How To Unlock New Maps In Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor sends you and your chosen dwarf on a mission to mine for precious minerals, while taking out swarms of alien bugs. Each of the game's three maps has its own challenges, tasking players with eliminating each level's Elite bug before taking on the powerful Dreadnought.

This is a guide in progress. We'll continue to add information as we uncover it, so be sure to check back soon.
