DIG Raiders' 4v4 Treasure Hunt mode adapts extraction gameplay to a mining theme: two teams dig, loot, and race to extract before rivals. This guide covers the mode's core strategy for 2026 players.

Understanding extraction risk

In Treasure Hunt, your team digs for loot while competing with another team for the same treasure. The decision is when to extract: stay longer for better loot or leave early to avoid confrontation.

Extraction risk-reward is the mode's heart—every haul is a bet against the rival team's timing.

Team composition and animal suits

Seven animal suits provide stat boosts: movement speed helps dig-and-dash runs, HP suits help brawlers hold contested chokepoints, damage boosts speed up mining. Assign roles per suit to balance your team.

Coordinate so at least one player can carry loot while others screen the extraction route.

Managing the alien factor

Aliens in the dig site can be exploited for labor, but they also complicate extraction. Use them as distractions against rival teams or clear them before moving big loot.

The 'exploit the aliens' mechanic turns environmental hazards into a strategic resource.
