Hello Miners, We have a few more things to tease for Season 03. First up, something new has appeared in the caves of Hoxxes. We don’t want to spoil too much, but you might be able to spot it in this short clip:



We will be talking more about…whatever it is…very soon.

For something more hands-on (pun intended), check out the Springloaded Ripper, the second in the lineup of new grenades for Season 03:



This throwable workplace hazard unleashes a set of springloaded sawblades that will shred most organic matter it encounters. Operate with care and deadly precision. Management considers this new tool a prime example of why beer is not allowed on... Read more

Hello Miners, old and new We have been so busy lately that we almost missed the fact that 4 Million of you have now bought the game since our launch into Early Access back in 2018. A hearty thank you to all of you. We are grateful for all your support and the love you have shown for the game. It makes the blood, sweat, and tears we pour into the game feel more than worth it.

The last time we hit a similar milestone, 3 Million units sold, was just after the release of Season 01. That is 1 million of you joining the game on Steam since the Rivals first came to Hoxxes. We have followed the CCU closely, and the game is more alive than we ever dreamt of when we first launched it back in 2018.

If you are a Greenbeard fresh out of onboarding, welcome. We hope your time at the company will be rewarding, productive, and lucrative. An... Read more

Hello Miners, This is it! It’s finally happening - Modding support is here!

What started as a simple Save Game profile system turned into full-fledged modding support. We have spent the past months iterating on these features with the modding community, and it has been great to see this update come to fruition.

We can’t wait for you to dive into the wonderful world of DRG mods. This has been a completely different update for us. Truth be told, we don’t know what’s going to happen. We are excited (and maybe a little bit scared) to see where modding will take this game. Until then, we’ll be busy fighting {LINK REMOVED}... Read more
