The two games also feature a similar trade system, allowing their players to sell and buy items from various merchants who specialize in certain categories, such as weaponry or valuables. Both place the player in an unforgiving, single-life environment in which they must overcome NPCs and other players alike in order to gather items and escape with their loot. By taking the foundation laid by games like Escape From Tarkov and expanding on it even further, this game has put its own fantasy, battle-royale-meets-RPG twist on the genre.Įscape From Tarkov inspired Battlefield's Hazard Zone and the genre as a whole, and Dark and Darker shares many core commonalities with it. Although it's currently only in its alpha playtest stage, it has been garnering the attention of many, including fans of the growing genre. Dark and Darker has shown a remarkable amount of potential as an upcoming Tarkov-like PvPvE format game.
