Krafton has taken a significant step to distance itself from the ongoing legal issues surrounding Ironmace Studios by rebranding Dark and Darker Mobile to Abyss of Dungeons. This move comes amidst Ironmace's legal battle with Nexon, who has accused Ironmace, founded by former employees, of misusing trade secrets and assets developed during their tenure at Nexon.
The rebranding to Abyss of Dungeons appears to be primarily a name change, with minimal alterations to the core gameplay. Dark and Darker Mobile had already introduced significant changes, such as a third-person perspective, but the essence of the game remains intact. This should reassure fans that they won't encounter a drastic overhaul in the gameplay experience.
For fans of Ironmace, the rebranding might be disappointing, but the hope is that their legal troubles will resolve soon. Meanwhile, Abyss of Dungeons is set to complement the PC version of Dark and Darker, with a soft launch scheduled for June 11th in Brazil, Thailand, Indonesia, and Mexico.
