THQ Nordic and Gunfire Games announced today that Darksiders III, the third installment of the Darksiders series is on the way! All we have so far is the IGN first trailer, but we know that the game is in development and is planned for release sometime in 2018 for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.
In Darksiders III, the user will take on the role of Fury, the third horseman of the apocalypse, following in the footsteps of War and Death. This time the enemy is not heaven or hell, but rather the escaped seven deadly sins.
From the THQ Nordic announcement:
“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.”
