Once again with feeling
Gunfire Games has earned a reputation as The Darksiders studio. It's a fair read on the situation. Vigil Games created the first two Darksiders titles before being resurrected as Gunfire Games (the THQ bankruptcy messed up quite a bit) and making up the third Darksiders. Although the upcoming prequel, Darksiders: Genesis, is being developed by Airship Syndicate, Gunfire is most definitely the guardians of the series.
That's why there's a peculiar place everyone thinks of when Gunfire mentions they're working on an unannounced game. This is what is happening right now. Gunfire is offering a combat designer position for a "high-end triple-A" game. It could be anything, but it could also be Darksiders 4.
All that to say that it's actually a bit unfair to assume that Gunfire has to work on more Darksiders. He has a lot more non-Darksiders games under his belt. Many are VR titles from that(ish) time of 2022 where everyone had a VR project. But its latest release, Remnant: From the Ashes from just a few months ago, is a new property with a heavy emphasis on combat.
Maybe this is all just an exercise in positive thinking and wishing to create something. If you can believe it, you can achieve it. Strife is the Last of the Horsemen, however, and they each have a certain harmony, each having their own game - especially since Genesis split the spotlight between Strife and War. Chris is already asking if you're up for Darksiders 5-9, the Rian Johnson years. I don't want to cause internal conflict, but pissed off, but let's put our pants on one leg at a time. Give us Darksiders 4.
