As of publication Dark and Darker is still not
Dark And Darker Gold back up on Steam after the legal troubles with publisher Nexon despite signs it may be returning soon, and now one of the Ironmace admins has responded to player concerns about communication and a lack of information regarding the current status of the game.
“Hold and trust us,” Ironmace admin Graysun says on the game’s Discord, before following up with this statement regarding perceived vague communication.
“I do it to show I am here and watching. When there is information ready to be shared, we will share it with you all as soon as possible. We are not ready to share anything right now, so please be patient. We also do not enjoy the way we have to communicate but that is the way it is right now.
Nexon sued Ironmace over Dark and Darker earlier this year, as the former alleges copyright infringement from the latter. Some developers at Ironmace were previously employed by Nexon, and the publisher says Iromace has stolen assets from one of its own projects, which Ironmace categorically denies.
While there have been multiple playtests for
cheap Darker Gold, and even a demo, leading up to a full release we currently have little idea of when that will be, or if it will even happen, amid the legal battle between Nexon and Ironmace. Early access has already been delayed while the lawsuit is ongoing, and a “sophisticated” DDoS attack also hit Ironmace during one round of playtests as well.
