Amazon has just leaked the new Darksiders game that THQ Nordic will reveal in the next couple of days. This new Darksiders game is called Darksiders Genesis, will feature an isometric viewpoint, and its first screenshots have surfaced.
Darksiders Genesis will be an action/adventure that tears its way through hordes of demons, angels, and everything in-between on its way to Hell and back with guns blazing and swords swinging. Genesis aims to give players their first look at the world of Darksiders before the events of the original game, as well as introduces the horseman STRIFE.
Here is the game’s description according to its Amazon listing.
“From the dawn of creation, THE COUNCIL has maintained the Balance across existence. Carrying out their orders are THE HORSEMEN, Nephilim (powerful beings spawned from the unnatural union of angels and demons) who have pledged themselves to the Council and been granted immense power. However, this power came at a tragic cost: the Horsemen were ordered to use their newfound strength to wipe out the rest of their kind. What followed was a bloody battle on Eden where the Horsemen, obeying the will of the Council, annihilated the Nephilim. Still reeling from the events on Eden, WAR and STRIFE have been given a new assignment — LUCIFER, the enigmatic and deceptive demon king, has been plotting to upset the Balance by granting power to master demons throughout Hell. War and Strife must hunt down these masters, gather information, and ultimately fight their way through a tangled, demonic conspiracy that threatens to forever upset the Balance and unravel all of creation.”
As said, we expect THQ Nordic to officially reveal Darksiders Genesis in the next couple of days. Right now, the game has a December 31st placeholder release date on Amazon so we are not certain whether it’s coming this year or in 2020.
Enjoy the following screenshots and stay tuned for more!

Darksidiablo?
Trash. Why fix what isn’t broken? This will be a catastrophe failure.
I liked Darksiders 3…a lot…
cant agree with u more brother..
At this point it looks like every Darksiders must imitate an entirely different series.
wtf noooooo
What a waste omg
Oh b*tch I can’t wait to enjoy the backlash this will get. This will be the new Diablo Immortals for sure. I’m a fan of the first two games, third one was ok, nothing special but it still felt like DS. This one will be a huge flop.
This reminds me of what they did with Overlord games as well.
YESSS…screw you DIABLO!
this is not what i wanted
Wtf is this
diablo lol
what the actual f*k?
i second that
sigh, i wanted to play as strife for so long and now is some top down coop shooter.
sniff…..fck youuuuuuuuuuuuuu
2 was a prequel and turned into a grindfest so who cares.
looks awesome! cant wait
Considering the third game just came out i was kinda expecting it to be a mobile game. Though i guess this isnt far off from that.
*insert “But Y Tho” meme here*
Utter disappointment!!!
Darksiders came back home to papa. lol
I am looking forward to it. This is not meant to be Darksiders 4. This is a game meant to flesh out the franchise. There is nothing wrong with experimenting. I believe we shall see a Darksiders 4 but I think it will be all 4 members of the horseman. They needed to flesh out Strife but smartly in my opinion are doing it with a lower budget, smaller scope game. I mean after all if you call a game Darksiders 4 it better have 4 playable horseman. So, on one hand I get why many would be like WTF? That said, I must say I am just as sick and fed up with Game devs, Pubs, Game Urinalists, etc. pushing B.S. and none sense. However, gamers are getting just as intolerable. Nothing is ever good enough. You guys realize the studio doing this game is smaller Dev and not Gun Fire Game and is done by Airship Syndicate right? They brought us Battle Chasers: Nightwar a game I happened to enjoy even though it was a lower budget game. I expect nothing but a good solid player experience, good mechanics, and a good story. Lighten up and enjoy games and life more.
