THQ is taking hits from all sides after reports of new law suits regarding uDraw and their retraction from Spain and Italy. Though, the latter will merely have Koch Media take over their distribution. Still, the company is dead set on its focus of some core franchises. It therefore released 2 star studded trailers; one for Darksiders 2 and one for WWE ’13.

The Darksiders live action clip stars James Cosmo from Game of Thrones. In it, we see the rest of humanity, huddled in a church, as Cosmo recounts the tales that led War to bring forth the apocalypse. Meanwhile, the end of times stands at their door and knocks. Only Death can stand in their way. Darksiders will release for consoles and PC in August and is announced for the Wii U’s release window.

WWE ’13 has a slightly different approach. In a form of Rocky parody, the trailer introduces none other than Mike Tyson as a playable character for the upcoming wrestling game. Apparently, the champion is a vegan, but is still instructed to eat people. He then states that there will be no more mister Nice Guy. Perhaps we don’t recall history correctly, but hasn’t he already eaten someone and isn’t he known to be not so nice? In any case, the boxer will mostly dish out punches and gets presented in the game without his now infamous face tattoo. He actually resembles actor Craig Robinson from The Office more. WWE ’13 comes out in November 2012.
