THQ Nordic will be bringing back one of their epic hack-and-slash games to the world of modern gaming. That game is "Darksiders" and it will be remastered as the "Warmastered Edition." Players will once again step into the metal boots of one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, War.

According to IGN, the game will be released for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on Nov. 22, while the PC platform will get its own version Nov. 27. The retail version of the Wii U will be released on a later date since the digital copy will be released on the same date as the Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

THQ Nordic has also done a breakdown of what players are to expect from the "Darksiders Warmastered Edition":

  • Apocalyptic Power - Unleash the wrath of War, combining brutal attacks and supernatural abilities to decimate all who stand in your way
  • Extreme Arsenal - Wield a devastating arsenal of angelic, demonic and Earthly weapons; and blaze a trail of destruction atop Ruin, War's fiery phantom steed
  • Epic Quest - Battle across the wastelands and demon-infested dungeons of the decimated Earth in your quest for vengeance and redemption
  • Character Progression - Uncover powerful ancient relics, upgrade your weapons, unlock new abilities, and customize your gameplay style
  • Battle Heaven and Hell - Battle against all who stand in your way - from war-weary angelic forces to Hell's hideous demon hordes
  • Remaster Edition Features:
  • PS4, Xbox One and Wii U versions of Darksiders (Wrath of War)
  • Native 1080p rendering resolution
  • Doubled all the texture resolutions
  • Rendering improvements and rework
  • Better shadow rendering quality
  • Post processing effects
  • 60 FPS in moment to moment gameplay (PS4, Xbox One, PC, 30 FPS for Wii U)

The original "Darksiders" was released back in 2010, and it not only featured a hack-and-slash type of gameplay but also had puzzle and RPG elements as well. Players will have to uncover the truth behind what really caused the Apocalypse and clear the name of War, battling Angels and Demons in the process.
