We were all happy after receiving a free copy of Darksiders Warmastered Edition, weren’t we? Did you wish for the same case with the Bulletstorm remaster? That’s a different story.
Bulletstorm was originally released in 2011. Despite generally positive reviews and final scores reaching 8/10, the game didn’t receive a proper sequel. We all hoped for an announcement during The Game Awards, but instead Gearbox revealed the Full Clip Edition. Owners of the original game might have hoped for a free update, but that won’t happen.
Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford was asked on Twitter about such a possibility. Short version: there’s none. “Not possible – completely different publisher, era, platform (it was Games for Windows only), product/sku, etc.,” he wrote. He also received a question about Darksiders and replied:
Not the same product. When we clean that up and release a new compendium Duke product, you can judge that move.

Moreover, there are no special discounts planned for the owners of the original Bulletstorm. Full Clip Edition is due on April 7th, 2017.
