In a press release today, THQ Nordic announced that all hell will break loose on the Nintendo Switch come April. Indeed, Darksiders Warmastered Edition, the enhanced version of the first title in the Darksiders series, is coming to the Nintendo console. A new trailer was released for the announcement:

​

Deceived by the forces of evil into prematurely bringing about the end of the world, War – the first Horseman of the Apocalypse – stands accused of breaking the sacred law by inciting a war between Heaven and Hell. In the slaughter that ensued, the demonic forces defeated the heavenly hosts and laid claim to the Earth.

While the game is already available for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, it will launch on the Nintendo Switch this April 2nd priced at £25.99 / €29.99 / $ 29.99, both digitally and in retail stores.

Well technically for Nintendo, the WiiU IS part of this generation while the switch is part of the Nextgen.... Well would you look at that Nintendo is not behind on the times anymore and has surpassed everyone else lol

I see darksiders everywhere, i wish they could port this game on my androidOS washing machine, so I can play this game while waiting for laundries.

They even claimed the Switch to be a third pillar next to 3DS and Wii U (yeah...), so the Wii U theoretically still IS Nintendo's current gen home console!

I really miss very good games for the switch. We have enough ports for that thing.

 

[Jayro]

Good game at a good price. Win/Win

 

[Clydefrosch]

I tried two games in the series and they were so ungodly boring to me...

 

[trigao]

Best darksider yet
Ds2 is good, hope port to switch too
Ds3 is utter trash

i only tried one, it felt repetitive and it is pretty ugly in general.

 

[pedro702]

[goldensun87]

Portendo strikes again.

Happy with my Wii U version. Happy with my Wii U in fact. It gets played as much as my Switch and sadly died way too soon.

I bet if it is popular then they would gladly port 2nd game. However, I doubt for 3rd -- Maybe for Nintendo Switch 2.
