New Darksiders: Wrath of War Media Arrives

Publisher THQ passed in new screenshots and concept art from Vigil Games' apocalyptic action title Darksiders: Wrath of War (PS3, 360), offering a look at the title's combat and a few of its enemies.

Darksiders puts players in the boots of War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The game's distinct art style comes courtesy of Vigil Games' creative director and co-founder Joe Madureira, who previously worked as a penciller on several Marvel comic books including the X-Men.

A new developer diary video detailing the game's art direction and some in-game footage is viewable below.
