Mythic highlighted the changing situation between the start of the Kickstarter for Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game – which began its crowdfunding campaign in October 2020 and ended in November 2020 - and now, with the studio citing the effect that the COVID 19 Pandemic and the war in Ukraine has had on the industry. In an project update on the Kickstarter crowdfunding page, which was also sent out to backers in a newsletter, Mythic revealed that due to “the unsustainable increase in costs” required to complete manufacturing and shipping of the various Kickstarter versions of Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game, backers would need to pay a contribution. Mythic Games Inc, the studio responsible for releasing Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game, has apologised for the late delivery of the upcoming board game – which was originally due to ship to backers in November 2021 – and asked its backers for additional funding in order to cover increased manufacturing and production costs for the game. The publisher behind Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game has requested additional funding from its backers.
