Game publisher THQ has pushed the release of the anticipated sequel to Darksiders until 2012 at least.

According to IGN, the publisher will bring out Darksiders 2 within its 2013 fiscal year that kicks off on 1 April 2012, which is a year later than originally expected. THQ previously indicated that the game would be released during its 2012 fiscal year (1 April 2011 until 31 March 2012).

“We want to release a key title in each quarter over the next two and a half years,” a THQ spokesperson said in a statement to IGN. “We have moved UFC Undisputed to Q4 of fiscal year 2012. That was the original target for Darksiders 2. Therefore, we decided to move Darksiders 2 to early fiscal year 2013.”

Recently it was revealed that THQ had snapped up former Assassin’s Creed and Prince of Persia creative director, Patrice Désilets, who will be joining the publisher next year as the head of a new development studio.
