Hi Ichigo,
I'll keep my eye out for some and mention them if I find any more. I'm honestly looking for the same kind of thing on here, lol. I know some people here will chime in soon enough to help you out with other stories.
Right now, I can try to recommend my own story.
Some of my readers have described it as 'Berserk-like' before. It's a grim fantasy story. The pilot story involves a bit of a dungeon-delve. The main story is right now sliced between a female warrior and a male oracle. There will be other characters dropped in as the story progresses.
It's fairly dark. There's plenty of drama. It's mature (death is present, realistic consequences of actions, grim atmosphere, a bit of blood, and some swearing). It's dark swords & sorcery-style fantasy (like Berserk) with some weird fantasy (Lovecraftian elements) thrown in.
The story is: The Vorrgistadt Saga.
Hopefully this helps until others respond with their own suggestions.
Thank you, also, for looking into this particular genre. It's pretty rare to find readers looking for these kinds of stories. Hence, why my journey continues to find more, lol. You make me want to go back and read Berserk again. ^_^

I don't know of one personally, but you can use the grimdark tag and get fairly decent result. Maybe even play with the horror and tragedy genre tags?
You can't search for 'mature' tags currently, but I believe they'll be implementing that feature in the next update.

My apocalyptic serial, Don't Feed The Dark, is very dark, has drama, and definitely follows under the 'mature' rating. Definitely not for the squeamish. If you're looking for something long, you could give my story a peek.
