranean world of Hoxxes IV again, and again, and again.

Rock and stone forever! This Deep Rock Galactic review highlights the exciting gameplay full of humorous camaraderie. With a swath of lackluster multiplayer looters to choose from, is Deep Rock a diamond in the rough for the genre?

Deep Rock Galactic is a great mix of Minecraft and Starship Troopers with excellent gameplay and variety. However, graphics can occasionally be slightly off and exits for the drop pods will on rare occasion be inaccessible. This is an easy game to get started in and easy to get hooked on.

There is of course complexity and depth to be found, Deep Rock Galactic is as far from Pong as any videogame of the past few decades. But the general flow of a mission beneath the surface follows a pattern of exploration, mining, and combat even if the goal is to source x amount of shiny green Morkite or find and destroy a pair of Dreadnoughts.

Deep Rock Galactic is the best kind of four-player co-op game. Exciting combat, great missions, and lots of upgrades make this one a winner.

Deep Rock Galactic is proof enough that keeping focus and executing on a single idea can lead to excellence. Ghost Ship Games debut title is cooperative bliss, and a must-play for all fans of the genre. For Rock and Stone!

Deep Rock Galactic is a hugely fun multiplayer romp full of humour, character, dramatic action, and fun foes. It’s made all the better for its excellent voice acting, creative weapon design, and extensive customisation options. It’s a game that the devs have clearly enjoyed making and that makes it all the better for playing.

Deep Rock Galactic has all what it takes to become an iconic co-op action game. But only the time will tell if it really is.

Dive into the depths of the planet Hoxxes, plunder its natural wealth, and don't get eaten by spiders. If you fail, no one will save you

Deep Rock Galactic is an outstanding cooperative, in which one moment you will be drinking beers with your companions, and the next you will be riddling enemies. With an enormous amount of detail, Ghost Ship Games' debut feature becomes a must-have, and the studio becomes a studio to follow from now on.

There are few better examples in the industry than Ghost Ship Game’s use of Early Access. Deep Rock Galactic is a tightly-honed and laser-focused cooperative FPS that stands toe-to-toe with the best in the genre. With a mix of excellent gameplay, solid graphics, and brilliant gameplay concepts, I strongly recommend it to anyone looking to play either solo or especially with their friends.

Deep Rock Galactic is a great game with only a few errors. The lack of any story and similar enemies are the only reasons why this game is not an absolutely perfect title for gamer groups with 4 members.

A fantastic cooperative experience that delves deep into one narrow corner of fantasy tropes – the dwarven love of hard work and pretty rocks.

Ultimately, Deep Rock Galactic is a fantastic game for those who like Left 4 Dead or games like it. The squad based missions are infinitely more fun with friends though, and similar to Sea of Thieves the game is more enjoyable with others.

If we were to define a range, and then define Deep Rock Galactic using that range, we would have Minecraft on one side, and Left 4 Dead and Killing Floor on the other. Deep Rock Galactic is a game very similar, yet very different game from these two extremes. If you grab freedom of choice and action of Minecraft, mix it with some Objective-based gameplay from Left 4 Dead and add the theme of survival but not a lot; As a result, you’ll be experiencing Deep Rock Galactic – An exemplary combination of teamwork and free playstyle, which is executed optimally and has a scent of Dwarven sarcasm. Although, due to essential differences DRG has with the extremes of its range, this title can be a Hit-or-Miss, even for those who absolutely love Co-Op games. The biggest difference is the lack of a grand purpose and a final goal for the players

Deep Rock Galactic is an innovative first person shooter in which we will live the adventures of some cute dwarves. Varied missions, cooperative for 4 people and fun is what awaits us in this title.

Ooh, aah, that's how it always starts, then later there's running and screaming. Deep Rock Galactic can be deceptively easy going at times, right up until the swarms of bugs come crawling out of the inky darkness to besiege you and your friends. Who knew space dwarf mining could be so fun?
