Deep Rock Galactic is a video game that is exactly what it says it is, a game about fantasy dwarves in outer space harvesting resources while fighting off waves of ferocious alien creatures. The game was developed by the Danish game studio Ghost Ship Games and published by Coffee Stain Publishing.

Deep Rock Galactic was released in 2020 for PC and the Xbox One, then later in 2022 for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 this past January. The game has had a supportive player community from when it was in early access. Since then, players have been customizing their in-game characters in different designs that make them resemble characters from other games and franchises, like Raiden from Mortal Kombat.

Recently, a Deep Rock Galactic fan on Reddit called icewiind shared an image of their player character from the game. They made the character's design look very much like Dr. Eggman, the lead villain of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. The player character shares several key characteristics of the villainous doctor, mainly his mustache, a red bodysuit, and goggles.

User icewiind also added that this wasn't the only player character they made in Deep Rock Galactic that resembles a prominent fictional character. According to the post, they also made another character whose design is similar to that of the character Whitebeard from the popular manga series One Piece. Whitebeard is a powerful pirate lord and formidable character in the series, but icewiind didn't share any images they have of this character in the post.

The general reaction to icewiind's Eggman character design was largely positive, with commenters liking the resemblance to the Sonic villain. On top of that, plenty of the commenters mention that they have also customized their characters to resemble Dr. Eggman as well in one way or another in Deep Rock Galactic. Some even offered tips on how icewiind could make their player character more closely appear like Dr. Eggman than the design already does.

One commenter suggested that icewiind could have their character wear night goggles in the game, saying it would be closer to the ones Dr. Eggman typically wears. Meanwhile, a few other commenters discussed what types of weapons from Deep Rock Galactic would fit with the character design and match Dr. Eggman. One considered lasers would fit the character, while another thought the choice of weapon would vary from the different eras of Dr. Eggman designs. They said that the classic Dr. Eggman might use a breach cutter, and the later eras of the character would likely use some of the more destructive weapons from the game.

Deep Rock Galactic is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox One.
