Have you ever played Darkest Dungeon? If you haven’t, the title has been popular since the dark fantasy RPG dropped on Steam in 2016. The game forces you to not only fight terrifying creatures, but attempt to keep your party alive and sane. The fun balance has led to plenty of content expansions, including one that will drop this year. However, Red Hook Studios has revealed that they’re teaming up with Vault Comics to make an in-canon graphic novel series for the game! Here’s an official breakdown of the graphic novels, which you can sign up to get when they go live on Backerkit soon:

“Vault’s Darkest Dungeon graphic novels will be written by John Lees, and drawn by Maan House, working
in close consultation with Red Hook Studios co-founder and Darkest Dungeon creative director, Chris
Bourassa. Lees is known for his writing on acclaimed horror titles like The Nasty (Vault Comics) and Hotell
(AWA). Meanwhile, House is known for drawing Dark Souls (Titan Comics), based on the best-selling video
game, along with other other horror titles like The Cemeterians (Vault Comics).

“I grew up reading comics. I learned to draw from studying the carefully crafted panels of the bronze age
Batman books, and later, the exuberant splash pages of the Image Comics revolution. Darkest Dungeon was
born of a deep love of this medium, and from day one, I’ve always dreamed of seeing it on the page. I
couldn’t be more excited to work with the team at Vault to make this a reality – together, we’re going to do it
right,” said Red Hook Studios co-founder Chris Bourassa. “This book will be a meaningful, canonical entry
in the ongoing lore of Darkest Dungeon, offering long-time fans new and important insights while
introducing new readers to the characters, tone, and world that made our games so successful.”

Vault’s all-new graphic novels will tell a canonical story set in the universe of Darkest Dungeon, revealing
new details and introducing new mysteries at the heart of the Darkest Dungeon core mythology.”

The team at Vault Comics has promised that regardless of how “connected” you are to comics or the gaming series, you’ll have something to look forward to in the campaign. If this is as successful as the teams hope, it’s very likely that more books will be made down the line. In other words…sign up today!
