The Darkness II
The Darkness II Video Review
The Darkness II is set two years after Jackie Estacado used the Darkness to kill the men responsible for his girlfriend's murder. Jackie has done his best to bottle up his supernatural powers, but the Darkness wants out. Suddenly, an unprovoked attack is made on Jackie's life, which starts a full-scale mob war. The botched attempt to take his life opens the door for the Darkness to reemerge and sets Jackie on a journey to hell and worse as he tries to unravel the mystery behind the attack on him. You will be able to slash, grab, and throw objects and enemies with the four Demon Arms of the Darkness, while simultaneously firing weapons. Harness the power and solve the mystery behind the attack and motivations of the Darkness itself. You will experience a dark, twisted, and gripping story written exclusively for the game by acclaimed comic book author Paul Jenkins, whose credits also include The Incredible Hulk, Wolverine, and the original Darkness game.
