Darksiders 2 will take place concurrently with the story of the first game, with players taking control of a new protagonist, THQ core games VP Danny Bilson told an audience at the IGDA Leadership Forum.
“When we do the Darksiders sequel, it’ll be a different character and take place simultaneously to the other story,” Bilson said. “There’s only one apocalypse – I couldn’t very well have four different apocalypses, one for each rider. It has some new mechanics and some very robust features that differentiate it a lot and grow it from the first game because you have to build on the first one, you can’t repeat it. I think that’s very important in franchise-building.”
Darksiders was released in January 2010. A PC version was released at a later date. THQ recently confirmed that the sequel is still years away from release.
