Darksiders 2 release date revealed and pre order bonuses

THQ had announced a June release window for Darksiders 2. Now, it's revealed a specific date: June 26th for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC.

As expected, Darksiders 2 will have a variety of retailer-exclusive pre-order bonuses. GameStop, for example, will offer the "Death Rides" pack, which features multiple "exclusive" side-quests across the Maker's Realm and Dead Plains adding up to two hours of gameplay content.

Best Buy will offer the "Angel of Death" pack, which will give you enhanced armor with an angel-inspired design. You'll also get a pair of matching scythes and an outfit for your companion crow, Dust.

Amazon will offer the "Deadly Despair" pack which adds a speed boost for Despair, Death's horse. This is a permanent increase, meaning you'll be able to play through the game quicker than others.
