It’s difficult to know what to recommend in situations like this.
Should you avoid spoiling the full experience of a fantastic upcoming game to go into that experience fresh, not knowing what to expect? Or should you absorb every last bit of footage and read every last scrap of information to cement in your mind how fantastic that game is going to be?
THQ has just released a brand new screenshot for Darksiders II depicting a battle between new protagonist Death, and hero of the original Darksiders, War.
Brothers and Horseman of the Apocalypse they may be, but there’s no doubt that they’re locked in an epic scrap with one another - what could the reason be?
At the end of last week, THQ held a London press event to further reveal a collection of the publisher’s titles including Company of Heroes 2, Metro: Last Light and, of course, Darksiders II.
All of these titles are very exciting indeed, but one of the games’ characters would have stood out to attendees more than any other thanks to an outstanding bit of ‘mural’ art that was in the process of being created throughout the event.
Prepare for a severe case of dry mouth, because following the formal, official release of yesterday’s Darksiders II CG cinematic trailer, a segment of just as amazing gameplay footage has found its way onto the ‘net thanks to an epic preview by G4TV.
Watch below as creative manager on Darksiders II, Jeremy Greiner, walks us through a fantastic encounter with ‘The Guardian Boss,’ which Greiner says is “probably the biggest boss battle in the game.”
Darksiders II from THQ and Vigil Games is coming… and so is Death.
This ancient warrior is on a quest for vengeance in the vast stretches of the Underworld where he’ll encounter enemies, characters, a universe and challenges that go beyond your wildest imaginings.
A brand new CG trailer for Darksiders II has been let loose, and in it, you’ll be able to get an idea of the world and its denizens as Death effortlessly slashes through demons and behemoths, with a ‘transformation’ revealed, too…
Do. Not. Miss. This uncontrollably spectacular CG trailer for Darksiders II, not only for the jaw-dropping action and pumping audio, but because you’ll also be able to catch a glimpse of Death in his iconic, scythe-wielding, robe-wearing state. Simply amazing:
Following a disappointing release date slip for THQ and Vigil’s Darksiders II from June to August, gamers looking forward to this amazing action adventure game contented themselves with the game’s previously-released trailers and screenshots, as well as an additional, final ‘Behind the Mask’ feature video.
Vigil Games has offered one last in-depth peek behind the mask of Death, the all-new protagonist in the studio’s upcoming action adventure game, Darksiders II.
While it’s certainly a pity that the game was delayed into August this year, thanks to the delay of another awesome title, Darksiders II has become the undisputed number one most anticipated game of 2012 for at least a couple members of El33tonline.
Why would we choose to post up a trailer for Darksiders II that’s coated in German text, as opposed to something that’s more comprehensible for English readers?
It’s very unfortunate that we bring you news of a release date delay for THQ and Vigil’s Darksiders II, an action adventure game that members of El33tonline would have no problem placing in our top three (or at number one, even!) most anticipated games of 2012.
Following reports and speculation last night and this morning, publisher THQ has formally announced a change in direction for its upcoming action game, Warhammer 40K: Dark Millennium.
2010 started off with a bang for us gamers thanks to the January release of the original Darksiders. Many people praised the game’s combat and exploration mechanics and compared it favourably to The Legend of Zelda series. Fast forward to the present day and Darksiders II is only three months away from release. Exciting times!
Thanks to a European preview event based in a church in Amsterdam, and following on from today’s (jaw-dropping) CG trailer, we’ve managed to piece together some more amazing looks at Darksiders 2, THQ and Vigil’s next action adventure game set in the mythical, crushing world of The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
A new CGI trailer for Darksiders II has surfaced and trust us when we say it’s the perfect way to end your day. It shows Death cutting a path through his enemies, relentless and unforgiving.
Watch below and see Death in action.
In the last video diary, developers from Vigil Games focussed on the character of Death, the new protagonist chosen for your adventures in the upcoming Darksiders II, and spoke about how the nimble, brawling assassin will bring a new angle to combat in the franchise.
In a new developer diary, team members speak about the immense scale and scope of the world and environments we’ll see in Darksiders II, as well as the incredible characters and creatures we’ll meet and contend with along the way.
This is going to be one amazing adventure:
It seems whenever we talk about Darksiders II, we always have to mention how excited we are about THQ and Vigil’s upcoming action adventure game, but it really is true!
We’re massive fans of the first Darksiders game and we’re get antsy to take control of everyone’s worst nightmare, the agile Death, as he continues the story of his brother and fellow member of The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, War.
