Darksiders’ Creators Want To Buy The Series Back
David Adams, the CEO of Crytek USA, has tweeted that he (or at least his company) is looking into buying the rights to the Darksiders series when it hits the auction block as part of the last sale of THQ properties. This would be a big deal, because Crytek USA is made up of refugees from Vigil, the former THQ studio that created the Darksiders series and developed both games.
The Makers Of Bayonetta Would Love To Buy The Suddenly-Endangered Darksiders Series
One of the sad and somewhat odd outcomes of today’s big auction of top games and studios from game publisher THQ is that no one — not EA, not Activision, not Take Two, not Bethesda, not Ubisoft… no one — made a bid for the action-game series Darksiders and Vigil, the studio that made those games.
Darksiders, WWE Still Looking For New Homes After THQ Sell-Off
News has broken out about the sale of THQ’s assets and it looks like many of the defunct publisher’s signature franchises have been acquired. But, surprisingly, some seemingly bankable properties haven’t been snatched up.
Developing Games For The Wii U? That’s A Cinch, Says Darksiders Dev
Until we’ve all had a play and seen the launch line-up, passing a definitive, conclusive and honest judgement of the Wii U is impossible.

And that opinion appears to show it’s great to make games for, at least in the eyes of Darksiders creators Vigil Games.
Darksiders II’s Janky PC Version Now Substantially Less Janky
Good news: true to their word, Vigil has issued the first update for the PC version of Darksiders II, addressing a number of problems players have had with that version of the game. Among the fixes: easier key-mapping, in-game crashes and the broken v-sync, which resulted in unfixable screen-tearing for some (but not all) players.
Vigil Promises Fixes For Janky PC Darksiders II In ‘The Weeks To Come’
Sad but true: The PC version of Darksiders II is bare-bones and has some serious graphical problems. Non-functional vertical-sync, strange controls, minimal options for graphical tweaking; it’s a drag.
The Art Of Darksiders II
You could, if Hong Kong gangsters weren’t your thing, call Darksiders II the biggest game release of the week. Probably the month, too.
Your Fate Does Not Concern Death In This Latest Darksiders II Trailer
Perhaps you’ve heard that Darksiders II will star Death. You hadn’t heard that? Well, it will! But sorry to say, he cares more about his brother War than he cares about you.
