THQ Nordic's Darksiders games are some of the most criminally underrated titles around. Darksiders is a series of games that revolves around four immensely powerful siblings, known as the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, that essentially act as peacekeepers between the forces of Heaven and Hell.
Each installment released so far has revolved around one particular horseman. However, what makes these games so unique and divisive is how THQ has handled every game.
For the first Darksiders game, players took control of the rage-fueled War in a Zelda-like game. Meanwhile, in Darksiders 2, the story revolved around the story of the cold and calculating Death in an open-world RPG.
The third game, Darksiders 3, put players in the shoes of the enigmatic Fury in a game that closely resembled the Soulsborne titles in gameplay. Finally, the fourth title, Darksiders: Genesis, was an isometric ARPG that was all about the impatient and trigger-happy gunslinger, Strife.
Now that THQ Nordic has officially introduced the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, fans have been begging the publisher to work on a true sequel. You see, the events of the Darksiders games don't line up one after another. The first game is technically set in the present while the rest are all prequels.
