Deep Rock Galactic Great Egg Hunt Event (2024): Start Date, Details & More

Similar to various other co-op first-person shooters, Deep Rock Galactic keeps its content fresh and its players engaged by introducing various seasonal events, each with its unique theme and aspects. The Great Egg Hunt Seasonal event does exactly this, and it revolves around a theme well-known for adaptation in many games: Easter.

If you've been following the events in Deep Rock Galactic, you might be interested in knowing when the next Easter-themed event will be coming to the game and what to expect from it. If that's the case, we've got you covered. Below, we'll discuss the start date, content additions, features, and everything in between for the upcoming Great Egg Hunt Seasonal event in Deep Rock Galactic.

Deep Rock Galactic Great Egg Hunt Seasonal Event Start Date

As of the current time, we do not have an official release or start date for the next Great Egg Hunt Seasonal Event scheduled for 2024. Fortunately, given that the event is Easter-themed, we can reasonably assume that it will occur during Easter in 2024, just as it did in 2023.

In 2023, Easter fell on April 9th, and the Great Egg Hunt Seasonal Event began about a week earlier on April 4th, concluding on April 20th, running for just over two weeks (16 days). With Easter falling on March 31st, 2024, we can expect the next Great Egg Hunt to begin in the last week of March, likely around March 25th, and run for two weeks, likely until April 10th.

Of course, this is speculative and is based on using the same pattern as last year's event to establish a timeframe. While the length of the event might change, we still expect it to revolve around the Easter period. So, be prepared for the event to occur before, during, or after Easter in 2024. Naturally, once an official release date is announced, you can be sure we'll update our listing accordingly.

Deep Rock Galactic Great Egg Hunt Seasonal Event Content

Since the next Great Egg Hunt Seasonal Event is set to kick off in 2024, we don't have specific details about the new features, content, and rewards that will be introduced. However, we can make some reasonable deductions based on the previous event. The 2023 Great Egg Hunt Seasonal Event featured a satisfying amount of new content, so let's take a look at what was included:

1. The Great Egg Hunt Assignment: A special assignment was available during the event, offering a hefty reward upon completion.
2. Hats: Players could obtain a total of four exquisite hats during the event, including the Chicken Cap and Eggshell on Your Egg from The Great Egg Hunt Assignment. Completing the Last Year’s Spring Fashion assignment allowed players to collect the Bunny Bun Bun and Sunny Side Up hats.
3. Bunny Hunt: Retrieving a bunny while on a mission rewarded players and their team members with a Double Mission Performance Point Bonus.
4. Space Ship Decoration: The Space Rig received festive decorations for the event.
5. Soundtrack Update: The soundtrack for Deep Rock Galactic was made available on Spotify.

Based on these rewards, we can reasonably expect the return of The Great Egg Hunt Assignment, cosmetics, and Space Rig decorations as these are staple features in most Deep Rock Galactic events. We aren't 100% certain whether we'll get another soundtrack update or what other new content might be added, so apart from the basics, we'll have to wait and see.

So, there you have it, a full breakdown of everything we know about the next Deep Rock Galactic Great Egg Hunt Seasonal Event coming in 2024. As always, be sure to check back here for updates, as we'll keep you informed with the latest news as soon as it's made available!
