Hotfix 73 for Dark and Darker brings exciting changes to the game, including the release of the Legendary Status DLC as a direct purchase option.

Dark and Darker Hotfix 73 Patch Notes:
Legendary Status can now be purchased directly as a DLC rather than an upgrade through Redstones. Unfortunately, the Legendary Status DLC has been slightly delayed on the Epic Game Store platform, but we will have an exciting announcement very soon for our EGS customers. On the other platforms, the DLC will be launching with an introductory 30% discount until December 19. This update also brings additional polish to the Arena system as we prepare it for the official launch next season. Finally, we want everyone to know that we are working hard in preparation for the start of the new season on December 18. We thank you and see you in the dungeons!
