Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition was a terrible name, but we could appreciate the attempt at wordplay. Darksiders: Warmastered Edition is just plain terrible – though we have the sneaking suspicion that someone at Nordic Games is having a laugh. Warmastered Edition – seriously? C'mon!
The game was obviously teased at a Spanish convention over the weekend, but now has been officially announced. You can expect the original Zelda-esque adventure in its entirety, running at 60 frames-per-second in 1080p on the PlayStation 4. The dev's doubling the texture quality and improving the title's shadowing, while adding some nice new post-processing effects.
As a 2010 release, we were never expecting this to look particularly impressive – it wasn't exactly a looker on the PlayStation 3 to begin with – but the first batch of screenshots show that the title's comic book artstyle has been retained, though the overuse of chromatic aberration could do with being toned down.
Still, this is a decent game – especially as it's the closest thing to Ocarina of Time that you're going to find on a PlayStation platform. There's no confirmed release date just yet, but we'd expect it later this year. This should be well worth a look if you're searching for something to scratch your Breath of the Wild itch.

Its not that bad lol.... His name is war + remastered . it could be worse. Looking forward to killing angels and demons again. Darksiders 2 deathinetly lacking
I only played a bit of the second game when it was on Games with Gold on 360. Might finally get round to playing them both in full now (though it's odd they've released them in reverse order).
At least the word "evolved" is nowhere to be seen!
ROFL I kinda like it, its rampant stupidity can't be unironic.
p.s. if you need a Zelda clone and have a PS3 lying around, play OKAMI HD first! It's actually better than some Zelda incarnations and those are some nice games.
YES 60 FPS. Nice to see that doubled texture quality too!
And yes, @get2sammyb. I let "Deathinitive" slide because it was good wordplay, but this...this doesn't come close.
It seems like the guys Nordic Games are making fun of this remaster trend. But really, I like the names, their different and funny. How many "Remastereds" or "Definitive Editions" do we really need?
I'll be purchasing the Wii U version of the game as I just got a PS3 and have no need to upgrade anytime soon.
@Feena At least it's better than that cancelled Trashmania collection that was going to release on the Wii U...Trashmania: Garbage Dump Edition...0.o
really Sammy stop being a hater it's a good name.way better than that crap Dragon age inquisition
Hahhahahahahahhaha awesome! Now I want the game...ahahhahahahahha it's so bad that's funny, like Sharknado!
Definitely not worse than integrity and faithlessness.
Still crap edition.
worst name for me it's still Battleborn
I like it!
That's a great name!
Netflix Yellow subtitles is worse than those Subtitles.
Worth it for the title alone
This is definitely in "So bad it's good" territory.
Which is where I live.
@Napples Agreed.
Never played the original but if it's anything like Ocarina of Time- which I'm currently playing through again on 3ds- count me in. What a game.
"Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition was a terrible name..."

@Feena
Cant believe how Capcom rereleases RE6 on PS4 but not Okami. As with RE4, it is a game that should be available everywhere.
@Feena cough 3d Dot Game Heroes cough
Ha, that is pretty damn good.
they just embarrass to call it a remastered because their half-baked remastering the re-release...
@sinalefa agreed infinity plus
@SoulsBourne128 very nice game, wouldn't put it up there with Zelda and Okami though -but I really enjoyed it. I feel like 10 people played it, sadly
Dragon Quest heroes: The worlds tree woes.
Now that's THE worst!
I always thought the PushSquare subtitles were terrible, this is even worse
So bad. Lol
Deathinitely the worse subtitle ever.
Haaa, I'll let Warmastered slide. Good game.
@Rukiafan7 You made me google Trashmania: garbage dump edition. Now I am surely profiled by some mental health institution using google algorithms.
