Darksiders, the marginally edgy tackle the Zelda format, is getting a model new recreation, although do not anticipate a lot from it simply but.
It’s been six years because the final installment within the mainline Darksiders sequence, Darksiders 3, was launched, which obtained pretty combined evaluations upon launch. Apart from the spin-off title Darksiders Genesis that was launched a yr later, it appeared just like the sequence was useless, maybe as a result of it simply couldn’t match into the earlier console technology. Nicely, combined evaluations or not, that doesn’t matter a lot, as writer THQ Nordic introduced a brand new installment within the sequence throughout its 2024 Digital Showcase, and this new installment is as soon as once more being developed by Gunfire Games.
One factor to notice is that Gunfire Games is run by David Adams, who based Vigil Games, the unique developer behind the primary two Darksiders, so it appears the sequence will persist with those that understand it finest. An Xbox cable blog entry “The menacing rumble of caverns millennia outdated. Embers swirl by way of the air, ejected from swimming pools of effervescent lava. Three huge heads, carved from otherworldly stone, instantly burst to life with a mystical flame. The charred Council roars a single phrase in unison: RIDER. It will not be lengthy till we reveal extra about the way forward for the Darksiders sequence, however for now, know this… the 4 Horsemen will trip once more.”
The trailer, which you’ll watch above, does not present an excessive amount of, simply a number of pictures of a lava-filled cave, ending with a shot of the aforementioned charred Council, three rocky heads stuffed with flames, calling out to the Riders. Nonetheless, for followers of the sequence (and Connor, too), it is excellent news at the least. THQ Nordic did not specify when it should share extra data, and even what consoles it should launch on, so keep tuned for extra.
