It also chucks in a 2400 lot of the game’s Aquilas currency for players to buy, which should mean you can get cosmetic bundles without having to stump up for more Aquilas then you want. The 1.0.20 patch tackles a load of issues with everything from weapons to animations, and character customisation. Refining a single perk reduces resource costs for it, but choosing to refine any given perk does lock you out of others. There’s also a new crafting option called Refine, available in the Shrine Of The Omnissiah. To start private play you just need to choose that when beginning a mission from the mission board.

With the update, Darktide now supports private games for 2 to 4 players. Zealots can pick up the Indignatus Mk IVe Crusher two-hande power maul, while Ogryns can wield the Achlys Mk I in one of their massive mitts. There, you’ll have to send a message out to allies in the Imperium. One of the main additions is the Comms-Plex 154/2f map, which tasks you and your not-so-merry band to access the Comms Plex and make it to the roof of the HL-19-24 Archivum.

The update adds a slack handful of new stuff to Darktide, which launched at the end of November. The team is no doubt hoping lightning will strike twice as they leave the fantasy world behind for this grimdark sci-fi setting.Watch on YouTube Darktide lets you live out your grimmest Warhammer imaginings with three friends. That said, those hoping to see Vermintide 3 in the near future may have a long wait ahead of them with Fatshark currently focusing its efforts on taking their four player co-op formula to the far future in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. That kind of passion hasn’t gone unnoticed by the Warhammer community, who eagerly await what may be coming next for the series. “Overall, Vermintide 2 offers a brilliant core game bolstered by years of updates, content, and support from its developers.

We revisited Vermintide 2 recently and had a fantastic time once again. Further Reading: Vermintide 2 is still the best Warhammer action game ever Anyone that also owns Vermintide 1 or 2 (and presumably this free to keep download counts) will get the free DLC. If you are a Vermintide owner, then you’ll get a free Devoted Rejects Pack of cosmetics for Darktide. There will at least be the second level after Trail of Treachery, but you’d expect them to shift resources to keep supporting the Dark Millennium successor. It’s not clear how much longer this content train will continue, with Fatshark close to the release of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide on 30th November – pre-orders can play early with a beta on 17th November.
