Darksiders II pre-order bonus

THQ has just revealed some nice bonus items will be given to those who pre-order the Limited Edition of {Darksiders II}.

The game is due out on August 24, and those who stump up their cash early will get access to an exclusive set of in-game armour (Maker's Armor and Scythe set) and free shipping. More excitingly, pre-orders will also get two downloadable content drops.

All pre-orders from the THQ store will be upgraded to the Limited Edition, which will come with the first content drop, Argul's Tomb, included. DLC packs 2 and 3 will be available at a later date.

A visit over to shop.THQ.com will also reveal the Collector's Edition, which includes all of the above, plus "a life-sized replica Death Mask with display stand, a unique  Shadow of Death armor and scythe set with enhanced stats, a digital copy of the {Darksiders II} sound-track and a hard-cover {Darksiders II} art book."

Head here for more details.

Jim Huntley, Vice President of Global Brand Marketing, commented:  "We are excited to be able to reward customers who pre-order the game via shopTHQ with this great incentive. Not only will they get a unique armor set at launch, but they will also get significant free content for months to come."
