About

Take back the city of Tertium from hordes of bloodthirsty foes in this intense and brutal action shooter. Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is the new co-op focused experience from the award-winning team behind the Vermintide series.
In the depths of the hive, the seeds of corruption threaten to turn into an overwhelming tide of darkness. A mysterious and sinister new force is seeking to take control of the entire city. It is up to you and your allies in the Inquisition to root out the enemy before the city succumbs to Chaos.
As Tertium falls, Rejects Will Rise.


Built on the legacy of Vermintide 2’s best-in-class melee combat, Warhammer 40,000: Darktide introduces intense WH40K gunplay to the mix. Master the balance between ranged and melee combat as you fight through a slew of enemies. Feel the impact of each swipe, swing, and slice of a chainsword, or fry some flesh with a lasgun.


Darktide is a co-op game. Wandering too far, risks punishment by foes looking to immobilize or capture stray Rejects, such as the slavering Chaos Hound or the Moebian Trapper. Once you fall prey to such foes, only your teammates can save you! More than that, your innate toughness – your determination to press on through the pain – only recharges when you are in the proximity of your strike team.


Create your own, unique character and customize their physical appearance, voice, and origin. Choose your class to determine which unique traits and skill sets they will make use of in battle. Will you be a seasoned veteran of the Imperial army, a snarky outsider, or a fiery zealot? The choice is yours.


Step into the violent, dystopian world of Warhammer 40,000. From boiling hot industrial factories to the decaying water maintenance zone afflicted by constant acid rainfall - Tertium Hive is a hard and unforgiving place even at the best of times. Your role is to serve the zealous Inquisition by embarking on missions to exterminate the threats lurking in the depths of the hive city, or die trying.


Adapt to the erratic whims of Chaos with conditions- mutators that add a spontaneous challenge to your mission. Your team must learn to adjust, adopt new tactics and change up their loadouts to face these ruthless challenges.

make adhd brain go brrr
Really fun and satisfying way to serve the Emperor of Mankind! Would love to see more enemy variety also from other factions! Not to mention that Jesper Kyd made this game feel incredible with the music!
i liked the lore and violence the full story of 40k is fun to learn thats why i love this game
The game requires major overhauls in Quality of Life. They already had Singleplayer and small Multiplayer Lobbies in Vermintide so I don't get why they force you to connect to multiple people who you aren't even playing with just so you can select a mission. The game is also horribly optimised to the point that a relatively modern PC struggles on lower settings even with having to enable AI frame generation that makes the game look like frosted glass just so you don't get major stutters during basic gameplay.
It's like a Left4Dead but with a Warhammer 40k theme. + Satisfying gunplay (Specially the Boltgun) + Not too grindy - Too many DLCs - Menu's could be better 85/100 Pretty good
I was unsure at first because I have never played a Warhammer game but this is really cool. Playing co-op with friends makes the experience so much better. The customization is nice and the lore.. oh the lore.. 10/10 game
Satisfying slaughter and rewarding progression so far
Seens that they startet to only care about our pockets ... than about gameplay ... the new classes are released op just to sell as much as possible while old classes ... especially the veteran have fallen behind everything ....
good
KICK ASSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
