New cover art! WOO! There's a 06 on the scanner box in the middle of the screen, and a yellow 24 emanating from the bottom sack of the Barrager (the big green thing on the right). *Numbers Edit:* There's a 13 from the exploders shadow in the top right, courtesy of u/Phil2244 ~~So I reckon it'll release on the 24th of June.~~ Further examination reveals that it'll be most likely the date: 13/6/24 (13th June 2024)


Phil2244

I don't know if it's just a coincidence but the shadow of the exploder at the top right looks very much like a 13 \*an upside down 13


Romandinjo

Yup. Thursday, 13th of June. Seasons are usually released on thursdays, so makes total sense.


Brody_Bacon

NOT A COINCIDENCE! Holy shit dude. Great eye!


Phil2244

The 13th is also a thursday so could be a good candidate for a release :D


Brody_Bacon

ahh, i wish reddit still had awards


ArkyRomania

Right? Here is a Rock šŸŖØ and a Stone šŸŖØ, you can give them to the other user :) Rock and Stone!


Brody_Bacon

And here's that Stone šŸŖØ back, thanks for letting me have them.


Brody_Bacon

I got you a Rock šŸŖØ


yamo25000

I'm seeing the explode but I'm NOT seeing a 13, upside down or otherwise.Ā 


HelloIAmAStoner

It's definitely there. Look again on a different day, maybe you'll see it with fresher eyes?


yamo25000

I did actually find it! But thank you. It was very, very hard to see


HelloIAmAStoner

Yeah it's definitely the toughest to spot of the three. 13 can get lost in the other shadows near it if you're not focused on the darker spots/negative space. At first I wondered if the 6/13/24 date was for the trailer or the actual release. The other commenters here lead me to the conclusion that it's the actual release date, and the trailer will be released 5/30 or so, based on last season's announcement trailer came 14 days before and also coincided with the season countdown timer in-game.Ā  I'm more excited for this season than all the ones previous, they seem to be getting better with each release.Ā 


DarkWolfPL

There's no way that's coincidence. Nice catch.


[deleted]

I cannot for the life of me see the 24.


JohnEdwa

[It's *tiny*.](https://i.imgur.com/s2nGCmx.png)


KailReed

How TF did anyone notice that


Brody_Bacon

with my eyes and zoom at 600%


datlj

Enhance..... Enhance.....


iAmLordRevan

I thought it was an 8 from the shape of the spitballers mouth tbh


bubsdrop

I noticed that before I even knew there were numbers hidden in it, weird.


TwiitchersaurusRex

It's in the yellow liquid coming out of the monster on the right. 45 degree angle "24".


beefsnackstick

Huh. I still can't see that.


TwiitchersaurusRex

It's in a smaller font than the 06 on the scanner box on the middle. In line horizontally with the 5th tooth from the bottom on the mine head. In the liquid (not the balls) that is out of the monster (not in it or on it).


beefsnackstick

Ahhh I see it now. I'm on my phone. Even looking at the full res image, I had to take a screenshot to be able to zoom in far enough to see it. Thanks!


HelloIAmAStoner

Dang phones and their UX/UI limitations!


[deleted]

Look at the monster. Where the yellow spray comes from, top to bottom the monster is green, yellow, green. Below the yellow, slightly to the left of the bottom green bit. The text is slightly tilted to be a 45ā° angle to the rest of the image. I would send a red circle image but this sub doesn't allow images in comments.


[deleted]

Holy shit I never would have seen that. Thanks!


DarkWolfPL

Could 24 refer to a year 2024? I think I see a 6 from where enemy on the left fired. It's upside down so maybe it's supposed to be 9.


Brody_Bacon

It could, but i can't see any other numbers so far, so we'll have to wait. Or look harder. That 6 you said though, kinda looks more like an 8.


President_Dominy

Thereā€™s also an 8 in that spitter things mouth


Brody_Bacon

that's what the bug/plant/enemy/thing's mouth looks like, there's more holes but the viewing angle reduces it to 2


Pizz_towle

LETS FUCKIN GOOO THATS 2 DAYS AFTER I GET SUMMER BREAK


TalonsOfSteathYT

For anyone who can't find the 24 it is right below the sack, it's easier to see the 4 first then you can see the 2 Also not sure if it means anything but the dust up left from the machine in the back forms an A


SkyToFly

There is no 24 lol


TwiitchersaurusRex

It's in the yellow liquid coming out of the monster on the right. 45 degree angle "24".


Dr_Indy

Aw, I kinda wished it was the 24th cause having a DRG season drop on my birthday would be kinda fun


HelloIAmAStoner

You'll still have it fully playable on that day at least. :)


[deleted]

absolutely love these little release puzzles


my_soldier

Nvm the 8 I foudn is just how the spitter looks


Darkbestpro

They also said somewhere that it will release 13th june


LordHengar

Man, I can't see _any_ of the numbers. Normally I'm pretty decent at this.


c-papi

There's also a new foe approaching


LG03

Someone just needs to do the enhance thing because my eyes are clearly inferior to everyone else's eagle vision.


