About
Fight together with your friends against hordes of enemies in this new Warhammer 40,000 experience. From the developers of the best-selling and award-winning co-op action franchise Vermintide, Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is a visceral 4-player co-op action game set in the hive city of Tertium.
In the depths of the hive, the seeds of corruption threaten an overwhelming tide of darkness. A heretical cult known as the Admonition seeks to seize control of the planet Atoma Prime and lay waste to its inhabitants. It is up to you and your allies in the Inquisition to root out the enemy before the city succumbs to Chaos.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide reviews and comments
First impressions. Seems like Vermintide except I probably like the art style and setting more. Fun playing coop with Hayden for this one, definitely rough around the edges though and I’m not sure how much content is really here yet.
I’m having fun playing coop. It’s a decent turn off your brain game. The melee has a decent feel to it. I didn’t love the ogryn’s first few guns but the last couple have been alright. The missions have been decent. There’s a good flow to them. I do feel as soon as my characters progression slows down to much im going to end up getting bored. But we will see.
Had a couple really fun sessions in a row. When the difficulty is tuned just right and you need to stick together as a squad, the combat is great. It has a good feel to it and it’s super intense. I’ve also found a gun I like now. The twin barrel big heavy machine gun is awesome. I wasn’t a big fan of the shotguns and missile launcher. Also this game has a surprisingly great skill tree.
The cosmetics are quite weak. For a game if this style there should be more and better options for cosmetics that don’t need real money. Things are over priced and there aren’t many good items.
I became pretty great as the ogryn with a shield and machine gun. I decided to start a new character as well to test out some new guns. Went with the zealot because the chainsaw swords look sick.
Went back to ogryn for a bit. Got him to level 30. I’m starting to get a bit fatigued. I down to olay more but will probably only do coop with Hayden. This game surpassed my expectations though. It was quite a fun time, despite some major flaws and seemingly slimy developer decisions.
Final Score: B+
