Darksiders III: Apocalypse Edition

2018
Role-playing (RPG)Hack and slash/Beat 'em upAdventure

Fantasy · Open World · Post-Apocalyptic

Darksiders III doubled down on the Souls-inspired combat introduced in the series' second entry, trading open-world exploration for a more focused, interconnected level design. Fury, the protagonist, wields a whip and various elemental weapons, each altering her movement and attack patterns. The game's emphasis on precise dodging, strategic resource management, and punishing bosses makes it a challenging but rewarding action RPG that, despite its flaws, offers a unique take on the genre.

About Darksiders III: Apocalypse Edition

Details
Return to an apocalyptic planet Earth in Darksiders III, a hack-n-slash action adventure where players take on the role of FURY in her quest to hunt down and dispose of the Seven Deadly Sins. The Charred Council calls upon Fury to battle from the heights of heaven down through the depths of hell in a quest to restore humanity and prove that she is the most powerful of the Horsemen. As a mage, FURY relies on her whip and magic to restore the balance between good and evil. The expansive, Darksiders III game world is presented as an open-ended, living, free-form planet Earth that is dilapidated by war and decay, and overrun by nature. FURY will move back and forth between environments to uncover secrets while advancing the Darksiders III story.
