You can either play single-player and swap between the two characters or pick one each in co-op. A few light puzzles and platforming sections are thrown in the mix, along with level objectives that reward you with extra currency and items.

Levels are fairly linear romps through waves of demonic enemies, with a handful of side paths to explore and find secrets within. Genesis is split into stages with a hub world to return to in-between to buy upgrades. At the very least, the banter between class clown Strife and righteous jobsworth War is entertaining throughout. It’s a largely forgettable story, the gist of which is that you’re compelled to lark around different areas of Hell killing baddies and restoring the balance. You’ve been tasked with looking into what Lucifer’s been up to – which, to nobody’s surprise, is no good.

You play as Strife and War, two of the four Horsemen, working for the omnipotent Council. Genesis takes place before the events of the previous Darksiders’. Following its original PC launch, it now arrives on consoles in a competent port.

But Darksiders Genesis still manages to keep its DNA reasonably intact in the transition. For Darksiders, a trilogy of open-world action-adventure games, to switch to a comparatively linear, top-down action-RPG is quite a shift.
