Where to Spend Credits in Deep Rock Galactic
There are plenty of ways you can use Credits in DRG. Let’s take a better look at them!
- Buy Cosmetics at the Accessory Shop
One of the most common ways to spend your Credits is to purchase cosmetic items in the Accessory shop.

The tip here is to buy only what you need. Since most of these are so expensive and they only change your dwarf’s appearance, not affect any stats at all.
- Unlock and Upgrade Weapons
New weapons are necessary because they change the way you play the game. Depending on your play style, you may find some weapons are extremely better than others.
The cost to unlock a new weapon in DRG isn’t that high, but to unlock all of them is another story.
That’s why you should read carefully before unlocking a new weapon. Because besides the unlock cost, you have to spend some more Credits and rare minerals to buy its upgrades.
- Promotion
Promotion is a must-do activity in Deep Rock Galactic.
Not only does it allow you to furthermore level up your dwarves, but the first promotion also unlocks several features that can drastically help you in mining missions.
From the second active perk, weapon overclocks, machine events, and more. So you don’t want to miss those.
- Trade Minerals
You can trade Credits for rare minerals and vice versa in the Mineral Trade terminal.
This feature is quite useless in the early of the game but becomes more powerful in the late game.

- Forge Overclocks
Here comes the most important usage of Credits – to forge overclocks.
Overclocks are powerful upgrades for your weapons. They completely change your playstyle and tactic in Hoxxes.
An overclock usually costs around 7,000 to 23,000 Credits, which is quite expensive since you can have up to 100+ overclocks in the game.
- Purchase Beer Licenses and Beers
You can use some spare Credits to purchase beers in the Abyss Bar for your beautiful dwarves.
The cost to brew one is under 100 Credits, so it’s always good to buy beers.
However, before you can brew beer, you have to unlock the beer licenses first, which can cost up to thousands of Credits and hundreds of brewing materials.
