Haven’t been keeping up with Darksiders III? Here’s what the game’s all about:

Return to an apocalyptic Earth in Darksiders III, a hack-n-slash Action Adventure where players assume the role of Fury in her quest to hunt down and dispose of the Seven Deadly Sins. The most unpredictable and enigmatic of the Four Horsemen, Fury must succeed where many have failed – to bring balance to the forces that now ravage Earth. Darksiders III is the long-anticipated, third chapter in the critically-acclaimed Darksiders franchise.

  • Play as Fury – A mage who must rely on her whip and magic to restore the balance between good and evil here on Earth!
  • Harness Fury’s magic to unleash her various forms – Each granting her access to new weapons, moves and traversal abilities.
  • Explore an open-ended, living, game world – Fury moves back and forth between environments to uncover secrets while advancing the story.
  • Defeat the Seven Deadly Sins – Take down these bosses and their servants who range from mystical creatures to degenerated beings.

Darksiders III unleashes its Fury on PC, Xbox One, and PS4 on November 27.
