Vigil Games have said many nice things about the Wii U, which suggests they’d work with the platform again if given the chance. That chance could come in the form of Darksiders 3. It’s probably too early to think about a sequel, but this is what the lead designer of the game said on the matter:
If Jason’s [Rubin, President, THQ] sat there and we go and sell 4 or 5 million units, I’m pretty sure he won’t say, ‘Let’s go and do something different now’. Maybe what he might do is turn around and say, ‘We’ll do another Darksiders game, but we’ll try and reduce the scope so that we can make it even higher polished’. Because our scope is huge. Maybe he says, ‘Bring the scope down a little bit, we’ll still do another game but it’s a lot more focused’. That’s not such a bad thing to do either.
“Something different” is always nice, too, but I’m all for smaller-scope-but-highly-polished games. I’ll reserve total judgment on whether this would be a good idea when I play the game on the Wii U though.
