If it goes the distance, Warhammer 40K: Darktide will get better with time. Being available day one on Game Pass for PC means no one, either alone or with friends should pass on giving this one a go.įans of Vermintide will definitely enjoy Darktide’s slightly more creative approach to character building, and anyone into fast-paced cooperative shooters - lovers of Warhammer 40,000 or not - will have a great time.

Hilarious banter, ridiculous fights, a great mission structure, and satisfying progression show that Fatshark is only getting better. You also get to customize your character and upgrade your gear.

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.
