Darkest Days: A Harsh New Frontier in Zombie Survival (Now on Android)
From the creators of Mystery Dungeon and The Legend of Elma, NHN Corp delivers Darkest Days — a raw, immersive, and relentlessly intense open-world zombie survival experience that redefines what it means to fight for every breath.
Set in a world torn apart by a catastrophic zombie virus, Darkest Days plunges players into a hauntingly beautiful wasteland of decay and desperation. You are not a hero — just another fragile survivor, clawing your way through ruins, hunting for supplies, and piecing together the truth behind the apocalypse.
A World on the Brink
Your journey begins in Sand Creek, a once-peaceful town now swallowed by silence and shadow. Abandoned streets echo with distant groans. Overgrown buildings hide traps, secrets — and worse. As you explore, you’ll traverse a vast and varied world, including:
- Dusty desert villages, haunted by heat and memory
- Frozen wasteland islands, where the wind carries whispers of the dead
- Crumbling resort towns, once full of life, now choked by rot and ravenous hordes
Each location tells a story — of loss, betrayal, and the fragile will to survive.
Survival on the Edge: Combat, Vehicles & Strategy
The infected aren’t just mindless monsters. They move with eerie unpredictability, swarm in terrifying waves, and adapt to your tactics. Whether you’re taking down a horde with precision headshots or panicking into a grenade barrage, every fight feels visceral and dangerous.
But survival isn’t just about firepower. Darkest Days introduces vehicular combat like no other — you can hijack and upgrade:
- Civilian sedans and trucks
- Armed police cruisers and ambulances
- Even armored rescue vehicles, equipped with turrets and flamethrowers
Use them to plow through hordes, escape collapsing zones, or defend your base during night attacks.
And when the fighting ends, you’ll build your sanctuary. Base construction is more than just shelter — it’s your lifeline:
- Fortify with turrets, walls, and moats
- Recruit survivor NPCs with unique skills (medics, engineers, scouts)
- Establish farms, forges, and power grids
- Engineer traps and ambush zones to turn the tide
Every decision shapes your fate.
Co-op Chaos: Horde Mode, Mutants, and PvP
Darkest Days thrives in multiplayer — whether you’re fighting solo or teaming up with friends.
- Horde Mode: Hold the line against endless waves of zombies and mutants
- Mutant Boss Fights: Battle grotesque, biomechanical nightmares with devastating abilities
- PvP Zones: Fight over scarce resources in brutal player-versus-player arenas
The global beta launches with Season 1: Fake Champion Luna — an epic narrative arc centered on Luna Bloody, a legendary kendo master who survived the outbreak alone. Recruit her, uncover her dark past, and unlock her devastating sword techniques in combat.
Free-to-Play. No Compromises.
Available now on Google Play, Darkest Days offers deep gameplay and long-term progression — all free to start. No pay-to-win, just real survival.
For fans of gritty post-apocalyptic action, Darkest Days isn’t just another zombie game — it’s a descent into humanity’s last stand.
