Darksiders Genesis features the debut of the fourth and final horsemen – STRIFE – who can battle alongside his brother and fellow horsemen WAR in the first ever Darksiders two-player co-op mode. Solo players will be able to alternate between STRIFE and WAR on the fly, taking advantage of STRIFE’s ranged and WAR’s melee style attacks. Both characters can build up a special attack meter that, when activated, temporarily turns them into a colossal creature that leaves epic destruction in its wake.

Darksiders Genesis is currently in development for PC, Google Stadia and all current-gen console platforms. The PC and Google Stadia versions of Darksiders Genesis will release on December 5, 2019. The console versions will release on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2020.

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. More on Darksiders III here http://darksiders.com

New Feature : Force saved data import
This allows more control over importing saved data from the original
game into Darksiders Warmastered Edition saved data.

Instructions for Force saved data import
1. Open the file %appdata%\kaiko\darksiders1\config.ini
2. Add the line 'force_save_data_import=true' to the [game] section.

When starting the game it should now always ask you whether or not
to import saved data, given it finds original saved data. Please note
that all slots that your original save contains will get overwritten in
the WME savedata. You can remove unwanted slots from the original saved
data before importing, these are files either in
%userprofile%\Documents\My Games\Darksiders or
%userprofile%\Documents\My Games\Darksiders\[YourSteamID].

Please backup your darksiders1 WME saved data before force
importing, but make sure you store your backup outside of the steam
cloud folder, otherwise the game can't save any more.


We are looking forward for your feedback!
