Crytek has no Interest in Continuing Darksiders Franchise

Almost all of THQ's properties and development studios were sold off to various publishers after THQ closed down last month. However, Vigil Games, the studio behind the Darksiders franchise, was unable to find a buyer, and the developer was shut down.

After many of Vigil's former staff was picked up by Crytek, many assumed that the team would be continuing the franchise with Darksiders III. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be the case, as Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli has confirmed that there will be no Darksiders at Crytek.
