Game Overview

From the dawn of creation, THE COUNCIL has maintained the Balance across existence. As the Horsemen, War and Strife, you're tasked with hunting down master demons who threaten to upset this delicate equilibrium. Your journey begins as you blast angels and demons in frenetic single-player gameplay, swapping between the powerful swordsman War and Strife instantly. But this is just the beginning - a brand new story campaign takes place before the original Darksiders, exploring the origin of the Seven Seals. With a focus on fast-paced combat, strategic Vigor powers, and a wealth of loot to collect, you'll tear your way through hordes of enemies in both single-player and two-player cooperative modes. As you grow in strength and power, uncover the tangled conspiracy that threatens all of creation and fight your way back to the fiery depths of Hell itself.

The core gameplay loop combines swift traversal with intense combat against a variety of demonic foes. Vigor powers allow for creative problem-solving, while an abundance of loot and abilities keep the experience fresh. When playing co-op, the sense of camaraderie is palpable as you work together to overcome challenges.

What sets Darksiders Genesis apart is its unique blend of hack-and-slash action, RPG elements, and top-down shooter mechanics. The game's world is richly detailed, with a focus on exploration and discovery that rewards curiosity.
