THQ Nordic and Airship Syndicate announced Darksiders Genesis, the first action adventure with a top-down perspective of the history of the franchise. The game is planned to be published on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Google Stadia at the end of 2019.
The game will be shown at the THQ Nordic stand in a playable variant at E3 2019. "Darksiders Genesis is beginning a fresh direction for the Darksiders franchise, including a fresh style of play, the implementation of Conflict— the fourth and last rider— and much more," said Joe Madureira, co-creator of the Airship Syndicate series and CEO. "The Airship team looks forward to bringing Darksiders Genesis into the hands of fans during the E3 to be held next week in Los Angeles." In Darksiders Genesis, the fourth Knight of the Apocalypse, Conflict, is called to save humanity from Lucifer's destruction. True to its origins, the title features intense fighting, exploration, puzzles, and distinctive boss battles. Below is the game announcement trailer.