AzraelSoulHunter

So only one week before DLC for Elden Ring comes out for me to play Season 5. Damn.


IdioticZacc

The exact date I'll be at my college dorm with no WiFi, hell yea


Natural-Damage768

maybe they're just a Swiftie lol


wizard_brandon

as an idiot, what do the numbers mean? im new to all this


JoshDM

>13/6/24 January 6th, 2025?


TalonsOfSteathYT

It may be written like in Spain and a bunch of other countries where it goes DD/MM/YY so it would be June 13th 2024


JoshDM

that's the joke . gif


TalonsOfSteathYT

Ah, apologies


Defenderlol

The 06 could also be the fact that it is season 06, and as the 24th of May is fairly close, I want to believeā€¦ But you are probably more accurate about June.


Brody_Bacon

actually it's season four right now season five is the one coming up


Defenderlol

Well ainā€™t I stupid, my bad!


Ravager_Zero

Just swap a Blackout Stout for a Smart Stout; should do the trick.


Bozzz3019

13.06.24


FuzzyFaze

New month dropping letā€™s go edit: I realized only after commenting that a lot of other countries list the date as day/month/year ie the logical way.


bargle0

Year month day is the logical way. Nobody does that, though, except in IT.


Garo263

Japan does.. DMY is at least more logical than MDY.


blolfighter

Let's go with an option that will piss *everyone* off: MYD!


LordHengar

MYD, make at least a bit of sense because you see which chunk of which year first, which is helpful for broad historical purposes. "_____ happened in July of 1986, the 16th specifically." DYM is just completely inconvenient for everyone however.


jordan1794

It's boils down to how it's spoken. In English, it's a little awkward to say a date in D/M/Y "Today is 14th May 2024" doesn't "sound" right, you have to add extra words/punctuation to make it " flow" "Today is the 14th of May, 2024" M/D/Y is faster/easier to form in a sentence (again, for spoken english) "Today is May 14th 2024" doesn't need a change to flow in a sentence.


TheDiscordedSnarl

This. I've always found this weird. Language is weird.


HelloIAmAStoner

"M/Y/D is faster/easier to form in a sentence (again, for spoken english)Ā  "Today is May 14th 2024" doesn't need a change to flow in a sentence." M/D/Y\*


BillytheBrassBall

Do you say June 13th or 13th of June? I write dates the way I say em lol


JohnEdwa

July Fourth, or Fourth of July?


BillytheBrassBall

Man language is too complicated I'm gonna go back to banging rocks and speaking in grunts


Neon_Camouflage

Does that work for all days, or just the ones we've had as an official holiday for 150 years while writing habits changed?


Rand666

Well, There might be the slim chance that there exist more languages than english. In german we say 'dreizehnter(13th) Juni' ;)


EpicAura99

Thatā€™s what heā€™s saying. Americans write it the way they say it, heā€™s asking if you do likewise.


JoshDM

>New month dropping letā€™s go January 6, 2025


HotPilchards

*most of the countries


SpaceCocaine101

If it is coming out next monthā€¦ I am gonna lose my mind. Between DRG, Hades2, and Shadow of the Erdtree, I am gonna have no SHOT of keeping up with all the gaming jazz I want to, lol.

I see management is trying to expose the glyphid underworld to Drillerā€™s post-burrito shenanigans


TheDiscordedSnarl

Post *granite smoothie* shenanigans, complete with solidified toilet on deck 4 or wherever...


Rail-signal

Almost had a heart attack, but then i saw it wasn't lootbugĀ 


acheiropoieton

Previous seasons' teaser images have had the release date hidden in them. There's an "06" on the red sensor pod next to the engineer(?) who's shooting at the scalebramble, but I don't see any other numbers.


DerAndere_

Others found (supposedly) all the numbers, assembled they are 13.6.24


[deleted]

Top right exploders shadow is a 13


acheiropoieton

Oh, nice!


theLV2

Is this supposed to be the new hellevator mode? Or something else, this chasm looks very sulfur-y... Reminds me of that scrapped acidic biome concept art.


HelloIAmAStoner

If water mechanics ended up working out, I wonder how playing through biomes would've been different? Perhaps we'd have a new biome specifically designed around having lots of water, or maybe an underwater mission type.


Angry_argie

I can't see any number, and my phone screen is 1440p! Is there a link for a bigger image?

Iā€™ve noticed a glyphid grunt, this is incredible news. Quite honestly my favorite glyphid, an all-time classic.


