    Darksiders III (PC/PS4/XB1) - November 27, 2018 | Switch Edition - September 30, 2021

    Developed by Gunfire Games (formerly Vigil Games {Original Dev})
    THQ Nordic today announced that hack-n-slash action adventure Darksiders III is currently in development for PC, PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system and Xbox One, and is slated for release in 2018.

    “As promised, we have taken our time to ensure that this next Darksiders will be everything action-adventure gamers and especially Darksiders loyalists could dream of and more,” said Lars Wingefors, Co-Founder and Group CEO, THQ Nordic AB.

    The company also announced that it is working with the team at Gunfire Games, which is largely comprised of the original creators of the Darksiders franchise, on development of the long and highly-anticipated project.

    “The Gunfire team brings an intimate involvement with every aspect of the Darksiders franchise since its inception,” said Reinhard Pollice, Director of Business and Product Development, THQ Nordic. “There is simply no team better qualified to create Darksiders III, beginning with our unpredictable and enigmatic hero FURY – a mage who is considered the most powerful of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse!”

    About Darksiders III

    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.

    This looks far closer to the first game than the second, which is fine for me. I felt like 2 turned into a Borderlands clone except with melee combat instead of guns. They should focus on the combat and the dungeons rather than the gear variety.

    Releasing a game that has the content of 2, with the dungeon design and combat of 1 would be pretty much ambrosia for me.

    I might check this out but seriously? $400?! What were they thinking? The items you get with the $400 copy you can't get with the $150 copy is 3 additional 10 inch statues, a 30'' x 40" wallscroll and "a 2-inch heavyweight amulet with necklace". Must be some necklace to be worth $200. Or one hell of a wallscroll.

    I think they should have saved the 4 statue edition for the 4th game so it could be all 4 horsemen. Also wish they had an edition that had the Post DLC and the necklace for about 80~100 I'd be all over that. Just seems over ambitious just like Darksiders 2 was with its marketing and DLC and that really hurt THQ. I really hope the game does well cause I'd really like for the story to come to a proper conclusion.

    I don't understand why the overpriced editions with the statues aren't including the 2 post laugh DLCs the digital editions are.I find the tactics being employed for this game are horrible, the digital editions are being marketed as a % off if you preorder now but I guess will go up $10 after release. Also 24H early access

    Any word on the figures being made available separately? I'd sure get War if so.

    Assuming they make it to game 4, that'd make sense, but even for this game, there's no reason to not include the last one -- it's not like the design of all 4 wasn't done/revealed years ago..

    I really wonder if they will make it to Darksiders 5 and get to do the 4 player coop game they wanted to do from the beginning.

    Idk like everything they've shown makes the combat seem a little sluggish and the whip play not to exciting. Bayonetta 2 and God of war had really nice whip play/chain weapon play. How she dodges and stuff makes me remember PN-03 completely entirely unnecessary and sluggish.

    THQ Nordic and Gunfire Games today unveiled Force Fury, the Force hollow form of Darksiders III protagonist and third horsemen of the Apocalypse Fury! Fury’s form evolves throughout the game and with it, her powers and weaponry. Her so called Hollows are powers bestowed upon her by the Hollow Lord to help her lead the Horsemen and defeat the Seven Deadly Sins. Once she unlocked them, Fury can switch between her four Hollows at will, to adapt to her enemies and environment.
