Recommended system specifications include:

Operating System: Windows 7
Processor: A Quad-Core device either from Intel or from AMD
RAM: 2 GB
Hard Drive: 20 GB of space free with 10 GB free after install
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 512 MB or the equivalent from AMD
An online Steam account


The hardware specs for Darksiders II are very accessible for a modern PC gamer, although the hard drive space might prove a challenge for those who maintain extensive local libraries.

Darksiders II can also be played on the PlayStation 3 from Sony or on the Xbox 360 from Microsoft when it is launched on August 14.

THQ has also stated that it has a version of the game in development for the Nintendo Wii U console, which will be offered when the new platform is finally out.

The game allows players to take on the role of Death, the brother of War, who finds out about the actions of his fellow Horseman and begins his own quest to exonerate him.

The gameplay in Darksiders II will be more oriented towards agile platforming and nimble combat moves, but the trademark puzzles of the series will also be included.

I love the comment "the trademark puzzles of the series will also be included". There has been literally one other game in the "series"!
