Darksiders II: Pushed Back Into the Summer

Looks like Death will have to wait! The sequel for the relativity acclaimed post apocalyptic platformer Darksiders, will unfortunately not be on stores shelves as early as we would have hoped. The sequel, dubbed Darksiders 2 is being produced by THQ and was set for a mid June release but news from studio today suggests we won't be playing the game until August.

The developers released the news today in a blog post found on the Darksiders site here.  They make assurance that nothing will be cut and that the pushback is just to add, "polish" to the game.  The original Darksiders allowed players to control War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse as he returned to a shattered demon-filled earth after being blamed for dooming the universe.

In Darksiders 2 War's brother, Death, is convinced of War's innocence and heads to earth to bring him back. Darksiders 2 will be available on Xboxb 360, Ps3 and PC.
