The latest pre-order numbers are in for Darksiders II and it was another week of stagnant growth. The 360 version added 2,820 pre-orders, giving it a total of 82,720, while the PS3 version added 1,853 pre-orders, now totaling 72,493. Combined the two versions total over 155,000 pre-orders, which is just short of the roughly 157,000 pre-orders the original Darksiders got between the two versions. I imagine by this time next week, Darksiders II will officially pass the original game in lifetime US pre-orders.
The 360 version remains at the #13 spot on the list, while the PS3 version moved up one spot to #17 on the chart. This past week LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes released for multiple consoles, while the soon to release NCAA Football 13 surged ahead of Darksiders II, causing the slight shift in this weeks rankings. Not a single game on the Top 50 is set to release this week, meaning not many gamers will be entering their retail stores. This likely means a rather shallow week in reserves coming up and it also means the PC version of Darksiders II will likely have to wait a little longer before it cracks the charts. You can go ahead and make the jump to check out this weeks complete numbers.
