2K Games has announced a sequel to the creepy shooter The Darkness, heading to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC this autumn.

"The Darkness II is a well of dark and imaginative violence, and it’s a stylized and beautiful nightmare," said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. "The Darkness II continues the 2K Games tradition of delivering quality, innovative games that are filled to the brim with atmosphere and deep storytelling. The game takes a unique stance on fighting in the dark versus light. Combined with the arsenal of weapons at Jackie’s disposal and the gruesome attacks of the supernatural Demon Arms and Darkness powers, we’re proud to announce another title that delivers on our core values of creating games for gamers."

The original sold over a million units since its release in 2007.
