Following rumors that the game would launch in early access today (August 7), Ironmace CEO Terrance Park confirmed this to be true in a statement to PCGamer, where he also notes that Chaf Gaming is simply the distribution storefront, not the game’s new publisher.
Ironmace claims that it wants Dark and Darker to “return to Steam as soon as possible” as it “cannot ignore the largest PC storefront in the world.” Park goes on to state that the team “built Dark and Darker from the ground up here at Ironmace and stand by our work.”
