Darksiders Genesis is a top-down action RPG starring Strife, the fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse, tasked with stopping Lucifer's plot to destroy humanity. You'll hack through demons and angels as one of the Nephilim—hybrids born from forbidden angel-demon unions who now serve the Council that ordered them to slaughter their own kind. Combat mixes melee strikes with ranged gunplay. Expect environmental puzzles, multi-phase boss fights, and serpent holes that warp you between Heaven and Hell. The isometric camera is a series first, trading the usual third-person view for a wider battlefield perspective. Loot drops upgrade your abilities through a skill tree. If you want myth-heavy hack-and-slash with puzzle breaks and don't mind a camera shift from prior entries, this delivers that loop in roughly 15 hours.
