Darksiders

In Darksiders, players take control of War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, in a third-person perspective.The world is divided into separate locations with many areas initially inaccessible until later in the game. The center of the world, The Scalding Gallow, acts as a hub where War is given new objectives and paths to unlock new areas, many of which require the use of newly gained abilities to progress.(wikipedia.org)
