The highlight of the THQ Nordic Digital Showcase 2025 is undoubtedly the announcement of Darksiders 4. Gunfire Games, known for its work on titles like Chronos: Before the Ashes and the Remnant games, is set to return to this beloved franchise. The studio was established by David Adams following the closure of Vigil Games, the original developers of the first two Darksiders games.
The last installment, released in 2018, received a mixed reception, while the 2019 spin-off, Darksiders Genesis, which was developed by Airship Syndicate, saw a more favorable response. This spin-off also introduced the final horseman of the apocalypse, Strife, joining the ranks of War, Death, and Fury from previous games.
During last year’s showcase, Gunfire and THQ Nordic hinted at a new entry in the Darksiders series. Now, with the release of a teaser trailer, fans are excited to see that all Four Horsemen will unite for the first time in the franchise.
Although details are still scarce, the anticipation surrounding this new installment is palpable. Are you ready to witness the climax of the Eternal War between Heaven and Hell? Share your thoughts in the comments!
This announcement is a promising development for fans of the franchise, signaling a fresh direction and potential for an epic conclusion to the series.
