The "Darksiders 2" Deathinitive Edition will be launching tomorrow, according to Eurogamer.net.

"Darksiders 2" launched more than three years ago and it became one of the best games to play at that time. Unfortunately the old game developer, THQ, disbanded and the franchise was bought by Nordic Games. To resurrect the franchise, the game was introduced to the PC platform, but it got mediocre results, according to sources.

The Deathinitive Edition PC version of the game will be released on the Steam Store page on Nov. 5. The PS4 and Xbox One versions were released earlier on Oct. 27.

This edition will have the original "Darksiders 2" game plus all of the DLC. This edition will also have an improved graphics engine with 1080p support. Lastly the game balance and loot distribution has been reworked and tuned, according to PC Gamer.

There is good news for owners of the franchise pack because they will get the new edition for free. When the game goes live, the franchise pack will be removed from the Steam library. For those who own the original "Darksiders 2" on PC, they will get an 80 percent discount code to use. A gamer can use the code during the first week of the launch.

On the other hand, for those who did not own "Darksiders 2," they can purchase the game with a 20 percent discount for the first week, according to Hardcore Gamer.

Some owners of the original game are complaining because they only own one or two DLC releases so they can't get the free upgrade, according to sources. The new game publishers explained this issue via a forum.

"We had to bind tier one to one single SKU, which was and is the Franchise pack," the post stated. "Eighty percent off isn't too bad either, right?"

"Darksiders 2" Deathinitive Edition is priced at $30 on Steam.
