Darksiders II Teases You with Giant Text and Piano Music

Death does have a flare for the dramatic.

There used to be an embeded media player here, but it doesn't work anymore. We blame the Tumbeasts.

 
This weekend’s Spike VGAs had a number of trailers, but none had such an enormous amount of text as the upcoming Darksiders II. While the game still has a ways to go before it sees the light of day, developer Vigil Games is already flashing a little bit of marketing sizzle.
