There are 4 classes in Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor: Scout, Gunner, Driller, and Engineer. Although they share names with classes in Deep Rock Galactic, there are distinctions worth noting.
In Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor, each class dictates the character’s stats, gameplay mechanics, available weapons, and interactions with the environment and adversaries. Parameters such as Max HP, Critical Chance, and Critical Damage vary among the classes, each possessing a unique enhanced ability. Additionally, players can select from three class mods for each class, which function as subclasses determining the starting weapon and providing a stat bonus.
Here are the key details for each Survivor class:
