News:: Review: Darksiders: Warmastered Edition

Darksiders was one of the last generation's hidden gems, a dark, beautifully designed pastiche of several other action-adventure titles. Planned as a four-part series, the franchise only got as far as #Darksiders2 before publisher THQ declared bankruptcy in 2011, and its intellectual properties were sold off piece by piece. Most people who've played Darksiders were probably disappointed that THQ fell apart before the planned quadrilogy could be completed, as the two games we got were both highly entertaining, enjoyable action titles.

Fortunately, the company that purchased the rights to Darksiders, Nordic Games, seems to be interested in keeping the franchise alive. After purchasing the bulk of THQ's IP, it rebranded its company as THQ Nordic earlier this year. Darksiders: Warmastered Edition is the first release under this new branding, and it's a great way to start things off.
