A playable version of the game was presented at the 2012 Role Play Convention in Cologne, Germany[2] and the E3 2012.[4][5] A reveal trailer was released on May 24, 2012.[6] GameplayThe gameplay of Dark is based on stealth combat. Eric has many supernatural vampiric 'skills' at his disposal; he can use Shadow Leap to quickly teleport to different areas and to perform stealth finishers, make himself temporarily invisible, see in the dark and slow down time. His abilities are linked to a certain amount of 'blood points' which are used up each time Eric uses a skill. He can drink blood from his enemies to restore his health and blood points. PlotThe game follows the story of Eric Bane (Doug Cockle), a newly turned vampire suffering from amnesia. He learns that his transformation is not complete and that, if he does not drink the blood of his sire, he will mutate into a mindless ghoul. In order to avoid being such a foul creature, he receives missions to drink ancient vampires' blood. However, an angel in Eric's view appears to guide him to the righteous path, and ease intolerable pain that comes from not drinking appropriate blood as it disappears. With a question of this vision, he tries to recover his deleted memories and his true self.

In a mixed review, Jon Blythe of Official Xbox Magazine UK stated: "DARK is frustrating, because that initial feeling of being a zippy blur of a vampire in a world of neon-lit night never leaves you. It's just swamped in frustrating design decisions, a script that lurches from passable to laughable, weak enemy AI, and a vortex of a lead character who's impossible to like or hate."[14] Dan Whitehead of Eurogamer stated that "low-budget games can be delightful and surprising, but only if the core elements work. Here, they don't. In its best moments, this is only ever a reminder of better games. In its worst moments - of which there are far too many - Dark frustrates and irritates as only a clumsy stealth game can."[8] Michael Engle of The Game Scouts said, "I would rather [insert cliché about how to kill a vampire here] than play this game."[21] In the most negative review on the website, Andrew Reiner of Game Informer complained that "I’ve played a lot of bad Xbox 360 games for achievements, but hardly any are as unpolished and poorly executed as Dark. It’s easily one of this generation’s worst titles. Even when the stealth is working moderately well, the slow pacing is a killer, and no amount of blood sucking brings satisfaction. Most levels were completed through trial and error, failure after failure, and then success coming from exploiting an AI bug or an odd design decision."[9] References1. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.onlysp.com/latest-trailer-released-for-dark-a-cel-shaded-vampire-rpg/ | title = Latest trailer released for "DARK," a cel-shaded vampire RPG | work = OnlySP | first = Michael | last = Urban | date = 16 February 2013 | accessdate = 8 May 2013}} 2. ^1 {{cite web | url = http://www.gamerevolution.com/news/vampire-rpg-dark-will-suck-hopefully-12737 | title = Vampire RPG DARK Will Suck, Hopefully | work = Game Revolution | first = Nicholas | last = Tan | date = 4 May 2011}} 3. ^{{cite web | url = https://www.engadget.com/2012/05/14/dark-is-a-stealth-game-with-vampires-sneaking-to-xbox-pc/ | title = Dark is a stealth game with vampires, sneaking to Xbox, PC | work = Engadget (Joystiq) | first = Richard | last = Mitchell | date = 14 May 2012 | accessdate = 31 January 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.pcgameshardware.de/aid,889777/Dark-E3-Vorschau/Action-Spiel/News/ | title = Vampir-Action mit Dark: Muss man das Schleich-Action-Adventure auf der Rechnung haben?
