After launching in 2010--and again in 2016 with the Warmastered Edition for PC, PS4, Wii U, and Xbox One--the original Darksiders is riding onto PS5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles on May 19. Publisher THQ Nordic has announced a new port of the action-RPG, and a few more details on how the PS5 version will differ from the PS4 edition have also been revealed.

Physical and digital editions will be available, priced at 30, but there has been no mention of an upgrade path yet for owners of the last-gen version of the Warmastered Edition.On PS5, Darksiders will be presented in a native 4K resolution and at a stable 60fps. DualSense and Activities Cards support has been added, and the game now features a photo mode.

The debut game from developer Vigil Games, Darksiders followed the horseman of the apocalypse, War, and his steed Ruin as they battled across the wastelands and demon-infested dungeons of a post-apocalyptic Earth.
