Abyss of Dungeons: Dark and Darker Mobile's New Name Revealed

Krafton's decision to rebrand Dark and Darker Mobile to Abyss of Dungeons marks a clear step to distance themselves from the ongoing legal entanglements involving Ironmace Studios and Nexon. The crux of the legal battle revolves around allegations of misused trade secrets, with Nexon claiming that Ironmace, founded by former Nexon employees, improperly used assets and ideas from their time at the company to create Dark and Darker.

Despite the name change, the core gameplay mechanics of Abyss of Dungeons remain untouched. This is reassuring news for fans, especially since Dark and Darker Mobile had already introduced significant changes, such as a third-person perspective. The rebranding primarily affects elements specific to Dark and Darker, but the essence of the game stays the same.

For fans of Ironmace, the rebranding might be a bittersweet development, yet the hope remains that the legal disputes will resolve soon, allowing enthusiasts to enjoy Abyss of Dungeons alongside the PC version of Dark and Darker. With a soft launch planned for June 11th in Brazil, Thailand, Indonesia, and Mexico, anticipation is building.
