US based search engine giant Google has finally started rolling out the dark mode update for its Play Store, after the release of Android 10.

With the new update all apps on the Play Store are set to gradually get a dark mode of their own.

A black-themed Play Store is being rolled out on Pixel handsets at present. The new design only seems to be available for a few users so far, but would be rolling out globally very soon, news portal Tech Radar reported on Thursday.
