Steam action RPG game and Diablo-inspired dungeon crawler Dark and Darker Gold have been stripped away from the platform following an alleged cease and desist letter from Japanese-South Korean publisher Nexon.

This can be purchased in the wake of any series of to and fro allegations relating to the two companies. In summary, Nexon accused Ironmace, Dark and Darkers developers, of stealing game code for just a project entitled P3, that's allegedly like the hit Steam dungeon crawler. Members of Ironmance were allegedly working in the development of P3.

Ironmance was quick to deny the allegations, but based on Games Industry.biz was raided by Korean police in early March. On March 25, fans realized that the game was no longer entirely on Steam (I have verified this, it isnt), as well as a subsequent statement on the overall games dedicated Discord server explaining why.

To our fans, we've got recently been served a cease and desist letter and DMCA takedown by Nexon regarding dark and darker gold for sale determined by distorted claims, writes a developer called Krapst78. We are now working with his legal team to remedy this concern in the best manner possible. Due to the sensitive legal nature of this problem, we must be cautious with our statements to be able to not jeopardize our position.

We require your understanding even as we work to get the action back up as fast as possible. Please realize that we will do everything possible for fans.

Dark and Darker exploded on Steam in February after a free demo test, peaking at substantially more than 100,000 concurrent players daily. Described as an unforgiving hardcore fantasy FPS dungeon PvPvE adventure, you happen to be challenged with diving deep into the bowels of the ancient citadel and retrieving treasure to trade to local merchants. Think Tomb Raider meets Diablo.

In the meantime, though, there are several other great co-op games you can try out, plus the Diablo 4 beta comes to an end and runs when you fancy crawling through some dungeons.
