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 significant step in distancing themselves from the ongoing legal issues between Ironmace Studios and Nexon. The core of the controversy lies in Nexon's allegations that Ironmace, founded by former Nexon employees, utilized trade secrets to develop Dark and Darker. As the legal battle continues, Krafton has chosen to proceed with the rebranding, focusing on the mobile version of the game.

The name change to Abyss of Dungeons appears to be primarily cosmetic, with no significant alterations to the game's core mechanics. While Dark and Darker Mobile had already introduced changes like a third-person perspective, fans can rest assured that the gameplay remains largely the same. This move might be disappointing for those loyal to Ironmace, but it signals Krafton's commitment to moving forward with the project.

With a soft launch scheduled for June 11th in Brazil, Thailand, Indonesia, and Mexico, the future looks promising for Abyss of Dungeons. As fans await the resolution of Ironmace's legal battles, they can look forward to enjoying Abyss of Dungeons as a companion to the PC version of Dark and Darker.
