The popular bullet heaven survivor-like Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor is set for the Knockout Expansion to arrive on November 17th.

A nice hit for Funday Games and Ghost Ship Publishing with it selling over two million since the Early Access release. This will be the second expansion, following on from Heavy Duty that was released back in April to a pretty Mixed reception, with the main complaints seeming to be a lack of content for the price. Hopefully the Knockout Expansion will see a better reception.

Meet the Brawler

When the job calls for brute force and reckless efficiency, the Brawler answers. At the heart of the Brawler's kit are his metal fists, a powerful melee weapon for unlucky enemies and cave walls alike. Hoxxes IV has never looked so fragile as the new class smashes its way towards valuable minerals.

A New World

The Knockout Expansion also introduces the dry, dangerous, and inhospitable Sandblasted Corridors biome, where the Brawler excels in its battles. Miners can expect swirling sand-filled tornadoes alongside a host of new dangers…

Face The Brood

In addition, Management is introducing the high-risk Brood Harvest mission. Miners will face off with the Dreadnought Empress boss, an insectoid matriarch spawning sacrificial offspring to build a biological shield between her and the elite dwarven crew. Workers, be warned – get to the Dreadnought Empress before her Brood gets to them.
