We will be shutting down (shut down) the Dark Alliance servers on 2/24/2025 and it will no longer be available to purchase starting that day. The base game and all DLC are still available to play in offline single player by anyone who currently owns it.

    Better start reverse engineering the client server protocol if you wanna to keep playing. When did this game come out?

      Honestly there needs to be some legislation requiring gaming companies to release the server software if they decide to retire the game.

      Man I really miss the 90’s where private servers were how things were done.

        In the 90s there were still company-owned servers for certain games such as MMORPGs like Ultima Online; reversers rebuilding servers from ground up helped keep the community alive for all those old addicts. Kal Ort Por
