With Dark and Darker delisted off Steam, many players are wondering how to play and download the game for any upcoming alpha playtest. In March 2023, Dark and Darker was taken off platforms due to a DMCA cease and detest order from Nexon. This was a major setback for developer Ironmace. In the meantime, as it attempts to get through the legal battle in one piece, it has provided a way for fans to download the latest build of the game through a torrent.
How to play and download Dark and Darker after Steam delisting
To play and download Dark and Darker, Ironmace has instructions and links to the game’s torrent on its Twitter page and Discord server.
As prescribed by the developers, it’s important that you grab the official hash for the torrent files, so that you don’t accidentally download something else that could harm your computer.
Ironmace also recommends that you head to its Discord for its official response to the Nexon situation, instead of taking any hearsay on YouTube or Reddit at face value. In a statement made on March 24, the developer says that Nexon’s claims are “based on distorted claims” and that is reaching out to its legal team to figure out the best path forward.
For more guides on Dark and Darker, here is whether the game will be free-to-play on PC and the release date for the game, assuming that it will allowed to be listed on Steam and other platforms in the future.
