Shadiochao Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) http://gematsu.com/2017/05/darksiders-iii-officially-announced-reveal-trailer Quote Following a leak this morning, THQ Nordic and Gunfire Games have officially announced that Darksiders III is currently in development for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, and slated for release in 2018. Here’s an overview of the game, via THQ Nordic: Return to an apocalyptic planet Earth in Darksiders III, a hack-n-slash action adventure where players take on the role of FURY in her quest to hunt down and dispose of the Seven Deadly Sins. The Charred Council calls upon Fury to battle from the heights of heaven down through the depths of hell in a quest to restore humanity and prove that she is the most powerful of the Horsemen. As a mage, FURY relies on her whip and magic to restore the balance between good and evil. The expansive, Darksiders III game world is presented as an open-ended, living, free-form planet Earth that is dilapidated by war and decay, and overrun by nature. FURY will move back and forth between environments to uncover secrets while advancing the Darksiders III story. IGN will have a month-long of “IGN First” coverage of the game in May, starting with the reveal trailer. Watch the reveal trailer below. Visit the official website here. On a related note, the Darksiders Fury Collection was released on the European PSN stores today. €19.99/£15.99 for the first two remastered games on PS4.

soniq Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Sounds very generic so far but at least people from Vigil work on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xZoneHunter Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I wasn't really a big fan of Darksiders II, but absolutely loved the first one. So i hope this turns out to be good! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbuk Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Darksiders II was a step down from 1, but I'm still excited for this because the first game was fantastic. That's one game from my E3 wishlist, now for the others to be announced/leaked too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asvinia Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I am wary of this, I already don't like that one of them is female, but that they're actually going with 'Fury' and not Pestilence or Conquest/Famine makes it a bit 'meh' to me. It'll be interesting to see a whip weapon though, don't get many of those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The horsemen in the Darksiders universe have been named Death, War, Strife and Fury from the very start I believe so changing it to Pestilence/Conquest for this one game wouldn't have made much sense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, I just had a minor hope they might change it, didn't think they would though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon-Archon Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Awww yeah! I liked the first Darksiders a lot, but the second one was disappointing. Here's hoping the third one will be amazing. I'm hoping Strife will get his own game and then the 4 riders all join together for the final clash in a 5th game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrickenBiged Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Sweet. I really enjoyed this series on 360 last gen. Glad to see the same people are back at development too. Hopefully, it'll be a bit more 1 and a little less 2, but both were cracking IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaZeroXX Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 This is really good news. Would love to see the 3rd installment. I may be in the minority here but I do like Darksiders 2. Maybe I just like the Darksiders series that I didn't notice those negative points identified from the 2nd chapter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hertz Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I love the first one, even though I never played it on PS but on my cousins Xbox, I never touched 2 so will see how this goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second one is the better one in my opinion it had a bit more to offer game play wise and had a lot more extra side content. And i'm sure the third will be a great game too. I hope the whip is more like Bayonetta's whip from Bayonetta 2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThiophenSJ Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Fucking great news! Been hoping for this since Darksiders II. While storywise DSII was a step-down in comparison to DSI, I really liked the worlds in DSII a lot more. Anyway, this is a great series and I'm happy to see continuation.

Caesar Clown Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 1 hour ago, Azaan60 said: Now let's hope we can get Destroy All Humans 3 That'd be Destroy All Humans! 4. Path of the Furon was 3, and for some unknown reason, was only released on PS3 in the UK (worldwide on the Xbox360 though). Big Willy Unleashed was a spin-off game so it didn't count in the numerical series. I'd settle for a "Remaster" of 3 and Big Willy, which could help fund a 4th in the series. As for Darksiders 3, I find it a bit odd they don't use Joe Madureira's name, just "signature artstyle". If I remember correctly he said he was talking with them a while back.

danceswithsloths Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) Yaaay! Omg wow i can't frickin wait! Platted both 1 and 2, and loved them both equaly, this is so exciting Edited May 2, 2017 by danceswithsloths Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuzzieWingman Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I think people don't give Darksiders II enough credit sometimes. The environs, combat and platforming were all better on the second game. Anyway, I've been wanting Darksiders 3 for a long time, and after THQ went bankrupt was annoyed that I wouldn't see the end of a great saga. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing her in the comic that was packed with the first game's SE or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
