Anyways, these items are linked to your Achievements or Trophies for Darksiders so don't worry if you don't have that save file still either. Just know that if you are playing on an account where you have played and beaten the game on any difficulty you will be getting the Pauldron of the Horsemen, a level 5 legendary armor, which will boost all of Death's stats while donned. You will also gain the Chaos Fang, level 1 legendary scythe, which raises Death's damage output as well as critical strike chance.
Both of these are nice little items just for playing the first game, even though you will have to wait a bit to put on the armor. So if you have Darksiders in your back log, it looks like it will be totally worth wrapping that one up before you boot up Darksiders II. Now outside of just know the lore and story.
