Description
Darksiders II follows the exploits of Death, one of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse, in an action-packed tale that runs parallel to the events in the original Darksiders game. This epic journey propels Death across an expansive gameworld as he tries to redeem his brother, War, the horseman blamed for prematurely starting the Apocalypse in Darksiders.

Like the original Darksiders game before it, the second iteration of the series is primarily a hack ‘n slash adventure. The game takes place across netherworld environments, including "The White city," an outpost where angels live, and "The Eternal Throne," a floating fortress where the Lords of the Dead stand guard over souls that need to be cleansed.

Although Death is the most feared of the Four Horsemen, his physical abilities are very different than his brother, War. Death is far more nimble, and relies on a combination of melee and ranged attacks. In combat Death's primary weapon is his huge iconic scythe, with a wide range of other weapons and usable items that must be gathered as the game progresses. Weapons can be dual-wielded, upgradable armor can be acquired for protection and Death has access to his terrifying and powerful mount, Despair.

Deathinitive Edition Features:

Darksiders 2 with All DLCs included and integrated into the game, offering a total playtime of more than 30 hours (Maker Armor Set, The Abyssal Forge, The Demon Lord Belial, Death Rides, Angel of Death, Deadly Despair, Shadow of Death, Mortis Pack, Rusanov's Axe, Van Der Schmash Hammer, Fletcher's Crow Hammer, Mace Maximus, Argul's Tomb).

Review after 26.11.2015 patch.

There is lot's of negative reviews do to technical issues the game had at launch. Just so you know, most if not all of the bugs where fixed with the patch. For me the game works fine with no stutter.

Thank you for fixing it, GOG!

I bought this game on Steam some time ago and could never get past the very first enemy, because the screen would go black or white or the game would crash (one of the 3 would randomly occur). I tried everything suggested in the forums but no luck at all. So I refunded it. Today on a whim I bought it on GOG, as it was on sale. I fully expected it to crash - especially after reading some of the earlier reviews. But I've had no problems and am well into the game. Clearly GOG must have fixed it because the Steam edition has never worked. Thanks!

Review (08/10/2018) NO ISSUES FOUND

I have been playing the game for more than 20 hours and at the moment I have not found any error or issue whit the game. With the latest updates the problems whit the buttons and the shadows have been fixed. I really recommend this game if you haven't played or if you want to have it in your collection. :)

Old Reviews Don't Reflect Improvements

This game is an example of where people really were upset about new issues that were not in the original release of the game. The game plays much better now and the improvements really shine. Integrating the DLC is always a welcome addition as it makes everything feel like one coherent piece. I thought the game was good, even though it was less like the first one; it plays a lot more hack and slash than a Zelda game. More Prince of Persia now. I dig it, and now that it's available DRM Free in its complete form it is absolutely worth grabbing. Fans of the original game, and newcomers alike will find lots to enjoy here. The only con I have is that it does not come with a "Legacy" version like Darksiders 1 Warmasters Edition does, although unlike the original there isn't a lot of changes to substance that may warrant a separate version. This was more of a Dark Souls 2 Scholar of the First Sin compilation than it is a Dark Souls Remastered; if the comparison makes sense. They consolidated what they had and increased texture resolutions; other than visually there aren't many engine enhancements.
