In the beginning, a magnificent kingdom was created for the angels, a dark realm was created for the demons and a world was built for mankind. When one of the legendary Four Horsemen destroyed the Earth before its appointed time, he was sentenced to be destroyed. After being awakened by the end of days, Death embarks on an epic quest to undo Armageddon, and instead discovers that Creation is facing a far worse fate. Darksiders II thrusts you into a world balancing on the brink of destruction. Become Death himself, the most feared of the Four Horsemen, and take on the forces of the cosmos as you struggle to reverse the earthly Apocalypse. This epic universe is presented in the unique style of Joe Mad, immersing you into the open world like never before. Unleash deadly moves and killer agility tricks such as wall-running, ghost-handing, wall-jumping and more as you embark on dangerous side quests. Explore netherworld environments, such as the angelic White City and The Eternal Throne floating fortress, where the Lords of the Dead stand guard over souls that need to be cleansed. Utilize Death's huge, iconic scythe in battle, or gather a wide range of other weapons and usable items to dual-wield as you fight enemies. Become immersed in the worlds with an improved graphic render engine that delivers higher visual quality, lighting and shadows and runs at 1080p resolution. As the universe teeters on the edge of destruction, it's up to you to wield the power to battle forces beyond Heaven and Hell — and uncover an ancient grudge that may run deep enough to destroy them both.
