Although Dark and Darker's next playtest starts soon on April 14, the game's release date might still be several months away. It was originally slated for a Q4 2023 release according to the game's Steam profile, but this statement has since been removed, suggesting that Ironmace may need more time to polish its work. However, the indie developer recently confirmed the price of Dark and Darker to be $30-40, via a post from the IronmaceGames account on Reddit. With logistics such as purchase price already being determined, it's feasible that only a few playtests remain.

Dark and Darker playtest schedule

2023 is promising for the indie scene, and Dark and Darker's playtest schedule for 2023 will only contribute to that statement. Dark and Darker Playtest 5's contents have yet to be confirmed, but according to Ironmace's claims, it could be the most impactful playtest yet (and possibly one of its last, too). Until then, Dark and Darker players can only hypothesize what the hardcore, fantasy-themed RPG will throw their way next.

The Best Classes To Use in Dark and Darker

While far from release, Dark and Darker has several alpha playtests letting players experiment with the game's amazingly varied classes.

While still far from the full release of Dark and Darker, the developers have already shown off some impressive classes in its Alpha playtests. A self-described 'Hardcore First-Person Fantasy Dungeon Adventure,' Dark and Darker is a PvPvE role-playing game centered around one- to three-player parties delving into dungeons for treasure and riches. It's tough and dangerous, but the rewards can be amazing, and it already has people wanting to play more when it becomes available.

Dark and Darker's gameplay is currently centered around six classes. The melee classes are a Fighter class similar to Baldur's Gate 3's Fighter Class, the Barbarian Class, and the Rogue Class. In addition, it has spell casters in the Wizard and Cleric classes and the buy Dark And Darker Gold Ranger Class to set up traps and attack from range. Each class has its own strengths and weaknesses, and the best depends on the player's play style.
