2K Games today released a new video for The Darkness II, the sequel to The Darkness in the works at Digital Extremes and based on the supernatural horror comic book series created by Top Cow Productions. The Darkness II takes players down a brutal and personal path as Jackie Estacado, wielder of The Darkness – an ancient and ruthless force of chaos and destruction. Its Quad-Wielding gameplay will allow players to slash, grab, and throw objects and enemies with their Demon Arms while simultaneously firing two weapons. The game is layered with the use of dark versus light, steeped in deep and twisted storytelling, and engulfed in stylistic violence that is visualized through a hand-painted graphic noir technique that stays true to its comic book origins. The Darkness II will be available on February 7, 2012 in North America and February 10, 2012 internationally, for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.
