Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2.57/day in the week to Aug 8 → 3/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Крута кооперативна гра, цікаво спостерігати за взаємодією персонажів і бої не викликають нудьгу. Проблеми лише з дибільними умовами виконання "головоломки" і багами, які ускладнюють цю задачу, особливо з чакрамом Війни
When Darksiders Genesis was announced, I was incredibly excited because we were finally getting to see the last Horseman, Strife. That excitement faded a little when I realized it was going to be a co-op spin-off instead of the solo adventure I had been hoping for. While I enjoy War and he's every bit as badass as ever, I still feel Strife deserved his own standalone story. That said, Genesis does a lot of things right. The atmosphere is fantastic, and the soundtrack perfectly captures the dark, apocalyptic feel the series is known for. The story is enjoyable and fits well within the Darksiders universe, but it never really gives us the deeper look into Strife's personality and motivations that I was hoping for. He's charismatic and entertaining, yet there's clearly more beneath the surface that remains unexplored. The upgrade system is another highlight. Progression feels rewarding, and unlocking new abilities and enhancements has a meaningful impact on gameplay instead of feeling like minor stat increases. It encourages experimentation and makes both Horsemen more fun to play. My biggest disappointment, aside from the lack of a solo Strife story, is the visual presentation. While the art direction still feels like Darksiders, the graphics themselves seem like a step back compared to previous entries. The isometric perspective works well for gameplay, but the environments and overall visual fidelity don't have the same impact as the earlier games. Overall, Darksiders Genesis is a fun action game with great combat, an excellent soundtrack, and a solid progression system. Even though I enjoyed my time with it, I couldn't shake the feeling that Strife deserved more than sharing the spotlight. I still hope he'll eventually get the standalone game he's always deserved. Recommended. 8/10

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to balance the serious edgelord energy of War with the insufferable "Merc with a Mouth" wannabe vibes of Strife, look no further. Darksiders Genesis is essentially a top-down co-op therapy session set against the backdrop of the demon-slaying apocalypse. The gameplay shift to an isometric perspective makes it feel less like a grand Darksiders adventure and more like a prettier, slightly more action-oriented Diablo clone. You’ll spend hours grinding for "Creature Cores," a system designed to make you murder thousands of the same enemy types for minor stat boosts. It’s perfect for turning off your brain and embracing the mindless violence while listening to Strife’s endless, poorly-timed wisecracks. The story is a prequel that attempts to flesh out the lore, but ultimately highlights that the dreaded Horsemen are basically errand boys for the Charred Council, cleaning up messes they didn't even start. The real challenge, however, isn't the bosses—it's fighting the camera angles and wondering why War takes himself so damn seriously. Verdict: 8/10. Highly recommended for ruining friendships in co-op mode as you argue over who gets to play Strife and not actually try in combat.
