Honestly this looks good for what it tries to be and should not be compared to Darksiders 1-3, it's more of an spinoff while waiting for a new installment but a welcome one imo in fact it looks more fun than DS3.

Now, it just needs Horseman Gonads to go with Strife... in the lightning, in the rain!

Strife's game is next. Strife uses guns.

So, expect a 3rd person shooter, probably something like Vanquish, if they want to keep its action-game roots.

Or maybe Gunfire will go all gun-kata and make a Bayonetta clone.

Then again, Gunfire Games just released a 3rd person souls-like shooter Remnant: From the ashes. So maybe Strife will play something like that.

Basically, any kind of shooter is good as long as it's not a cover shooter full of chest-high walls.

Thank you! Well, okay... I love shooters. But i hate dark souls...

Yes. At least Torchlight was great. Hope, that this will be similar, albeit some differences.

From what i have seen expect more of a Gauntlet style games than an outright Diablo clone.

Cutscene still looks a bit like DS - gamplay does not. Instantly wishlisted it when I saw a new DS but now I am not even sure if I keep it wishlisted.

Thanks - I hadn't heard of it.

But... Why didn't GOG get it?

Looks like "Perfect World Entertainment" publishes the game on Steam. They seem to publish mostly online games. Maybe they don't like GOG or don't consider a GOG release to be worth the effort?

Hoping GOG didn't foolishly reject it - the Steam reviews are positive overall, and competent Souls-likes are instabuys for me.

I don't find the source but they've been asked several times if they'd release the game on GOG and at first they were very vague, then they said they're not planning on doing so.

Finally confirmed. Thanks GOG.

There is a lot of confusion here...

First, it is NOT a Diablo clone. Isometric != Diablo clone. For all intents and purposes, it will play just like Darksiders, only from a top-down perspective. This will not be a random loot grindfest (luckily) unlike DS2.

Second, the story will be a prequel. Pretty much no connection with the events of the first 3 games whatsoever.

This is done by some of the people who did the original DS1 and will be the first game to feature Strife as playable. It is NOT DS4 however. Strife is still going to receive his fully fledged game some time later.

All I'm hoping for is that there will actually be some meat to the game because it is currently giveing me more of a Switch or Mobile game vibes than a PC game vibes.

Had a ton of fun with DS1 and DS3, not so much with DS2 (the worst one for me so far). Hopefully this is gonna be good too.

Here's hoping they get to complete the story.

Oh, thanks! That seems even more interesting :)

Keep on hoping since this should take place before the events of the original game according to the description.

I'm well aware of that. Let's hope then this new game does better than the third to allow a fourth game to be made.

GIven THQN recently acquired Gunfire games (the ex-Vigil folks who made Darksiders III), I'm preeety sure the 4th game is happening.

Genesis is just a spin-off, made by a different team, that includes other ex-Vigil folks and Joe Mad himself, the creative director and the creator of the original 2 games. Airship Syndicate previously released BattleChasers: NightWar - a game that shares a similar art style.
