Penned by legendary comic book artist Joe Madureira (X-Men, Battle Chasers, The Ultimates), Darksiders is set in a Post-Apocalyptic demon-ravaged world where evil forces have prematurely brought about the end of the time.
Originally sent to oversee the destruction of Earth, the Four
Horsemen of the Apocalypse have been betrayed by their master, stripped
of their powers and cast down to Earth.
Take on the role of WAR -
the first of the Four Horsemen - as he embarks on a brutal quest of
vengeance against the forces that betrayed him with the help of his
phantom steed RUIN.
Darksiders features open-world exploration, a deep combat system and a huge arsenal of modern and mythical weapons.
Darksiders™ - London Event
Read the latest previews and watch the hot new trailer...
Last week we invited people to come and check out Darksiders and spend some time with the game at an exclusive event in London.
Creative Director Joe Mad and Executive Producer Luis Gigliotti kicked off the day introducing everyone to the world of Darksiders, showing off some of the weapons and gear featured in the game... before everyone grabbed a pad for an extensive hands-on. Check out some photos from the event on our Flickr Gallery.
You can read impressions of Darksiders from the event on IGN, GameSpot, Videogamer and CVG.
We've also just released a brand new trailer of Darksiders and updated our screenshot gallery. Watch the trailer on THQ TV and head over to the Darksiders gallery to check out the screens.
