Hello Miners!
We have two pieces of news for you today. First of all, the Store page for the new Roughneck DLC is now live. This new DLC is called Roughneck pack and is themed around a better-ventilated outfit and with a company-issued hardhat to make up for the lack of body armor and protect your noggin’.

Like the Dark Future and MegaCorp DLCs, the Roughneck Pack is purely cosmetic. Any gameplay altering changes will stay in the free updates we’re doing. And speaking of updates...
The second piece of news is about the release date. We’ve previously aimed for launching Update 32 on October 8, but after some closer scrutiny, we have realized that we have to push the update two weeks to October 22. The content and missions needs a bit more refinement and a safer escort to a release ready state.
But why two weeks? We’re just about to hit a public school holiday here in Denmark, which means that some of our key crew will be unavailable for a week, and launching a big update like this without them isn’t viable. This, together with increased COVID-19 precautions and our refusal to engage in crunch-time at Ghost Ship Games has led to us postponing the update two weeks. On a positive note, this will allow us to collect more feedback from the current version of Update 32 available on the Experimental branch on Steam.
Rock and Stone!
