7. Darksiders 3

Darksiders III Gameplay

THQNordic’s new Darksiders game looks really promising. Picking up where Darksiders 2 left off, we play as another of the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

This time playing as Fury, the female Rider whose main weapon is a whip and she’s ready to use it. Fury is out to hunt down and destroy the Seven Deadly Sins of Earth.

Each Sin has its own unique level design and fight patterns adding to the stages. On top of the action fighting is platforming and puzzles to further progress in the story. For anyone who hasn’t played Darksiders yet, think Mega Man meets Prototype.

This is one of the most promising on the entire list. Pick up the first two games on Steam to either hold you over or refresh you before playing part III.

When a problem comes a long, you must whip it. Whip it good.

When you are the first ones to the party and the awkward silence kicks in.
