The Darkness Will Find You expands the Deep Dark into a harsher and more dangerous horror experience built around sculk, darkness and survival.

The Curse of Darkness is a progression-based threat that begins when the player draws the attention of the sculk.
Once the curse starts, nights become unsafe, sleeping is no longer reliable, dark dimensions become even more dangerous and the world begins to react: sculk spreads, creatures gather, unsettling events occur and the player is forced to search for protection, knowledge and a way to end the curse. To survive, players will need to explore buried structures, study the sculk, craft new equipment, use strange magical items and trade with a new villager profession. New creatures, underground structures, progression systems and configurable horror events keep the Deep Dark threatening long after the player first enters it.
