The excitement is building for fans of extraction shooters as Dark and Darker Mobile launches its thrilling pre-season #3, "Grappling with the Abyss," available now through June 10th. Following the trend set by games like Sonic Rumble, this pre-season offers a wealth of new content for soft launch players to dive into.

One of the major highlights of this season is the introduction of the Arena mode, bringing competitive PvP action to Dark and Darker Mobile. Players will engage in intense 3v3, best-of-five deathmatches on randomized maps. To participate, you must be at least level 10 and have a minimum equipment score of 500. You can also bring along a hired mercenary companion to bolster your team.

Another significant addition is the Shadow Realm, a new PvE mode where players can challenge themselves against weekly, escalating boss battles. To summon these formidable bosses, you'll first need to clear waves of monsters, making it a true test of skill. Access to this mode is granted at account level 15, ensuring that only seasoned players can take on these challenging encounters.

Beyond these two major additions, pre-season #3 brings a host of other exciting features. The new Guild Encampment serves as a social hub where members can interact and strategize. The Soulstone system, unlockable at account level 8, allows players to equip a monster's soulstone and gain unique traits. Additionally, the Stat Tree system offers persistent progression, complementing the influx of new loot, monsters, gear, and numerous quality-of-life enhancements.
