Where Is the Dark and Darker Mobile Soft Launch?

The soft launch of Dark and Darker Mobile is set to kick off in the US and Canada. Starting at 7:00 PM ET on February 5 (that's 12:00 AM UTC), Android users in these regions can embark on this adventure. For those outside these areas, mark your calendars for the global release in August 2025.

If you're familiar with the PC version, you know what to expect. For newcomers, here's a quick overview: you'll be dropped into a dungeon, tasked with collecting as much treasure as you can, and fighting your way out before the deadly Dark Swarm engulfs you. With hordes of monsters, treacherous traps, and other adventurers looking to steal your loot, survival is a challenging endeavor. Choose from six distinct classes, each offering a unique approach to navigating the dungeon.

From the magic-wielding Wizard to the brute force of the Barbarian, the healing prowess of the Cleric, the frontline combat of the Fighter, the long-range precision of the Ranger, to the stealth and agility of the Rogue, your choice of class will shape your strategy and experience.
