In 2010, Darksiders brought players to the brink of the apocalypse, combining mythic storytelling, brutal combat, and striking comic book artistry. In this episode, we explore how Joe Madureira, David Adams, and a small team at Vigil Games built their dream project from scratch—starting with four developers, a cracked monitor, and a pitch at E3. We discuss the challenges of their partnership with THQ, the lessons learned during production, and how their persistence gave rise to one of the most distinctive action-adventure franchises of its era. Our conversation also follows the studio’s evolution through bankruptcy, rebirth, and new studios like Gunfire Games and Airship Syndicate. Join us as we ride into the apocalypse with Darksiders on today’s trip down Memory Card Lane.
