  Official

Google has been teasing a dark theme for Maps for over a year now, and it even briefly rolled out to a few people, but it was never properly formalized or acknowledged officially. That's changing today, as Google has just finally announced that dark mode is now rolling out to everyone.

The wait for the dark mode was worth it. It's well executed and makes it easy to make out streets and houses, losing little to no clarity compared to the light theme.
