By now, it’s no secret that there are members of El33tonline who would like nothing better than to magically find a copy of Darksiders II sitting on their desk right this instant, but unfortunately we’re going to have to wait a few months more to go hands-on with Vigil’s next action adventure masterwork.
Until then, we’ll have to content ourselves with smatterings of screenshots and trailers for the game, and by watching a developer diary discussing the series’ all-new protagonist, Death.
How is Death different to War in the original Darksiders, what kinds of weapons can Death wield and what kind of world can we expect to immerse ourselves in during Darksiders II?

El33tonline if you do manage to magically find a copy of Darksiders II before release, don't let me know else it might magically disappear ;)
It's a good thing that they're adding more characters in this game, cause the first Darksiders had few characters, but they were amazingly scripted and totally awrsum!
Will do... or won't do... or.... we'll keep it a secret! ;)
I've really enjoyed playing as War in Darksiders, but Death is going to be an amazing character to play as in Darksiders II - so fluid and brutal at the same time! And all those weapons!
I hope they announce a formal release date soon!
I need to really play the first game. Feels like I"m missing out on something....SMUROH Give me your darksiders NOW!!!!
This game is going to be really really awesome.
I think im going to have to replay Darksiders, its an awesome game was something different cant wait for darksiders 2