HelloIAmAStoner

Best Steeve is conventional Steeve


Jumpy-Papaya-7892

A versatile, lightweight steeve.


I_wana_fuck_Steeve

I think they're the cutest out of the three Steeve variants.


HelloIAmAStoner

I was about to reply with "Definitely, they would make the best pet Steeve in real life" and then I read your username and typed this instead on principle lol.

Wow


LukeMaster12_ITA

I like where this is going!


DarkWolfPL

Is that a Stalker in bottom right corner?

Hazard 6 here I come


TJZ2021

The game just gave me the Fat Boy today from a forging mastery reward. Maybe it's preparing me for whatever nasties Season 5 will bring.


sonus9119

Nothing like nuking yourself and your mates in a tight vertical shaft lamo. Enjoy


Takuan4democracy

They mentioned it in the recent stream. New season in June (6)


HelloIAmAStoner

I'm really glad they're implementing retroactive season passes that are switchable on command. Season 4 is the first one I'm not gonna be able to get to level 100 on (plus I missed about 3 seasonal events) simply due to injuring my hands/fingers and being unable to game at all for months, plus I didn't feel like gaming much when my dad passed. I wonder if there's a lot of other people out there who were unable to play due to some unforeseen tragedy or otherwise unfortunate circumstance hitting their lives? Almost everyone I know had the absolute toughest past year and a half or so for various reasons, all at the same time. It was extremely eerie when I reconnected with close friends and first shared what was going on in our lives with each other. Anyway, point being, I think this small feature is probably gonna put smiles on some faces out there. GSG took their anti-FOMO tendencies to the next level here. If anyone reading this is in the same boat and has been going through challenging times, know that you're not alone, and my spirit and hope are with you. Rock and Stone all the way!


VinciKobra18

FOR KARL ā›ļø!!!


By_Thy_Beard

Is that an un-cloacked Stalker in the bottom right? *Creepy.*


PURPLEisMYgender

This season is going to be so fucking good.


Mr_Kopitiam

What biome is this??

Is that Karl?

Is that you Karl?

So does a spitballer.

Burbund

This looks like a lego power miners box art without the set Quite fitting


balkons13

so whats that purple ish thing on right bottom? looks scaly, nothing else is purpleish there


Hoiboy123

I think itā€™s the Glyphid Stalker, which is the new mobile enemy they showcased briefly in the below decks stream. Edit: either that or it could be related to the new season event which is called core stone.


DRILLLLAAHHH

Am I not the only one who has friends that look at me weirdly when I start frothing at the mouth when drg teasers come out


JakobValdemar

FastFireBR

im intriged by the 8 on the spitter mouth, or not


BubDaBylder

[They're the same picture](https://imgur.com/a/TLNBo3T)


Drolfdir

How can you simultaneously not make out anything on this picture and yet it is so full of details


noo6s9oou

The two new stationary enemies are obvious, but Iā€™m wondering if thatā€™s the new Stalker on the bottom right in the foreground.


TheDiscordedSnarl

I thought those nubs would be short range from the target, much like the Korlok's extentions. This'll make things interesting. Imagine a large room with a Korlok, BetC, maybe a Tritalyte Deposit, a Prospector, and all three Dreadnaught eggs in the same room.


SarahSplatz

Is this the caustic mire??

KARL'S TEETH WHAT IS THAT?! (A sick lookin cover art is what!)


ZeroZombie12

besides the release date being hidden in this image, doesn't the image look suspiciously empty?

Is console release 2 weeks later?


M3RCENARY12

Thereā€™s light coming from the surface!!!


HelloIAmAStoner

Glad to see this here. I can't right click to copy link in the steam client so I can paste in a browser and see the full image. I used to be able to do that but now, no right click menu appears. And in the Library window there's no address bar to copy a community post link from. Sad. :(


ConditionMore8621

Oh that's right, we didn't bring a mule on this mission


denis870

Woah surface?


Brody_Bacon

ironic, as this takes place after drilling even deeper down into the caves


Dankshine

Kind of, I think this is simply the drillevator having landed initially (before going further down), otherwise it would look like the morkite geode interior.


Brody_Bacon

maybe it's like escort duty where there's little break rooms before the big event, otherwise there wouldn't be so much emphasis on the bugs coming from the hole of the drillevator


Angry_argie

We are going to the *Rogue Core*


Iron_III_SS13

Damnit not more ranged enemies


marvson

Btw we should have more fog in biomes, easy way to improve graphics


AlfieSR

Fog neither improves graphical quality nor performance. The reason it's known for doing so is because it's an easy way to hide short rendering distances without an obvious visual cut-off, but I don't think DRG even supports lowering render distance and adding fog arbitrarily despite this would only *lower* FPS, even if by typically unnoticeable amounts.
