War. War sometimes changes. For the better.

<span class="bold">Darksiders: Warmastered Edition</span>, the ultimate version of War's apocalyptic adventure against the forces of Heaven and Hell, is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com, with a 80% launch discount.

Can the Apocalypse look beautiful? Well, in Darksiders: Warmastered Edition it does! All the texture resolutions have been doubled, the shadows are now rendered in higher quality, post-processing effects have been added, and the game runs smoother than ever.

Unfortunately, War doesn't have time to stop and admire the sights: Earth is a bloody mess, with Angels and Demons still battling each other, locked in an eternal struggle for power. The first rider of the Apocalypse is wrongfully accused for letting this happen, but he's not about to sit idly and see the world burn. Armed with an impressive arsenal, his trusty steed Ruin, his incredible platforming skills, and his penchant for combat, he is determined to find those responsible and bring them to justice. And this time, his epic adventure will look better than ever!

Join War's apocalyptic fight to clear your name in the spectacular-looking <span class="bold">Darksiders: Warmastered Edition</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com.
The 80% discount also applies to <span class="bold">Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition</span> and will last until December 2, 5:59 PM UTC.

Note: This edition is free for anyone who already owns Darksiders. Buying Warmastered Edition will also give you the original version as a free bonus.

Nice upgrade! So is it just a texture enhancement or does it change the gameplay?
Posted November 29, 2016
Awesome, thanks Nordic and GOG for the free upgrade!
Posted November 29, 2016
A freebie? Love it. Thanks GOG!

What an awesome pricing model, especially for a remaster that's had more work put into it than most. And lord knows this game definitely needed it, if only for the lackluster quality of the PC port for the original.

tremere110: Oh thank you! Also thank you for allowing us to keep the original in case the new one doesn't work for us for some reason. BTW - any chance of allowing the same thing for Darksiders 2? Letting people who own the Deathfinitive edition access to the original would be great!
I second this, not everyone was a fan of some of the visual changes the Deathinitive Edition made.

Thiev: Original installer will be available with a slight (~1h) delay. It will contain all languages bundled into one setup and you will be able to download it from extras section.
For Galaxy users, it will be possible to switch to public 'legacy' branch and download it from there.

Marioface5: This is exactly how remasters should be handled. Only sell the remastered version, but have it grant access to both the remastered and original versions. Hopefully if we ever get the Bioshock games and Skyrim they'll be handled the same way.
I'm still salty we don't have the original release of Metro 2033, Redux dumbed down the stealth a little too much for my liking.

Thank you, thank you and thank you! You guys over there at Nordic, are simply the best! Not only you took in an old game in a sorry state, not only you optimized it and made it better, but even gifted it to us, for free... I was planning to get it as i said before and instead of me purchasing, you became mine-no, our early santa claus!

I wish you the very best! Keep up the good work and i wholeheartedly wish you gamers to acknowledge you, praise you, reward you!

And just like with 2, we get to keep the old version, as well! Thank you! And did i say, thank you? No, seriously, i can't thank you enough!

I like getting free games. But when I get a free game even without doing anything, I like it more :))

Thanks for the great work Nordic's been doing on GOG. Any plans to add the original Darksideres 2+DLC to the Deathinitive Edition?

First impression is good. (5 min or so)
The original version was a shitty port, only options were resolution and vsync.
