Darksiders 2 disappearing from Wii U eShop in Europe March 31

For reasons currently unknown, Darksiders 2 will be removed from Europe's Wii U eShop on March 31. A message displayed on the shop notes that it will be available for re-download only for those who have purchased the game, and otherwise unavailable digitally. We suspect the reason has something to do with the implosion of publisher THQ.

We've checked in with both Nintendo of America and Nintendo of Europe for more information – Europe for specific reasoning, and America to see if Darksiders 2's eShop life is nearing its expiration date here as well.
