THQ is hyping up Darksiders II as one of their biggest titles of the year; and we’re okay with that, because it’s looking pretty enticing with its blend of open-world action-adventure, hack n’ slash gameplay, cinematic set-pieces, and mature, colourful, visceral art direction.
The story of Darksiders II runs parallel to that of the original game, and while War is rampaging across an apocalypse-torn Earth, his counter-part Death will be working behind the scenes to uncover more of the hellishly insidious demonic plot to overthrow the heavens with Earth as the battleground.
In the latest CGI trailer tease, we see a little bit less than we have in previous videos (such as Death’s impressive assault on a gargantuan foe); the reason for this becomes apparent as we are encouraged to head on over to the Darksiders Facebook page and hit the ‘Like’ button to unlock the full-length trailer. Hopefully we’ll get to see Death dual-wielding his scythes and cutting through the demonic ranks.
Catch the teaser below and read more on MyGaming’s coverage of Darksiders II.
