The prior update, which covers the mod’s early development progress, continues below. The DRG VR mod is purportedly set to release in public beta “soon.” Matteo311 recently took a look at an early version of the Deep Rock Galactic VR mod, showing off a holster system for inventory and some gesture controls, though there’s still a number of things to be fixed like weapon and hand placements and the ability the dig using a swinging gesture rather than a button. And yes, VR and non-VR players can play together (provided everyone has the mod installed). The Deep Rock Galactic VR mod is nearing initial completion with many of the game’s major functions working correctly in VR with motion controls, including the interface and weapon wielding.ĭRG modder Herr Fristi reports over at the mod’s Discord server that the developers of Deep Rock Galactic have given the mod ‘Approved’ status, which means players will be able to use the mod with their main save, including the ability to play multiplayer with other players and earn progression in the game as normal. The updates and original article below overview the inception of the mod and some key development milestones along the way to this open beta release.

Perhaps later updates will add additional comfort options. There’s a lot of movement in DRG and the mod doesn’t appear to have done much to address the potential for discomfort, so be careful-the last place you want to be nauseas is in a cave full of aliens that are out to kill you…. The mod team encourages users to leave feedback in the DRG section of the Flatscreen to VR Mod Discord server. This is a genuine beta release and the team warns, “this mod is currently in beta, you will encounter bugs, maybe also crashes, and things will not be as smooth as they could, but we’re working hard on this mod every day and we’re very dedicated to improving it to the best of our abilities, and trying to make it feel as good as possible!” You can find the mod and detailed instructions on how to use it at the Deep Rock Galactic VR mod’s official Mod.io page. One of the mod team’s members, Herr “Punished” Fristi, posted a short announcement trailer for the open beta release:

The Deep Rock Galactic VR mod, which its creators are calling VRG, has been released in open beta.
