TopCow Comics has accidently confirmed that Starbreeze studios is working on a sequel for The Darkness, which was released in June this year. An employee from TopCow has accidently revealed to Dutch rapper 'Lycan-Strife' that Starbreeze is working on The Darkness 2 in secret, for next-generation consoles.
The Dutch rapper 'Lycan-Strife' has a good connection with TopCow and the Dutch rapper even made a tribute rap for The Darkness. A TopCow Comics employee then tipped 'Lycan-Strife' with the news that Starbreeze is working on The Darkness 2. 'Lycan-Strife' then reported the news to Dutch website Xbox360Only.
The sequel will arrive sometime around late 2008/early 2009, and will continue directly where The Darkness ended. No official confirmation has been given yet, but it seems pretty likely it will happen.
Hunble Bundle is currently offering free copies of The Darkness 2 for the next 48 hours. The Darkness 2 is an intense first person shooter that – according to its description – delivers a twisted and gripping narrative of tragedy, modern crime drama, and supernatural horror.
This is why I don't buy video games anymore. I have a huge Steam backlog and developers are gracious enough to offer their products for free. Fortnite is free, Darkness is free, lots of good free games. Thanks Humble
The Darkness II has received some huge price cuts, the game is currently available at just $5.99 on Steam, 85% lower than its original price $39.99.
I had a blast with the 1st one. It was perfect. The 2nd not that much, was pretty forgettable tbh and the cell shading, although beautiful, was not my kind of tea
That said, if they make a 3rd one they should make it a bit closer to the original's...vibe and looks.
are we talking switch ports again or why is another lastGen game in the headlines?
I personally enjoyed this one more than first game (even though I think first one is good too)
Matt Ferguson from G4@Syfygames writes "When I think of tragic love stories and star-crossed lovers, I can't recall a more heart-wrenching example than Jackie Estacado and Jenny Romano from The Darkness. What begins as a romantic story between two people from very different worlds ends abruptly in a horrific tragedy, drawing many parallels from the works of Classical Greek tragedians and epic poets."
Still own a copy of both of them. The Darkness III on PS4/PC/XONE would be awesome.
The Darkness was a cool game.
Not fussed, the first one was awfull too play.
Had a great time with this game. I look forward to the second one.
Nice.
I think we all know a sequel was coming, but a dutch rapper is the news source?
