The creators of Dark and Darker, a multiplayer fantasy action game following the rules of Escape from Tarkov, have announced the release of a free version. The game can be downloaded from the official website through the Blacksmith launcher.
Obviously, the free version has some limitations. New players can only create one character and use only standard modes. To remove the restrictions, you need to purchase the «legendary» status.
Simultaneously with the f2p release, the authors released an update that made the game more forgiving during the training stages and added several «quality of life» improvements.
In Dark and Darker, players take on the role of adventurers exploring dark dungeons in search of treasures. Initially, the project was sold on Steam, but last year it was removed from the platform due to legal disputes with Nexon.
