- Release date:September 22, 8888. The game is marked as Coming Soon on Steam ahead of that launch window.
- Price:TBA. No pricing has been announced for Early Access or the full release yet.
- Developer and publisher: Both are handled by Novus Astra.
- Early Access: Yes. Expect ongoing updates, balance changes, and content additions rather than a finished 1.0 experience at first.
- Demo: No demo is currently available, so the only way to try the game will be through Early Access itself.
Because the price is still TBA and the release date is far out, wishlist the game on Steam and check back near launch for a confirmed price and any Early Access details.
Gameplay and Features
The core loop of Conflict of Darkness revolves around completing quests,mastering powerful skills,joining guilds, and battling monsters across a 2D world on the brink of destruction. The game is designed as an MMORPG, meaning you share the world with other players rather than playing through a solo-only campaign.
Key online features confirmed for the game include:
- Multi-player: Full online multiplayer is supported.
- MMO: The game is built around a massively multiplayer world.
- Online Co-op: You can team up with other players to tackle content together.
- PvP and Online PvP: Player versus player combat is included, so expect direct competition against other players.
Beyond combat and multiplayer, the game supports Steam Achievements,Save Anytime, and Custom Volume Controls. It also includes accessibility-friendly options such as Keyboard Only Option,Mouse Only Option, and it is playable without timed input, meaning you can play at your own pace.Family Sharing is supported as well.
If you plan to play co-op or PvP, remember that both modes require an online connection, so a stable broadband connection is part of the experience rather than an optional extra.
One thing to note about Early Access: the game currently lists Steam Achievements as a supported feature, but no achievements have been published yet. You can expect them to appear closer to or after the Early Access launch.
Technical and System Requirements
Both the minimum and recommended specs for Conflict of Darkness require a 64-bit processor and operating system, as well as DirectX Version 12. The game needs a Broadband Internet connection at all times due to its online nature, but the install footprint is very small.
Minimum requirements
- OS: Windows 10 or later
- Processor: AMD Ryzen 3 3250U or greater
- Memory: 1 GB RAM
- Graphics: Internal Radeon Graphics or greater
- DirectX: Version 12
- Network: Broadband Internet connection
- Storage: 50 MB available space
Recommended requirements
- OS: Windows 10 or later
- Processor: Ryzen 5 3600 or greater
- Memory: 2 GB RAM
- Graphics: GTX 1050 or greater
- DirectX: Version 12
- Network: Broadband Internet connection
- Storage: 50 MB available space
The jump from minimum to recommended is mostly about the processor and graphics card. The minimum specs are light enough for integrated graphics, while the recommended setup calls for a GTX 1050 or better, which should give you smoother performance during crowded MMO events or PvP fights.
At only 50 MB of required storage, the download is tiny. The lower memory requirements also mean older office laptops with an integrated Radeon GPU can potentially run the game, as long as they meet the 64-bit and DirectX 12 checks.
Before launch, double-check that your system has DirectX 12 drivers installed and that you are running a 64-bit version of Windows 10 or later. Since the game is online-only, the broadband requirement is not optional, even if the rest of your hardware is well above the recommended tier.
