I know that these items are probably locked on the game disk, but I think it is a nice gesture from THQ and Vigil to let people who have bought and played through the first Darksiders get access to the content for free.http://www.darksiders.com/blog-post/unlock-power-war-playing-darksiders

Neat! Now I extra hope the PS3 version is fine! I know that's something that shouldn't be an issue these days (especially since the first one was fine on PS3), but hey, Skyrim.

Also, I played the first on PS3. If you couldn't tell.

Thankfully, it's based on achievements. My save files were lost on a HDD that decided to go kaput.

I really need to go back and S-rank the first Darksiders. Why did I never do that?!

All I really want from darksiders 2 is for it to remember to keep the y axis inverted when I stop playing.

Awesome. I was really bummed when I realized that my Borderlands save had not been saved in the Steam Cloud, so I couldn't unlock the new skins for Borderlands II. Granted, those were just cosmetic features (and ugly ones, I might add) that didn't change the gameplay at all, but still...

I S-Ranked the first Darksiders on Steam, so hopefully I won't have any problems getting these sweet items.

Good stuff.

Well that's fantastic. I uploaded my Darksiders 1 save to PSN's cloud storage when they gave out free PS+ and deleted the local copy. Now I have no intentions of renewing my subscription and my save is stuck there >_>

Glad it's based on achievements/trophies rather than game saves because god knows my save is long gone.

Cool, I like when games get you extra stuff if you played other ones. It's a nice bonus for following the series.

The items unlock based on the Achievements/Trophies you have, so as long as you did get those Achievements, you won't be needing your save.

@jakob187: Most likely because some of the achievements are super grindy.

Darksiders II

Players return to the post-Apocalypse in the sequel to 2010's Darksiders, this time as former protagonist War's fellow Horseman of the Apocalypse, Death, the pale rider, who seeks to resurrect Humanity to clear his brother's good name.
