The controversial online game “Dark and Darker” will be removed from all players’ libraries on the Epic Games Store on November 1. In an email to players, Epic Games writes that the removal is due to a court order in South Korea, between the gaming company Nexon and “Dark and Darker” publisher Ironmace.
Earlier in February 2025, a court in Seoul ruled that Ironmace had violated trade secrets by leaking internal information.
Players can already no longer purchase “Dark and Darker’s” own currency, Redstone Shards, or upgrade to Legendary Status.
Epic Games writes that anyone who purchased Legendary Status in the game will get their money back. However, no money will be refunded for Redstone Shards.
Despite all its legal problems, “Dark and Darker” became a huge success in 2024. At the time of writing, it is still available to download via the gaming platform Steam.
