Dark mode has been one of your most requested site features for a long time, and we’re thrilled to announce that it is finally available on Eurogamer. Whether you’re a night owl catching up on the latest Digital Foundry breakdowns, a seasoned RPG veteran reading our guides by candlelight (or in a dimly lit room), or simply someone who values their retinas – dark mode is ready to use.
You’ll find a new toggle in the site’s footer which allows you to switch between light and dark modes at your leisure. Choose what works best for you. Set it to “Auto” and the site will match whatever colour preferences you have set in your computer or phone’s operating system. We’ll remember your settings for next time, too.
We’ve spent time getting this right, testing readability, contrast, and ensuring it works across articles, comments and everything in between. But with any new feature there may be glitches or bits we’ve missed. Feel free to let us know about them if you spot anything odd.
We hope you like it, whether you’ve been reading us since the early days of the site – when it was, in fact, a dark website! – or you’ve just landed here for the very first time.
Thanks for sticking with us, and enjoy the new look (and extra battery efficiency).
