Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Very good port!
THQ is doing an awesome job with porting these great titles over. Darksiders 1 for the Switch was a good port, but I'll admit that some of the control were lacking just a little. Mostly the aiming for that matter. However Darksiders 2 is great all the way around. It looks fantastic, it runs very well, the controls feel good and the action and story are pretty solid. Very happy I picked this up. Definitely worth $30, even though it's been out for many years now. If you see it, get it!

It keeps you busy
It's not a heavy Role-Playing Game (RPG), but it's enough to keep the gamer busy. There are some obstacles that may take a few times to get through, not because of the game play itself, but learning the controls to accomplish those scenes. There are some scenes where you'd have to run sideways, along the wall, to avoid falling into a pit. You're able to choose which type of weapon you'll use based on the weapons you picked up after killing enemies. You're able to use two different weapons and utilize both in combination or on its own. It's a basic RPG where the map is pretty straight forward. I've not come across a level where I had to unlock a door by first finding characters that hold pieces of the codes and are in different sections of the map. I've not come across a level where you'd need a guide book just to figure out, where on the map you'll need to visit first before trying to complete the map section you're currently stuck in. It's a pretty basic RPG setup.

Great game, good port
I initially played Darksiders 2 on Wii U back around the launch of Wii U. Back then, I thought the game looked great despite having less foliage then the 360 and PS3 versions, I thought it played great, and I thought ran well enough. However, the Wii U version missed most of the DLC. The Switch version has all of the DLC, looks better across the board, and has a much more stable framerate. While the Switch version isn't as good as the remastered version other platforms, it's hands down better then all of the non remastered versions. And, because it's on Switch, you can play it portably which is a big deal for me. I highly recommend it.
