Update: And just like that, an official announcement has arrived. IGN has shared an official trailer for the game, describing it as a "Diablo-style action-RPG spinoff". Check it out below.


Original Article: A listing on retail giant Amazon's website has seemingly leaked an upcoming Darksiders game for Nintendo Switch and other platforms. The game is set to be called Darksiders Genesis.

While it hasn't officially been announced just yet, the evidence for this one's existence is certainly stacking up; just last week, E3's official website spoke of a new Darksiders game that "takes the franchise in a fresh direction", and there have been murmurings that it could well be being developed by Battle Chasers: Nightwar studio, Airship Syndicate.

We've grabbed a screenshot of the Amazon listing for you below - which is still viewable here at the time of writing.

The listing also contains the following feature list and screenshots:

  • War and Strife have been given a new assignment
  • Lucifer has been plotting to grant power to master demons throughout Hell
  • War and Strife must hunt down these masters
  • Fight your way through a tangled, demonic conspiracy that threatens to forever upset the Balance and unravel all of creation

Naturally, we'd expect to hear more about this one over the course of E3. Just to be clear, the game has not been officially confirmed by publisher THQ Nordic just yet.
