Darksiders 4 to be Announced on E3 2019
Thanks to the E3 2019 event plan, we learned that we will see the announcement of the fourth installment of the Darksiders series. A on the franchise will take place on the evening of June 13.
A Darksiders series will be announced at the fair and it will "lead the franchise in a new direction". The dedicated to the series will be held on June 13 at 10:30 AM.
A discussion about the inception of the Darksiders universe and where it’s headed next. This will coincide with the E3 2019 unveil of a brand new Darksiders game that takes the franchise in a fresh direction. This is a discussion about the art and business of creating and maintaining an action adventure franchise rich in-game and corporate lore, we read.
The rights to this series are currently in the hands of THQ Nordic, which, as we know, has sold quite well. A continuation was therefore only a matter of time, but such an early announcement is a surprise.
The natural protagonist of the next part of the cycle would be the last of the riders, known as Strife. Interestingly, before the collapse of the original THQ (its assets were subsequently acquired by Nordic Games, which renamed to THQ Nordic) and the dissolution of Vigil Games (the studio behind the first two installments of Darksiders) there was already a game planned for this character. It was supposed to be a title offering... co-op mode. Who knows, maybe the publisher is planning to return to this idea? It would certainly be something new for the franchise
