''[[Darkest Dungeon]]'' is a 2016 [[Roguelike]]/[[Dungeon Crawling]] video game by Red Hook Games in which the player takes on the role of an heir to a once-proud but now-fallen noble house. The heir is summoned to the old estate by a letter from his ancestor, which explains that he heard rumors of great power dwelling beneath the manor, spent the family fortune excavating it, and unearthed terrible things. The player then recruits, equips and dispatches teams of heroes into various dungeons surrounding the manor to put down the monsters that have come to dwell there, and clean up the Ancestor's mess.
DLC content includes The Crimson Court (introduced June 2017) which introduces a new, difficult BonusDungeon that can be tackled alongside the main campaign; The Color of Madness (June 2018) that introduces an Endless side mode with bosses of its own, and The Butcher's Circus (May 2020) which adds [[Player Versus Player]] content independent from the main campaign.
A sequel has been announced for release late in 2021. Confirmed for this sequel is Wayne June reprising his role as the Ancestor, and Grave Robber, Hellion, Highwayman, Leper, Man-at-Arms, and Plague Doctor returning as playable heroes. Promotional material seems to suggest the heroes will be delving far beyond the Hamlet of the first game, that they will be embarking on a "grueling journey" in which they would see the "supernatural apocalypse twisting and distorting the world beyond the estate".
