An excellent remaster that fixes what many users complained about when the original launched: HD textures, a different lighting engine (which may be subject to preference, as it is more realistic than before and thus things aren't as glowy anymore), DLC integrated into the main game, and plenty of fixes as well as rebalancing of enemies and gear.
Honestly, this upgrade is worth it for the highly detailed textures and new environmental effects alone.

If you've never played Darksiders II, this version is excellent for you, too. It includes all DLC content previously available and runs smooth on modern systems - even on my old (and hopefully soon to be replaced) AMD5750 graphics card, it runs just about the same as the original did, at a drastic increase in visual fidelity.

Overall, I am very pleased. Finally the game looks like the artists intended it to originally, but weren't able to realize before. It is well worth picking up.
