Despite it being over 5 years since the last installment in the Darksiders series launched, the series has been very active thanks to remasters of the first two games. This led many to wonder if a third game in the series was secretly in the works, and now it looks like that is the case.
Amazon’s product listings have leaked the reveal of Darksiders 3 from THQ Nordic and Gunfire Games, which is set to launch for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC in 2018. There’s actually a decent chunk of information about the game from the game’s page, detailing the character and gameplay. It is detailed below.
- “Play as FURY – a mage who must rely on her whip and magic to restore the balance between good and evil on Earth!
- Harness FURY’s magic to unleash her various forms – each granting her access to new weapons, moves and traversal abilities
- Explore an open-ended, living, free-form game world in which FURY moves back and forth between environments to uncover secrets while advancing the story
- Defeat the Seven Deadly Sins and their servants who range from mystical creatures to degenerated beings
- Darksiders signature art style – expansive post-apocalyptic environments that take the player from the heights of heaven to the depths of hell, dilapidated by war and decay and overrun by nature”

The original Darksiders launched in 2010 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC, though the remastered “Warmastered Edition” came to PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC late last year. The Warmastered Edition will also be coming to Wii U, with its launch scheduled for later this month on May 23rd. Darksiders 2 originally launched in 2012 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U and PC, before getting a remastered “Deathinitive Edition” in 2015 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
It’s great news to hear that Darksiders 3 is happening, as the series is definitely underrated and deserves to be continued. More information on the game will likely be coming soon, so be sure to stay tuned.
