The studio said it's developing 'approval categories' and will fall under 'sandbox,' 'approved for progression,' and 'fully approved' categories. However, Ghost Ship Games did take a deeper dive into how server support and game saves will work once the changes hit. While Ghost Ship did not go into detail about how Mod.io will work with Deep Rock Galactic, the studio said it was confident in its choice after comparing the platform to other options and was excited for fans to see how it works with the game. Mod.io has already amassed a small catalogue of games using the platform for mod support, including SnowRunner, Totally Accurate Battle Simulator, and Insurgency: Sandstorm. The mod platform Ghost Ship said it's going with is Mod.io, a relatively newer mod platform and spiritual successor to the Mod DB platform from some of its original creators.
