So for those like me or have kind of lost memory of the game from about four years ago, let me throw out the nice recap 2K Games has written up for us.
It's been two years since Jackie Estacado, now the Don of the Franchetti crime family, used The Darkness to kill the men responsible for his girlfriend's murder. He's been unable to shake the memory of Jenny's death since bottling up his supernatural power, and now The Darkness wants out. A sudden, unprovoked attack on Jackie's life heralds the start of a full-scale mob war, which has clearly been orchestrated by some outside force. The botched attempt opens the door for The Darkness to reemerge, and sets Jackie on a journey to hell and worse, as he unravels the mystery behind the attack and the motivations of The Darkness itself. |
So there we go. Outside of the below image there is very little else to bring up here for all of you Darkness fans. Well outside of these bullet points.
