Darksiders II release date confirmed, pre-order incentives unveiled

As if you weren't excited to face Death already, THQ has confirmed the release date for their upcoming title, Darksiders II. The game is slated for a June 26 release, and will feature eerie graphics, immersive gameplay, and much more.

In addition, the publisher listed several pre-order bonuses that will have you riding in style when the sequel hits. These retailer-specific bonuses are listed below:

Gamestop: ‘Death Rides’ Pack-Features multiple exclusive side-quests allowing players to explore more of the Maker’s Realm and Dead Plains. In addition players will be able to aid an ancient Construct, battle The Bloodless and retrieve Karn’s lost treasure.

Best Buy: ‘Angel of Death’ Pack-Features enhanced armor with an angel inspired design as well as a pair of matching scythes. In addition players will receive an exclusive purple colored visual trail for their crow.

Amazon: ‘Deadly Despair’ Pack-Features an additional speed boost for Death’s horse Despair, that allows players to traverse the world at a much faster rate.

If you're a fan of the series, Best Buy's incentive seems to be the, pun intended, best deal by far. Nevertheless, GameStop and Amazon are offering some unique packs. Which retailer will you be pre-ordering from? Let us know by commenting below, or prepare to be consumed by Death (okay, kidding).
