About This Game

Since the beginning of time, THE COUNCIL has upheld the Balance throughout existence. Executing their commands are THE HORSEMEN, Nephilim (mighty entities born from the forbidden union of angels and demons) who have sworn allegiance to the Council and received tremendous abilities. Yet, this power demanded a terrible price: the Horsemen were commanded to utilize their new might to exterminate the remainder of their race. A brutal conflict ensued at Eden, where the Horsemen, heeding the Council's decree, obliterated the Nephilim. Recovering from the aftermath of Eden, WAR and STRIFE have received a fresh mission -- LUCIFER, the mysterious and treacherous ruler of demons, has been conspiring to disrupt the Balance by bestowing authority upon master demons all over Hell. War and Strife must pursue these masters, collect intelligence, and finally battle through a complex, infernal scheme that endangers to permanently disturb the Balance and dismantle all of creation. DARKSIDERS: GENESIS is an action/adventure title that cuts through legions of demons, angels, and every entity in between on a journey from Hell to back, firing guns and swinging swords. Genesis presents players with their initial glimpse of the DARKSIDERS realm prior to the incidents of the original game. Additionally, it brings forth the fourth and final horseman, STRIFE, along with Co-op action for the first time in the series' history. Key attributes include: Unleash fury upon angels and demons as the gun-wielding Horseman Strife, making his debut appearance. Seamlessly alternate between the formidable sword-master War and Strife in chaotic, single-player action. Traverse the grand universe of Darksiders and cause destruction alongside a companion in two-player cooperative mode. Undertake a completely new narrative campaign set before the initial Darksiders, delving into the backstory of the Seven Seals. Enhance your strength and abilities by acquiring items, skills, weapon upgrades, creature cores, and other enhancements.
