Nordic looking for “the best creative team” to work on Darksiders 3

Nordic Games owner and CEO Lars Wingefors has said Darksiders 3 will be developed by a studio that knows what to do with the franchise, and the team chosen will be “the best creative team” it can find.

Actually, Crytek hired some of the Vigil Games crew for their new US based studio.

You know... the former developers of Darksiders and Darksiders 2?

Wikipedia - Vigil Games
//On January 28, 2013, Crytek started a new studio called Crytek USA in Austin, Texas consisting of the 35 former Vigil Games employees.[4]//

Just get Joe Madureira in on the project, please.

P* ... sorry had to say it :) lol

According to some elitist snobs that visit this site, Nordic shouldn't even bother as they are just a "C Tier Publisher" and the franchise is "better off dead."

Honestly, some people. To think there are people who'd rather see an unfinished saga put to death just because they don't like the publisher rather than accept the fact that all it takes is one great game to make "C Tier" into "Top Tier."

I have also read a few of those snobby remarks. Everyone's a critic. I've said this before and I'll say it again; I hope Nordic grabs the reins of this horse and rides it out of the ashes of the apocalypse and into a victory for gamers and fans of the intellectual property.

DragonKnight4018d ago

It looks like Nordic wants someone who can do justice to the franchise to develop Darksiders 3. Just because they published some poor PC games is no reason to count them out so easily. They apparently published Alan Wake in Europe and many consider that to be a good game. I think that some gamers have too much of a sense of entitlement that really has no place in issues like this.

BlaqMagiq244018d ago

Agreed. Take Rocksteady for example. Before they did the Batman Arkham games they came out with one game called Urban Chaos which most people didn't really care about. Then here comes Arkham Asylum and then Arkham City and now they've put themselves on the map. People need to give them a chance instead of judging a company based on it's past.

Give it to Miyamoto. No, Level 5. Or..... Peter Molyneux!

i disagree. i think this game is fun, you obviously dont understand motocross, or just cant grasp the controls...

Blue_stripes2810d ago

I'm new to the sport yes, something that I don't hide, but controls aren't the only issue I had with it, which I go into detail about.

cheeko2808d ago

well each to their own then

They confirmed Darksiders 3 years ago. Well in as much as they've said they wanted to make it. Then hired as much of the original talent as possible. founded a studio in america to house them all and then re-released the previous 2 games in the series to help fund it. I mean, how much more evidence do you want?

thatguyhayat2811d ago

Exactly not a lot of people know this. When they bought the feanchise they said theyd carry it on and said War story wasnt over

LucasRuinedChildhood2811d ago

This is pretty cool having the THQ name back out there, albeit, in a faint capacity.

blackblades2811d ago

They need to fix ps3 darksiders 2 online trophy so people can actually platinum the game. Morons put a online trophy in a single player game.

That Darksiders 3, probably going to happen next year

Alexious2812d ago

Personally can't wait for Red Faction, that setting has a lot of potential!

Resis7ance2812d ago

Agreed. Loved the original Volition game on PS2.

DeadlyFire2812d ago

Sooooo much so. Its ashame its collecting dust. I Loved RF 1 and played RF2 multiplayer with bots for awhile when I had no internet in those PS2 days. It was alright.

Majin-vegeta2812d ago

DS3&Destroy All Humans get on it chop chop.

Kalebninja2812d ago

So at least 7 will be THQ games so De Blob, Red Faction, Darksiders, Stuntman, Full Spectrum Warrior, Destroy All Humans, and Titan Quest. Sounds like a killer lineup to me.

Alexious2812d ago

Yeah, though we shouldn't expect AAA budget for all of them. Nordic Games isn't that wealthy.

quent2812d ago

Wish they would fund Stalker 2.

Alexious2812d ago

I don't know if they have that one, though

AnotherProGamer2811d ago

GSC World still own it and they will probably make STALKER 2 after they are done with Cossacks 3

Dangerous2812d ago

Hope for phoenix and the cursed mummy sequel.
