In Don't Starve Together, Dark Tatters are used in the creation of Void Gear at the Shadowcraft Plinth.

Trivia[]
- In the Shipwrecked DLC, Dark Tatters can be offered to the Volcano Altar of Snackrifice during Dry Season to appease the Volcano for 32 day segments, or 2 in-game days. This may be a suitable alternative use.
- Its name may be a reference to Dark Matters.
- Prior to the Terrors Below update to DST, Dark Tatters were only found in Hamlet, making them one of few items that has been transposed into DST from the DLC.
- Dark Tatters in Hamlet compared to DST have a large cosmetic difference, with the Hamlet tatters being more akin to black, bat-shaped pieces of cloth, whereas the tatters found in DST are red, making them appear as the red cowls the Ancient Herald and Inkblights wear
