AI Summary
Krafton has cancelled the global launch of Abyss of Dungeon. The game will remain live only in six existing soft-launch territories. Pre-registration data is being deleted as the studio pivots its strategy.

Krafton’s latest mobile endeavour, Abyss of Dungeon, which entered soft launch this past June, has officially pulled the plug on its global rollout.
Formerly known as 'Dark and Darker Mobile' until May, Abyss of Dungeon is a mobile dungeon crawler that had been building anticipation since global pre-registration opened last August. By June 11, the title had reached a soft launch phase across six territories: Indonesia, Thailand, Brazil, Mexico, the United States, and Canada.
On the 18th, the team behind Abyss of Dungeon took to their official website to break the news. The official statement noted that this decision followed an internal assessment of the soft launch data, leading to a complete re-evaluation of their service strategy. 'We sincerely apologise for sharing such disappointing news instead of the global launch that so many adventurers have been eagerly awaiting,' the developer remarked.
While the global expansion is off the table, the game will remain accessible in the six regions where it soft-launched, with future updates to be shared via official channels. As pre-registration comes to an abrupt end, all previously submitted user information will be wiped automatically.
Krafton added, 'Abyss of Dungeon has received significant interest and affection from players across various nations during its global tests and soft launch. However, after deep internal deliberation, the team concluded that focusing on long-term quality and service refinement is the priority. It is regrettable, but the decision has been made to cease global pre-registrations and cancel the worldwide service rollout.'

지난 6월 소프트 론칭을 한 크래프톤 모바일 신작 '어비스 오브 던전'이 글로벌 서비스를 포기했다.
어비스 오브 던전은 지난 5월 '다크앤다커 모바일'에서 타이틀명을 바꾼 모바일 던전크롤러다. 작년 8월부터 글로벌 사전 등록을 시작했으며, 지난 6월에는 11일 인도네시아, 태국, 브라질, 멕시코, 미국, 캐나다 6개 국가에서 소프트 론칭을 했다.
크래프톤은 18일 어비스 오브 던전 공식 홈페이지를 통해 "이번 결정은 소프트 론칭의 결과에 따른 것으로, 전체 서비스 전략을 재검토하고 출시 계획을 조정하게 됐다"라며, "많은 모험가들이 간절히 기다려온 글로벌 출시 대신 실망스러운 소식을 전하게 되어 사과드린다"고 전했다.
글로벌 출시는 진행되지 않지만, 게임이 현재 소프트 론칭된 6개 국가에서는 이후에도 플레이 가능하며, 변경 사항은 향후 공식 발표를 통해 공유될 예정이다. 사전 등록이 종료됨에 따라, 이전에 이용자들이 제출한 모든 정보가 자동으로 삭제된다.
크래프톤은 "어비스 오브 던전은 글로벌 테스트와 소프트 론칭을 통해 다양한 국가의 이용자로부터 많은 관심과 애정을 받아왔으나, 내부적으로 깊은 논의와 고민을 거듭한 끝에 장기적인 관점에서 더 완성도 높은 게임과 서비스에 집중하는 것이 맞다는 결론을 냈다"라며, "아쉽지만 어비스 오브 던전의 글로벌 사전 예약을 중단하고 글로벌 전역 서비스를 진행하지 않기로 결정했다"라고 전했다.
