Description official description

This is a conversion of Darksiders II for the Wii U platform. Next to the base game it incorporates all the DLC (downloadable content) released previously:

The GamePad is used as an inventory screen to quickly choose weapons, powers and protective outerwear instead of using the regular in-game menu. Optional control methods include jolting the GamePad to spur Death's horse or tilting it to roll around keys for puzzles in ancient temples. The game can also be played with the Pro Controller.
