Just to kill this before you guys start speculating too much. Sorry no, it is not a surface biome. (It's gonna be awesome tho) :D

Is there any chance there will ever be more than 4 classes? I think about other classes every time I play. Maybe an animal tamer? The overseer playable? A heavy weapons expert? A dwarf dwarf in a tiny exoskeleton?

Most likely not. It's designed to be for up to four players and for each class to have a role within a full team. We're very happy with how the four classes work, and adding a new class would be an enormous amount of work, and it wouldn't really make sense to do so.

Any plans for Xbox gamepass/Steam crossplay??

Kind of disappointed about this. I bought the game on steam a while back and have been raving about it to my friends the whole time. Well it finally comes out on gamepass and we're all excited to play together......but can't. Why??

Currently not. There's a bunch of reasons for this, but one of them is that the Xbox hardware is not able to fully do the same complexity caves that the Steam version has. We're not ruling it out, but for every reason to do it, there's also a reason not to do it.

True, it's not on there. If we do it, we'll announce it differently.

They mentioned a small modding community, where is that? I program and I wanna make mods. I'm pretty sure it's hard though since this game uses unreal right?

There's a few discords here and there. If you check out some of the regular streamers, it should be easy to find.

We'd rather use the space for more ammo.

Bought this game yesterday after playing it for a few days on gamepass, it really does get intense in CO-OP on dangerous difficultly but as long as the team is together everything should be okay-ish.

So yeah future updates looking forward to it πŸ˜ƒ

I'm not sick of playing it even though it's my job. :D

Is it a firm decision then that there will always be a limit of 4 players per lobby? Personally, I like the 4 class balance, but I'd love to see something like an 8 player ultra-elite deep dive!

Yeah, it's a sweet spot. Anything higher than that really changes the game on a lot of aspects. Remember we'd have to match the number of monsters to the number of players, and even now there are some occassions where we hit our own hard limit, and some monsters don't react due to it being very heavy. One challenge is the procedural caves and deformable terrain, which makes pathfinding tricky. This is also the reason we don't have any humanoid enemies. Getting them to act like you'd expect is very hard - and since traversal is a big part of Deep Rock the whole glyphid theme fits the model well.

Is there going to be a sale any time soon?

While we can’t announce it in advance, we’ve been consistently part of most of the Steam sales in the past. Sales on Xbox is more rare, but also happens.
