Darksiders Warmastered Edition

Darksiders Warmastered Edition is developed by KAIKO, alongside original developer Vigil Games, and published by THQ Nordic. It released on November 29, 2016, for Windows via Steam, following console versions launched a week earlier. This remastered edition brings 2010’s Darksiders back with sharper visuals, casting players as War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, wrongly blamed for triggering the end of the world.

Sobre el juego

Darksiders Warmastered Edition rebuilds the original hack-and-slash action-adventure with meaningful visual upgrades rather than a ground-up remake. Support for up to 4K resolution, doubled texture resolutions, and re-rendered cutscenes bring War’s ruined Earth into sharper focus, while reworked shadow rendering and new post-processing effects modernize the overall presentation. Combat still centers on War’s massive Chaoseater sword alongside a growing arsenal of secondary weapons and abilities, blending brutal melee combat with puzzle-solving reminiscent of classic Zelda-style dungeon design.

Stripped of his powers by the Charred Council after the premature apocalypse, War must fight his way across a demon-infested Earth to clear his name and uncover who truly bears responsibility. Exploration rewards players who backtrack through earlier areas once new tools and abilities open up previously inaccessible paths, a structure that leans heavily on Metroidvania design. Wide-ranging graphic options, including FOV adjustment, anti-aliasing, and windowed or fullscreen modes, give PC players direct control over how the remaster performs on their hardware.
