Darksiders

The series is set on a post-apocalyptic Earth, where mankind faces near-extinction and angels fight a losing battle against the demon hordes for control over the world.

[2] The second installment in the franchise set parallel with the first game, Darksiders II was released in 2012 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Wii U, and Xbox 360, this time with the protagonist as Death, the second of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

An enhanced version, titled Darksiders II: The Deathinitive Edition, was released on October 27, 2015, for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and on November 5 for Microsoft Windows.

Again set parallel with the first two games, Fury is sent on a quest to recapture all of the escaped Seven Deadly Sins, but soon discovers that her mission is a snipe hunt engineered to remove her alongside all of mankind from interfering with a much wider web of intrigue perpetrated on all sides.

[3] A spin-off prequel of the main series, Darksiders Genesis is a top-down action game which follows the fourth and final horseman, Strife, who, alongside his brother War, is called upon to save mankind from certain destruction at the hands of Lucifer.

Players take control of one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, from a third-person perspective, each of which characters offer unique play styles and equipment.

All Darksiders games generally have similar gameplay, as featuring an open world for the players to explore and a variety of puzzles to solve.
