Darksiders II Mini Review

In Darksiders II, you take control of Death, one of the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse, in his adventure to prove War's innocence in an early start on the end of the world.  

Similar to the first Darksiders, released in 2010, the gameplay of  II is mainly hack and slash action game with a tad bit of role-playing thrown into the mix. What this gives us is a satisfying mixture of fun and enjoyment, Along the way you have to use platforming elements and a bit of puzzle solving to progress in the story. Though this isn't all you can do in the world given to you. There are a heap of side quests and enemies to kill in this large, open world. Through killing enemies, you gain experience which you can then use to upgrades various aspects of your character. 
With this XP you can make yourself better in combat, make yourself faster, or give yourself more health and upgrade your weapons.And through all of this you are taken through amazing boss battles that come on par with God of War and Dante's Inferno. Combine those with a memorable story and you have a game you'll talking about for months to come.

All in all, Darksiders II is a great game if you just want to kick back and fight the forces of hell one limb at a time. It's a game that you won't be disappointed with. So pick up your scythes and have a blast. Photos courtesy of Google, all rights reserved to THQ.
