The game will support native 1080p/60fps on PS4 and Xbox One, although that’ll drop to 30fps on Wii U. The PC version, meanwhile, includes support for 4K resolutions and “additional visual options”.
Here’s the full list of features:
- Native 1080p rendering resolution for console platforms
- 4k support and additional video options for PC
- 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 for WiiU)
Well received on its release in 2010, Darksiders is a third-person post-apocalyptic action game in which players take control of War, the first Horseman of the Apocalypse.
The remaster is set to release on October 25 for £14.99. To check out what it looks like, head through to the first screens.
