Darksiders II: The Abyssal Forge DLC Announced

The Abyssal Forge, a new piece of DLC for Darksiders II apparently geared towards “the most competent” players of the title, has been announced today. The DLC will be released on 30th October on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360, with the exception the European PS3 version, slated for an October 31st release, and will cost $9.99/800 Microsoft Points.

Here’s what the DLC apparently includes:

The Abyssal Forge is a living machine designed to harness the unfocussed dark power of the Abyss and create the most powerful legendary weapons. The Maker who built this abomination, known only as the Mad Smith, was shunned by his own people and sealed away in the Shadow Lands with his creation. However, the forge hasn’t remained dormant all those years of captivity; it has constructed a vast army and now threatens all creation.

The vast swamp-like Shadow Lands, added by this DLC is a new gameplay zone with an entirely new visual look, including two challenging new dungeons, new enemies to best, secrets to uncover and unique legendary loot to collect. Tailored towards the most competent Darksiders II players, the Abyssal Forge will test your mettle against the hardest enemies and puzzles yet.

Thanks, Game Informer.
