About the game

Steel yourself against the forces of corruption and arm yourself with faith and fury as the End Times approach in Warhammer: Vermintide 2! Sequel to Fatshark's critically acclaimed cooperative first-person slaughterfest, Vermintide 2 takes its brutal melee combat to new heights as your heroes arm themselves with new weapons and tactics, while a remorseless new enemy enters the fray.

Set in the End Times of Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy universe, Vermintide sees the heroes of Ubersreik gathered together once more to stave of the coming apocalypse by launching daring raids into ruins, battlegrounds, and dungeons pitting themselves against old foes like the swarming hordes of Skaven rat-men and their hellish contraptions, as well as dangerous new enemies like the diseased cultists known as the Rotbloods, and their armored Chaos Warrior masters.

Vermintide owes clear gameplay descent to coop zombie games like Left 4 Dead, with its strong cast of characters, mission-based gameplay and swarming hordes of enemies, but it also manages to carve its own bloody path by making combat up close and personal, with your adventurers armed with medieval swords, axes, hammers and polearms, as well as the occasional bow and black-powder gun. Players will have to balance stealth, careful coordination, and reckless abandon as they weave in and out of the melee, cutting down rat-men, cultists, and worse, while keeping an eye out on each other and the mission.

Vermintide 2 introduces strong new mechanics, such as sub-classes for each of game's heroes, allowing you to focus on different aspects of each warrior's weapons, tactics and training. Players can customize their heroes with cosmetic customizations as well as game-changing weapons and armor, with each hero having their own unique options that reward varying playstyles, from the sweeping crowd control of polearms and greatswords to the defensive bulwark of sword and shield combat (and let's not even get into the pyrotechnic possibilities of the fire wizard's many magical tools!).

While the game is playable solo, Vermintide 2 really shines in cooperative multiplayer, as your adventuring party charges into battle against the forces of corruption.

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is available on Xbox One, Playstation 4, and Microsoft Windows, with extra downloadable content such as “Return to Ubersreik” and “Shadows over Bogenhafen” providing even more adventures.
