What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The Dark West is an action RPG featuring tons of loot and powerful character builds, and community feedback is essential before a full release. Loot balance, optimizing enemy difficulty, and refining the in-game economy are key aspects of our development process. Launching without an early access phase would risk compromising the player experience—our top priority. By collaborating with the community, we can refine and enhance the game together, ensuring it delivers a deep and rewarding ARPG experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our game is planned to be in Early Access for at least One year, and and scheduled to release in the ending of 2026.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Our plan is to add five acts, multiple classes, dynamic system such as crafting and skill trees and a unique and innovative endgame.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version will give everything you need to enjoy The Dark West as it is meant to be played. That will include multiple acts, bosses, fully functioning systems such as crafting.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Once the game is out of Early Access, we plan to make The Dark West free-to-play.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“You can do your part and leave your feedback on our discord, we are always listening and looking for improvements to make this the best ARPG”

About This Game

The Dark West is an Action RPG that challenges both your skill and sanity. Face the cursed frontier, where faith and damnation war beneath the eternal dusk. Every choice carves a path through a world of filth where greed unearthed something fouler than death.

Survive visceral, high-stakes combat where every hit matters. Using every weapon at your disposal to tear through hordes of twisted foes. In this wasteland, it's kill or be killed. 

Blaze your trail by forging a build from the trove of treasures, honing masterful skills, and learning frontier-born tricks that turn your character into something feared.

Step into a dying town, where the land is tainted by black magic. This curse does not grant power, it demands it, and at a cost no man should pay.

Two sides rise in the ruin: The Order, zealots cloaked in justice, blind to the rot in their ranks.  The Damned, cursed souls lost to black magic’s grip. In this land, trust is a slow death. The real danger isn’t what waits in the dark, it’s who’s standing behind you when the killing starts.

Key Features:

  • A World Steeped in Shadow: Explore the cursed town, a gritty frontier filled with grim secrets and vile abominations.

  • Oppressive Atmosphere: Immerse yourself in a gothic western filled with twisted horror where hope is a sickness.

  • Deep, Dark Progression: Customize your character with dynamic skills and impactful itemization.

  • Brutal ARPG Combat: Fast-paced, strategic, and unforgiving. Every encounter is a fight to the death.

Only the strongest, the most cunning, and the most ruthless will endure. Face off against monstrosities, duel desperados at the edges of the world, and ride through unforgiving frontiers where the dead don’t always stay buried. The Dark West does not forgive.
