You might find a nice little freebie in your Xbox library today! That'll be the case if you own Darksiders 2: Deathinitive Edition for Xbox One anyway, as the free Xbox Series X|S upgrade is launching at some point in the next few hours.

Ahead of the launch, we've seen a few select outlets sharing their reviews of this upgrade - although specifically for the PS5 version. Nevertheless, it should be a pretty similar looking (and performing) game on Xbox Series X at least.

So, here's what some of the critics are saying about Darksiders 2's new remaster:

God Is A Geek (4.5/5)

"The visuals have been enhanced substantially, and while it still looks like an older game, the lighting is fantastic, with the environments feeling more alive than ever before. It looks so good in 4K, and it reminds you how ahead of its time it was when it originally released."

CGM (8.5/10)

"Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition celebrates the original’s strengths while polishing its presentation. Whether you’re revisiting the journey of Death or experiencing it for the first time, this edition is worth diving into for its blend of action, exploration, and compelling storytelling."

COGconnected (82/100)

"Thanks to its timeless, stylized graphic novel art direction, Darksiders II doesn’t look dated, though there are some pretty chunky models here and there, even in 4K and with ray tracing tossed in. The game looks incredibly sharp, crisp, and vibrant. Even with the PS5’s power, however, there was some pop-in in the larger areas."

Noisy Pixel (7/10)

"Regarding this boosted port, it doesn’t warrant a replay for the average player by any means, but if you’re a veteran or new fan, there’s enough justification for giving this release a whirl."

If you're eligible to receive this free upgrade for Darksiders 2, it'll be made available via Xbox Smart Delivery - which means the update should start automatically if you've already got the game installed on your console. If you haven't got it installed, when you go to download it on the Microsoft Store, you'll automatically get the right version.

As far as we know, it's somewhere around 9am ET / 2pm BST that it goes live, but there could be delays of course!
