A developer needs to move their franchise forward by introducing new ideas to keep it from getting stale, while making sure they retain the core elements that made the first game a success. Vigil Games took a leap of faith with the second installment of the Darksiders series, and luckily their ambitions paid off. Death’s tale is a grandiose action RPG that surpasses the original Darksiders in almost every regard.

Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition, despite being another re-release, shows that Darksiders II is an incredible game that deserves more attention.
