Darksiders demo to launch on February 25th

THQ will release a demo of the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of Darksiders on February 25th.

The download will offer a taste of the game, a hack ‘n’ slash adventure set on a post-apocalyptic Earth, which debuted back in January to respectable sales. It will contain the entire first dungeon, the Twilight Cathedral.

We are really pumped to be bringing a playable demo for Darksiders to Xbox 360 and PS3,” said David Adams, general manager of the game’s developer Vigil Games.

We really wanted to give gamers a true idea of the variety of gameplay that the game offers and so rather than just making a standard 20-minute demo version of the first few levels, we decided to give away this massive level and reveal the true essence of the game.”
