The next-gen versions will contain 4K support and higher performance. The game will launch in December for PC and consoles but digitally only at the moment. The physical editions are planned to release for all platforms in Q1 2021.

Along with the announcement was news of a series of comics based on the DARQ series called DARQ: Dream Journal. The comics will be written by the game’s director, Wlad Marhulets, with art by Kelsey Haley. Readers will learn more about Lloyd’s story and reveal the secrets within the games. DARQ: Dream Journal is expected to launch in 2021.

DARQ: Complete Edition contains the DLC The Tower and The Crypt. The game follows the story of Lloyd, a boy who realizes he’s dreaming. Unfortunately, that dream turns into a nightmare Lloyd can’t wake from. While exploring his subconscious, Lloyd learns how to serve through this nightmare by bending the laws of physics and manipulating the dream world.

In “The Tower,” Lloyd is in a new creepy location filled with puzzles. Meanwhile, The Crypt adds new mechanics such as switching between controlling Lloyd’s head and body, a new location, puzzles, plus new achievements. Neither DLC requires completing the main game, and players can jump in to experience the DLC at any time.

The original version of DARQ is currently available on Steam and GOG. The final DLC, The Crypt, will be made available free for PC owners who already own the base game.
