Dark and Darker removed from Steam as Nexon situation worsensDark and Darker developer Ironmace has reportedly been issued a cease and desist from publishing company Nexon, subsequently removing the RPG game from Steam.
An old bearder wizard in a blue pointy hat and robes brandishing a staff that glows with a blue crystal at the top Steam action RPG game and Diablo-inspired dungeon crawler Dark and Darker has been removed from the platform following an alleged cease and desist letter from Japanese-South Korean publisher Nexon.
This comes in the wake of a series of back and forth allegations between the two companies. In summary, Nexon accused Ironmace, Dark and Darker’s developers, of stealing game code for a project entitled ‘P3,’ which is allegedly similar to the hit Steam dungeon crawler. Members of Ironmance were allegedly involved in the development of P3.
Ironmance was quick to deny the allegations, but according to Games Industry.biz was raided by Korean police in early March. On March 25, fans noticed that the game was no longer available on Steam (I have verified this, it isn’t), and a subsequent statement on the game’s dedicated Discord server explains why.
“To all our fans, we have recently been served a cease and desist letter and DMCA takedown by Nexon regarding Dark and Darker based on distorted claims,” writes a developer called ‘Krapst78’. “We are currently working with our legal team to remedy this issue in the
Dark And Darker Gold for sale best manner possible. Due to the sensitive legal nature of this issue we must be careful with our statements so as to not jeopardize our position.
