Trailer of the day: Darksiders II 'Death Eternal'

THQ has produced some nicely ominous teasers for its forthcoming Darksiders sequel, and here is the latest. In 'Death Eternal'. a montage of battle scenes and famous paintings is used to introduce the new lead charachter, Death, whose story runs alongside War's adventures in the original title.

We're expecting some more hacking and slashing, with a modified version of the first game's excellent weapons and character customisation system, lots of apocalyptic scenery and plenty of gigantic monster battles. For now, we can enjoy Death cropping up, Zelig-like, in works by Paul Nash, Francis Bacon and others.

Darksiders II is released on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 this summer.
