After confirmation that Darksiders is “definitely NOT dead” you may be wondering what the future holds for the franchise after it was picked up last year by Nordic Games following THQ’s collapse. Nordic Games has reportedly entered discussions with former members of Vigil Games, the series’ former developer, about the possibility of making a third Darksiders title, but there is no word on how or when the game may come to fruition.
A representative for Nordic Games told Rock Paper Shotgun the following:
With regards to Darksiders 3: of course we’ve always been busy in the background, talking to a lot of former team members about a continuation of the series, but we are not ready to announce anything officially. Joe Madureira is spot on in saying that DS is not dead and we are committed, though.
Before we can say something about the ‘how’ and ‘when’ of publishing/financing the sequel is concerned, we are still busy in properly figuring out the ‘who’ part of this large-scale project. All I can say is that we can and will not settle for second-best solutions in the case of Darksiders.
What are your thoughts on the possibility of another Darksiders game? Let us know in the comments below.
