Krafton's eagerly anticipated mobile adaptation of Ironmace's hit extraction dungeon crawler, Dark and Darker Mobile, is set to make its debut with a soft launch in Canada on February 5th. Fans around the world won't have to wait much longer, as the game is slated for a global release within the first half of this year. Pre-registration for the game remains open, and players can look forward to new features and alterations that will enhance their gaming experience.
For those new to the series, Dark and Darker blends the thrill of an extraction shooter with the strategic depth of a dungeon crawler. Players can embark on solo adventures or join forces in parties, embodying classic Dungeons & Dragons-inspired characters such as fighters, rogues, barbarians, wizards, and bards. The objective is to navigate a vast dungeon, battling both monstrous foes and rival adventurers in a race to secure valuable loot.
Following the success of the original PC version developed by Ironmace, Krafton swiftly acquired the rights to create this mobile rendition. As the global launch approaches, Ironmace is actively implementing significant updates to Dark and Darker Mobile. Key changes include modifications to the Darkswarm system and the escape mechanics, which are crucial for exiting the dungeon. These updates will also feature structural enhancements to support better party play. Additionally, class differentiation will be refined with the introduction of more basic attacks and combat mechanics, alongside a broader selection of weapons and skills.
