However, this power came at a tragic cost: the Horsemen were ordered to use their newfound strength to wipe out the rest of their kind. Carrying out their orders are THE HORSEMEN, Nephilim (powerful beings spawned from the unnatural union of angels and demons) who have pledged themselves to the Council and been granted immense power.

Also in handheld mode (where I play the most) the dynamic resolution can be pretty varied often dropping from its 720p target to maintain that locked 30fps.From the dawn of creation, THE COUNCIL has maintained the Balance across existence. A lot of the environments are made up of low resolution and muddy textures that don’t look good, whilst some of the darker sections just look rather odd at times. However, to get the game running on the weaker hardware some cutbacks had to be made. It may not be perfect, but I am very happy with the results. It would have been great to see the developers push for 60fps, but the solid locked 30fps still plays well in handheld mode.
Thankfully, the Switch version managed to maintain a respectable framerate throughout my time with the game. It’s perfectly balanced to give hardcore grindy players something to shoot for, whilst not getting in the way of people just wanting to progress through the lengthy campaign that spans over sixteen varied chapters.
It’s a system that isn’t explained too well in-game and is rather simple, but still incredibly addictive. In turn, this will make the brothers more powerful allowing you to take on tougher enemies and higher difficulties. As you kill enemies, you gain cores that you can use to slot into your skill trees. Whilst all that is great, arguably one of the better parts of Darksiders Genesis is how the progression works. Switch’s dynamic resolution can hurt a little bit. We have a new mission structure, a better mix of open and linear areas, and co-operative play (or character switching for solo players). But it makes enough changes to the formula to give it its own distinctive feel. It’s still a dungeon crawling hack ‘n slash that combines fast paced melee combat, puzzle solving, epic boss fights, and exploring large areas.

Like I said in my full PC review, the new switch to the isometric camera angle might seem like a big change at first, but it keeps the spirit of Darksiders intact. Their interactions with each other can be amusing as their personalities conflict, whilst other times they will be reflecting on the Nephelim war, a major event for these characters. Strife is your cocky and confident gunslinger, whilst War is your straight edged get the mission done type of guy. It’s your standard Darksiders affair with demons to slaughter and conspiracies to uncover, but for the first time we have two Horsemen interacting with each other throughout. We join War and Strife on their very first mission to put a stop to Lucifer’s plans.
Just when the Horsemen were first starting out and gaining the Charred Councils favour. Set way before the events of the first game, Genesis goes all the way back to the start, like the name suggests. All the Darksiders ingredients are present.
