Another random question, is it possible to keep playing on after defeating the final boss?
To farm up or do the crucible only and proceed to new game+ later on?
Crucible Info
- Fight increasingly harder waves.
- Every 5 waves cleared you are given a choice: Continue | Loot (Once selected, this resets your progress)
- Every 25 waves cleared (in a row) you unlock a "Checkpoint" of sorts.
- When you return, you can start from the beginning or start from an unlocked checkpoint.
- Loot from the "Loot" option is generated based on total waves completed - the more waves completed, the more loot you get!
- Dying in combat results in NO loot. You could clear 48 waves, die on wave 49, and you will get NOTHING.
- There are unique Crucible-only rewards.
- Loot from The Crucible is completely usable in the story/campaign and vice versa.
- Once unlocked, you can access The Crucible while in Story mode (very easily!).
- There are leaderboard stats for The Crucible.
- Dying in The Crucible in Nightmare Mode = Combat Death (the worst kind).
As a side note, something I mentioned before, this mode was made as a direct response to fans. We wanted to make sure players had an area to practice combat, test out builds, and also have even more challenges once they've beaten the game once, twice, 10 times!
Take a peek at The Crucible; fighting arena for Darksiders 2, or don't spoil it and ignore this link.

Just played through DS1 again. SO pumped for this game. Only disappointed in the fact that we probably won't see war again.
*cough*

Very very noob question-
How is this played on the PC? Controller only or is there an actually viable way to play this with mouse and keyboard?
I'm already looking forward to what they do with Darksiders III.
EEEEEEVVVVVVVIIIIILLLLLLLL
Thank you tragic, I'll waste a lot of time in this mode alright.
Hope we can get dat combo video soon @____@
Tragic, what is the highest level/wave number you can reach in the Crucible?
Arena modes should come standard in combat intensive action games.

tragic, can you use health potions in Crucible mode?

Another random question: Where will the leaderboards be stored or which online service does it use? Only steamworks or is there something else?

No, no no. That is a new ability of Death.

maybe these screens are not from the final build.
