The Darkness 2 (PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360) is the sequel to the million copy-selling 2007 videogame, developed by Digital Extremes and based on the supernatural horror comic book series created by Top Cow Productions. "The Darkness II is a well of dark and imaginative violence, and it's a stylized and beautiful nightmare," said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K Games. "The Darkness II continues the 2K Games tradition of delivering quality, innovative games that are filled to the brim with atmosphere and deep storytelling. The game takes a unique stance on fighting in the dark versus light. Combined with the arsenal of weapons at Jackie's disposal and the gruesome attacks of the supernatural Demon Arms and Darkness powers, we're proud to announce another title that delivers on our core values of creating games for gamers." "Sometimes that whooshing sound you hear is that of comic fans holding their collective breath," adds Marc Silvestri, founder and CEO of Top Cow Productions and co-creator of The Darkness comics. "So often disappointed when a favorite character gives birth to a lame movie or video game, us fans have come to expect the worst. And sometimes we get it. But not with The Darkness II. Yeah, call me biased, but this second installment of Jackie Estacado's epic saga is - in my humble opinion - one of the most brutally cool games I've ever played. 2K Games hammered this one out of the park." www.embracethedarkness.com
Features:
* The Darkness 2 takes players down a brutal and personal path as Jackie Estacado, wielder of The Darkness - an ancient and ruthless force of chaos and destruction
* It's been two years since Jackie Estacado, now the Don of the Franchetti crime family, used The Darkness to kill the men responsible for his girlfriend's murder. He's been unable to shake the memory of Jenny's death since bottling up his supernatural power, and now The Darkness wants out. A sudden, unprovoked attack on Jackie's life heralds the start of a full-scale mob war, which has clearly been orchestrated by some outside force. The botched attempt opens the door for The Darkness to reemerge, and sets Jackie on a journey to hell and worse, as he unravels the mystery behind the attack and the motivations of The Darkness itself
* The Darkness 2 breaks out of the sea of conventional firstperson shooters with its fervid Quad-Wielding gameplay, which will allow players to slash, grab and throw objects and enemies with their Demon Arms while simultaneously firing two weapons
* The game is layered with the use of dark versus light, steeped in deep and twisted storytelling, and engulfed in stylistic violence that is visualized through a hand-painted graphic noir technique that stays true to its comic book origins
* The Darkness 2 will feature award-winning comic book writer, Paul Jenkins, who will provide a tightly integrated narrative that weaves dark humor with hardcore tenderness
* Singer, songwriter and voice actor, Mike Patton, will reprise his role as The Darkness in The Darkness 2. The avant-garde rock artist, known as the front man of Faith No More, Mr. Bungle and Peeping Tom, lends his unique voice acting talents as The Darkness - a supernatural force of chaos and destruction. "It feels really good to be the bad guy, and The Darkness is as bad as it gets," says Mike Patton. "I've read through the script and Jackie is going to be a brutally tortured soul. I'm looking forward to making his life a living hell."
* Digital Extremes is best known for its co-creation of the award-winning and multi-million copy selling franchise, Epic Games' Unreal, and its work on 2K Games' BioShock franchise as well as its own original title, Dark Sector for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360
* The Darkness 2 will be coming in February 2012
