How Dark And Darker Mobile Will Differ From The Original

Dark and Darker Mobile is slated to launch before the end of year, and we now have the first official details on some of the major ways it will differentiate itself from the original.

First, some context. For those not in the know, Dark and Darker is a first-person, fantasy-themed extraction game where players choose a class and venture into dungeons in search of treasure, all the while avoiding traps, battling monsters, and attempting to kill (or avoid) other players. To bring the loot home, players have to survive and extract via magic portals as a deadly darkness slowly consumes the dungeon, killing any who are trapped inside for too long.

The game made a name for itself during a 2023 Steam Next Fest, where it was among the top-played games on Steam. Since then Dark and Darker has found itself in ongoing legal trouble that saw the game pulled from Steam. Developer Ironmace Games instead chose to create its own launcher and sell the game directly to players via its own website. Though a copyright lawsuit filed by Nexon accusing Ironmace of having used stolen code and assets to create Dark and Darker was dismissed in the US, the battle between the two companies is still ongoing in South Korea, where both studios are based. Dark and Darker has continued to receive updates in its early access state following its August 2023 launch, and is slated to be coming to the Epic Games Store in the future. Whether or not Dark and Darker will return to Steam, or eventually release on consoles, is unclear.
