Darkeden was released way back in 1998, at the time it was a huge success in Asia, with spin-off Servers reaching the West.
Nowadays its faded into obscurity, few gamers know it even exists but thankfully, there’s a dedicated playerbase all across the world.

Quite a few servers have spawned over the years, many go down quickly but some have been around for a long time. Veteran players love the game so much they create their own servers, I’ve been searching for a decent server for so long.
I’ve playtested multiple servers in the past year, I also remember a ton as I’ve played well over a dozen servers in my time.
Check out this list of active Darkeden servers, giving you everything you need to know if you’re looking to rejoin the game
GamenGame servers
Avoid like the plague. G&G are a horrific company, with absolutely no customer support and pure pay2win gameplay. Sure, their servers are updated but you really don’t want to support them.
An example is a bug that players abused, so G&G rolled back the server by over a month. This included in-game purchases, players who spent real money were NOT refunded. All they got was a few days of x2 exp.

Has all the problems a V2 server has, quite a lot of content missing. Server seems stable though, haven’t played it enough to comment on progression.
Few players mostly all BR as far as I can tell.

Played it a while now, level 250 vamp with full set etc (IGN: DevlinCr0w)
Decent playerbase, a lot of English speaking players. Server seems to go down occasionally for a minute or 2.
Lots of events, server owner replies to messages quickly which is awesome
Definitely not pay2win which I love. Race balance isn’t very good ATM though, Slayers are easily the best even when outnumbered!
Balance patch coming soon which will hopefully makes things more fair lol overall it’s a great server though!

Very new server, tried it but there was lots of bugs and no content. I’ve seen the admin has added a TON of stuff though as well as bug fixes and server stability. V2 Darkeden is not for me but if it’s a version you enjoy, this server seems great!

Once a huge server with a massive community. It seems the server went down some time ago and a new (or the same) team is working to get it back. Server says online on the website.
