Ironmace announced that it will participate in back-to-back events, starting with PAX West 2026 in the United States on September 4, followed by Tokyo Game Show 2026 (TGS 2026) in Japan opening on September 17.

Ironmace will operate B2C booths for general attendees at both events. At the booths, the company plans to showcase minigame content designed to let players experience the exploration and extraction elements of its flagship title Dark and Darker in a short period of time.

PAX West 2026 will take place from September 4 to 7 at the Seattle Convention Center in the US. Launched in 2004, PAX West is a major B2C gaming event in North America that attracts tens of thousands of visitors every year.

Tokyo Game Show 2026 will be held from September 17 to 21 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, the event will run for five days for the first time, with September 19 through 21 open as public days for general visitors.

Ironmace will prepare new merchandise at each booth and run an event where existing Dark and Darker players can receive special merchandise upon completing an on-site verification process. Detailed participation instructions will be provided through the game's official website and Discord channel.

An official from Ironmace said, "Directly hearing and communicating with global players on-site is a crucial asset in raising the game's level of polish," adding, "We decided to attend both events to communicate directly with players in North America and Japan."

Meanwhile, Ironmace also participated in the B2B hall at ChinaJoy 2026 in China, held from July 31 to August 3. Dark and Darker is an extraction PvPvE game featuring dungeon exploration and combat set in a medieval fantasy world.
