About this game

Darkflow is a sci-fi adventure RPG set beyond the veil of space where you play as a human merc who refuses to accept “no” as an answer. Fight your way out of the slums all the way to the top as you take on increasingly dangerous–and lucrative–jobs to make a name for yourself in all the circles that matter.

Discover cosmic mysteries.

Left with more questions than answers, you must navigate space marred by a war of betrayal on a galactic scale in a universe where being human alone is enough to make you a target. Accompanied by your loyal yet unpredictable companion, Styxx, begin your conquest to uncover the truth about your origin, what happened to humankind, and the mysterious fate of your lost home world.

Empowered with a unique link to powerful forgotten technology on the brink of a new war, how far will you go to discover your past?



Venture into the unknown.

Set 1,000 years after human civilization has fallen, Darkflow takes place in a universe that is still reeling from a long forgotten war. Featuring one of the most accurate representations of a black hole in any game or film, Darkflow brings an unprecedented space experience to you with stunning levels of fidelity.



Steal. Earn. Upgrade.

From the gritty confines of the shady space station Neon, you'll regroup, hit the streets, and kick back in your apartment as you prepare for your next contract. In the mercenary world, there are no free rides—surviving your next mission hinges on your crew, your gear, and your sheer determination to defy the odds.
