Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition puts you in the role of Death, the most feared of the legendary Four Horsemen, in an action-adventure built around exploration and RPG progression. Roused by the End of Days, Death sets out on a personal quest to redeem his brother's name, becoming the terrifying force that everything fears yet nothing can escape.

As the journey unfolds, the Horseman discovers that an ancient grudge may threaten the whole of Creation, raising the stakes far beyond a simple act of redemption. What begins as one Horseman's effort to clear a name grows into a struggle that reaches across the world he travels, and this Deathinitive Edition packages that experience for players who want to step into the role and carve their own path through it.

Blending visceral combat, open exploration, and role-playing systems, the game keeps you moving through varied environments as Death pursues his goal. Its mix of action-adventure design and RPG progression on PC gives you room to grow more powerful over the course of the quest. Above all, it delivers on the series' defiant promise: Death lives.
