Deep Rock Galactic Season 7 Arrives In December With New Perks

Ghost Ship Games will release Season 7 for Deep Rock Galactic in December 2026, the studio announced during The Big Break Showcase 2026 streamed on September 30 Japan time. The update is free and carries the title CONTINGENCY PROTOCOL. It adds about 20 overclocks that mainly upgrade secondary weapons, which broadens the build options for each dwarf class. The perk system also gets reworked, with 11 new perks and adjustments to existing ones. A new Perk Proficiency system lets players spend leftover perk points once all perks are unlocked; a dedicated slot opens and excess points raise base stats slightly. Other additions include paint for traversal tools and an event built around crash accidents. Ghost Ship Games also said Season 8 and a new expansion DLC will arrive in summer 2027. Season 8 is expected to be smaller in scale, and the DLC details will be shared later. Deep Rock Galactic is a co-op shooter for up to four players.
