The cover of GameInformer came out today, and on it? THQ’s sequel to the apocalyptic action game Darksiders.
In the original Darksiders, you played War, one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. In Darksiders II, you pick up the mantle of War’s brother, Death.
Vigil, the developers, mentioned that there will be more RPG-like elements than Darksiders contained, as well as a loot system and more NPC interaction than the first game.
I talked to THQ’s community manager, Mat Everett, and he was very excited about the art direction of Darksiders II under Studio Creative Director “Joe Mad” Madureira. “The fact that he’s on board is a very big deal,” said Mat.
GameInformer has an exclusive for the next few weeks, so you’ll have to get your up-to-date Darksiders II news from them. They’ll be releasing an exclusive Darksiders II trailer tomorrow at 11am CST.
