Press release:
Vienna, Austria and Austin, Texas, October 22, 2019 – THQ Nordic and Airship Syndicate today kicked off the PC pre-order campaign for the highly anticipated “Darksiders Genesis“, the first top-down action adventure in Darksiders franchise history featuring couch co-op and online co-op #togetherthroughhell #GunsNHorses #notalone

Pre-Order on PC here: https://darksiders.com/order-here/

Darksiders Genesis features the debut of the fourth and final horsemen – STRIFE – who can battle alongside his brother and fellow horsemen WAR in the first ever Darksiders two-player co-op mode.

Solo players will be able to alternate between STRIFE and WAR on the fly, taking advantage of STRIFE’s ranged and WAR’s melee style attacks. Both characters can build up a special attack meter that, when activated, temporarily turns them into a colossal creature that leaves epic destruction in its wake.

Darksiders Genesis is currently in development for PC, Google Stadia and all current-gen console platforms. The PC and Google Stadia versions of Darksiders Genesis will release on December 5, 2019. The console versions will release on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2020.
