Moon Beast Productions has officially launched a Kickstarter campaign for its ambitious multiplayer ARPG, Darkhaven, seeking $500,000 in funding. The campaign surged immediately, pulling in $79,906 within the first half-day. This supports a project promising a fully destructible, procedurally generated sandbox world with Diablo-inspired progression.

The developer is framing its pre-alpha demo on Steam as an "unfiltered" foundation, not a polished teaser, allowing extensive exploration of core mechanics. This approach aims to build community trust through transparency. The funding target will enable expanding character classes, skills, mob types, biomes, and the game's lore and quest systems.

A published development timeline targets a Steam Early Access release in Q4 2026. The Kickstarter runs until March 20, 2026, giving the studio just over a month to secure full funding. The current pre-alpha build serves as the primary vehicle for player feedback on the game's unique blend of open exploration and ARPG combat.
