Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core
Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core is a 1-4 player co-op first-person roguelite action shooter developed and published by Ghost Ship Games. Set in the dangerous depths of Hoxxes IV, the game begins following 'The Greyout' — a catastrophic event where all deep-mining facilities suddenly went dark. As elite Reclaimer operatives, players drop into abandoned multi-stage industrial facilities to investigate the corruption, harvest the volatile new mineral Expenite, and eradicate the transdimensional threat known as the Corespawn. Featuring distinct Reclaimer classes, mid-run workbench drafting, elevator holdouts, and escalating Core Agitation, Rogue Core delivers a fast-paced, high-stakes tactical roguelite experience.

Key Systems
- Multi-Stage Facility Descent — Missions are structured as multi-level industrial descents ranging from 3 to 10 stages. Teams fight through hazardous facility sectors, call in the heavy Stage Elevator, and survive tense holdout defense events to plunge deeper into Hoxxes.
- Five Reclaimer Operative Classes — Ditching the base miner roles, Rogue Core introduces five specialized Reclaimers: Guardian (Tank/CC), Slicer (Melee Assassin), Falconer (Electric DPS/Remote Revive), Spotter (Crit Marks/Scout), and Retcon (Survival/Time Rewind/Rage).
- Expenite Economy & Mid-Run Drafting — Expenite is the lifeblood resource gathered during runs. Depositing it at R.E.P.D. workbench terminals triggers draft selections for stacking stat bonuses, elemental imbuements, weapon modifications, and game-changing passive perks.
- The Corespawn & Dimensional Rift Gates — Battle a brand-new transdimensional faction distinct from classic fauna, including Corespawn Creepers, Clamourheads, Shatterclaws, predatory Rafkan fliers, and Eldritch Rift Gates that spawn escalating horrors.
- Depth Scaling & Core Agitation — As missions descend from Depth 1 to Depth 4, enemy damage multipliers and environmental hazards escalate drastically. Lingering too long on a stage accelerates Core Agitation, spawning relentless elite waves.
- Permanent Meta-Progression & Base Customization — Salvaged research data, Phase Suits, and Core Matrixes recovered across expeditions permanently expand your available starting arsenals, active skill variations, and tactical loadouts aboard the Reclaimer staging platform.
