Dark Quest 4 announced

The new installment in the Dark Quest franchise was revealed yesterday.

Turn-based RPG dungeon crawler Dark Quest 4 will arrive on the Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PlayStation, and PC (via Steam). An announcement trailer can be seen here.

Argi Baltzi, Game Director of Dark Quest 4 said this about the title:

“Dark Quest 4 is the game I dreamed of playing as a kid — one where your imagination leads the way, every quest feels personal, and the table comes alive before your eyes. This is more than just a game; it’s an invitation to adventure, to create, and to relive the magic of the classics we grew up loving.”

A synopsis for Dark Quest 4 reads:

In Dark Quest 4, players build a party of three heroes and take on epic, hand-crafted missions in a world that looks and feels like a physical tabletop board game. With its unique animated figurines, charming visuals, and a fully voiced dungeon master (the sorcerer himself), the game brings the magic of old-school dungeon crawling to a whole new generation.

Play solo or bring up to two friends along in an adventure where strategy meets creativity and imagination.

Key Features:

  • 30+ Hours of Handcrafted Campaign Content – Embark on a rich, story-driven campaign filled with unique quests and challenges.

  • Multiplayer for Up to 3 Players – Team up with friends and tackle dungeons together.

  • Turn-Based Tactical Combat – Carefully position your heroes and plan your moves in grid-based battles.

  • Level Editor & Steam Workshop Integration – Create your own quests and campaigns, or explore adventures made by the community.
