Darksiders 2 Announce New Modes

THQ have announced that after the completion of the main campaign, there will be new modes available. Arena Survival Mode sees players take on waves of five enemies in succession. After every fifth wave you then have the option to take your reward and be on your way, or you can take a shot at the next set of waves to acquire an even greater reward. Of course, there has to be a catch. If you lose, you will then leave with nothing at all.

That isn’t all, Darksiders 2 brings another mode titled New Game+ which means that players can now use their own version of Death in the campaign mode with all previous attributes and items already available. Not only can be this be used in the standard campaign but THQ’s VP Global Brand Marketing Jim Huntley has stated that “this upgraded and customised character can then be carried over into the upcoming DLC campaign missions.”

Darksiders 2 will arrive for the Xbox 360, Ps3, Microsoft Windows on the 14th of August. This also includes a scheduled release on the Wii U.
