Krafton's eagerly anticipated mobile adaptation of Ironmace's hit extraction dungeon crawler, Dark and Darker, is poised for a soft launch in Canada on February 5th. Fans around the globe won't have to wait long, as a worldwide release is scheduled for the first half of this year. Pre-registration remains open, offering players the chance to secure their spot for the game's launch.
For those new to the franchise, Dark and Darker melds the thrill of an extraction shooter with the depth of a dungeon crawler. Players can embark on solo adventures or team up in groups, choosing from a diverse array of classes such as fighters, rogues, barbarians, wizards, bards, and more. The challenge lies in navigating vast dungeons, battling fearsome monsters, and outwitting rival adventurers vying for the same treasure.
The original PC version from Ironmace made waves upon its release, quickly attracting the attention of Krafton, who secured the rights to bring this immersive experience to mobile devices. With the global launch on the horizon, Krafton is set to enhance Dark and Darker with significant updates. Key changes include modifications to the Darkswarm system and escape mechanics, which will see structural overhauls to facilitate smoother party play. Additionally, class differentiation will be sharpened with new basic attacks and combat mechanics, alongside a broader selection of weapons and skills.
