Promo code for 20 days of PvE subscription: DS20pve

Dear friends, exactly 20 years ago, on October 21, 2004, the first server of DarkSwords was launched in Alcar (Ukraine). This date marks the beginning of the games history. Weve been together for many years now. Many of our players, who were once children, now have children of their own. Thank you for staying with us all these years. Weve experienced some stagnation, but we are once again working to develop the game. We hope to breathe new life into the beloved DS. Good luck and prosperity to all players.

• Only until October 27, get a 20% bonus in platinum and palladium from purchases with dealers (in addition to the permanent +30% bonus), as well as +100% Mogash Marks! (credited within 24 hours)

• On October 21 at 20:30 server time, there will be a festive cake distribution. All players online at that time will receive a gift: a piece of the festive cake, which grants an HP/MP gift (does not count toward the sphere limit, counts toward the 180% limit, only one cake can be used at a time, transferable).

Dear Players,
By the end of this week, we plan to release the final version of the client with enhanced security measures. We hope this will help us address the client protocol protection issue, which should have been implemented during the games development phase. Following this release, we will continue to make other changes in the game.

Additionally, many of you have requested a lottery feature, and we will be launching it soon for you.

Thank you for staying with DarkSwords.

Best regards, The Administration

Dear Users,

We are excited to announce that on Monday, May 27, 2024, we will be releasing a new version of the client with an updated protocol. Please note that you will not be able to access the game with the old version after this update.

Unfortunately, updating the client in the Microsoft Store and Steam might take some time, so we kindly ask for your patience as these updates are processed.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

Thank you, The DarkSwords Team
