Fatshark recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Tide series, which includes Warhammer: End Times — Vermintide, Warhammer: Vermintide 2, and Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. To mark the occasion, the developers dropped a special trailer packed with player stats and shared their content roadmap for the coming months.

What's Coming

Warhammer: Vermintide 2:

  • The Geheimnisnacht event runs through November 2
