All the unreleased features in Google Chrome are made available on the Flags section of the browser. This could be accessed as below;

- Search for “Experimental Web Platform features” and enable it. Then relaunch the browser.
- Going through the Available section, you’ll find hundreds of unreleased features listed with options for force enabling them before rollout. You may go through the whole list to find the one’s interesting to you or search for a specific one in the search bar above if you have something in mind already.
- Upon selecting the desired one, check the settings button aside of the feature saying Disabled. Click on it to set Enabled, and reopen the browser.
This will activate the feature instantly to let you experience it. On my suggestion, search for darkened search pages and web contents to see the dark theme applied to all contents in Chrome.
