Less then a month after releasing the game, 2K Games has now uploaded a demo version of The Darkness on Xbox Live Marketplace. Xbox 360 gamers can play three early levels in the game, including the Tunnel, Cemetery and Grinders Lane in the demo version of The Darkness. All these levels are single player.
Here is the overview of The Darkness:
- The Darkness is a next generation, first-person action game that features an immersive and gritty storyline written in collaboration with famed comic-book writer, Paul Jenkins (also of Civil War: Frontline). Set in the dark and sordid underbelly of New York City, gamers experience the role of mafia hitman Jackie Estacado, heir to “The Darkness,” an ancient power that awakens within him on his 21st birthday. Jackie must use traditional weapons as well as learn to command his terrible new powers to seek revenge on his own crime family.
The Darkness was released for the PS3 and the Xbox 360 on June 25, 2007. The game has been developed by Starbreeze Studios and is based on popular comic of the same name created by Marc Silvestri and Paul Jenkins and published by Top Cow Publishing.
