Easy ways to download and manage mods in-game
Mods are amazing and can never get enough love, so I’m glad to see that co-operative cave-diving FPSDeep Rock Galacticnow has official mod support. It includes mod.io integration for browsing and installing mods, an in-game mod manager, and clearer communication for players joining modded servers, among a lot of other changes.
Deep Rock’s developers outlined the update ina post on Steam. Mod.io is the most significant addition. It’s a third-party equivalent to Steam Workshop, and similarly lets you browse a database of mods and subscribe to those you want to install. They will then be automatically downloaded and updated.

You can turn mods on and off while keeping them installed via an in-game mod manager. You can also see what mods a server is running before you connect now, and let the game automatically install, activate or deactivate any mod required for you to connect.
There are already 261 DRG mods available via mod.io, with the developers pointing at a handful such asFabulous Bugs, which adds random hats and beards to the enemy swarms, orSqueaky Toy Hammer, which is self-explanatory. As I said, mods are amazing.
As is DRG. In hisDeep Rock Galactic review, Nic Reuben called it an “absolute gem”, more than the sum of its parts, and many other words of praise.
If mods are what you needed to take the plunge into a procedural cave, then good news. Deep Rock Galactic is35% off for the next week on Steam.
