Release Date: October 27, 2015
Complete edition of Darksiders II, a TPP action game released in 2012, now remastered for the eight generation consoles by Nordic Games, who gained the license after the closure of THQ company. In the game you become one of the legendary Horsemen of the Apocalypse, trying to solve a complex intrigue and help one of his brothers, who got into some serious troubles.
Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition is an enhanced edition of Darksiders II, bringing forth more than a number of game improvements, but also all DLCs and expansions released to date. The production was released on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One by Nordic Games - the current owner of the franchise after the THQ company went bankrupt.
Story-wise, Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition for PC, PS4 and XONE is not different from the base game. You play as Death – one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse – trying to help a brother of his, War, who got into some serious trouble. As you begin to fight your way through the spirit world, you not only strive to uncover the overlaying intrigue, but also deal with the protagonist’s own problems and weaknesses. Moreover, you can do various missions and side quests that complement the main story and the setting.
Just as the original game, Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition for PC, PS4 and XONE puts much emphasis on spectacular combat in vast locations that you can explore on the back of your horse (or on foot). Some of the acrobatic moves the protagonist can use must be first unlocked along with new special skills gained by the player over time.
It is noteworthy that the enhanced edition works much smoother than the original production, therefore your protagonist’s acrobatics look even more impressive. Furthermore, the graphics look significantly better. The updated version has more detailed textures of both characters and environments, enhanced animations, more realistic lighting and weather effects. Sounds and music have remained unchanged.

Darksiders is a series of action adventure games with RPG elements and a third-person perspective. The plot of the series is loosely based on the biblical Book of Revelation, also known as the Revelation of St. John. The characters of the protagonists are reminiscent of the famous Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and the backdrop for the gameplay is the dramatic scenes of the end of the world - angels and demons fight in the ruins of modern cities, bringing death and destruction to a defenseless civilization of humans.

Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition need a re-release on the new gen consoles and PC? I always say yes when talking about remasters of much loved games, as it serves to introduce them to a new generation of gamers. Improvements have been given to the game to bring it right up to date and to make use of the newest tech. This game still remains a firm favourite in the gaming community, and it’s great to see it given a polish and offered up looking better than ever. I award this game the Thumb Culture Platinum Award!

For fans of the series the Deathinitive Edition's arrival on the Switch is the perfect excuse to go back and relive the adventure, it's as good as you remember. For everyone else there's never been a better time to embrace Death.
COGconnected: 82 / 100 by Mark Steighner
While I wouldn’t call Darksiders II underrated, sales notoriously underperformed in 2012. Since then, lots of players have taken the opportunity to enjoy the game on a variety of platforms in the expanded and excellent Deathfinitive edition. Any fan of recent action RPGs will almost certainly enjoy Darksiders II’s combat and world. It looks great on the PS5 and anyone with the PS4 version gets a free upgrade. It’s definitely worth diving into again, or for the first time in the new version.
