About the Game
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.

Hotfix 1.12.2 patch notes
Features & Tweaks
Reduced the unlock requirement for the Pro-Trader (5) Penance from 100,000 salvage to 20,000 salvage.
Vanguard Enemies:
Sweep priority between head and shield hitzones have been equalized; this change will make it so less of the hits that visually should have hit the head will be consumed by the shield instead.
Tweaked the Weakspot damage multipliers as follows:
Dreg Vanguard 0.5 → 0.75
Scab Vanguard 0.5 → 0.65
Change to Damage over Time type damage behaviour. The initial hit will inflict stagger as expected, but the DoT damage itself will not contribute to the impact required to ”open” the shield.
Reduced the unlock requirements of the following Skitarii Penances:
Curse of Malfunction: 500 → 75
Corpuscarian Disciple: 5000 → 1500
Voltaic Warrior: 5000 → 2500

Patch 1.11.4 is now being rolled out on all platforms, and while you wait for it to download you can read the notes below!
This update has some minor tweaks and Hive Scum balance changes, and several bug and crash fixes.
On top of that…
Expeditions Map Update
As the Deadside and its climate is very volatile and unstable, the long range sensors of the Mourningstar struggle with updated information about enemy movement and the general lay of the land. This means that the Expedition Map will update on a regular basis, presenting new challenges and setups to explore.
With this update we begin our first Expedition Map rotation for the Expeditions Game Mode! Starting later today, the existing nodes have been wiped and replaced with a new set of unique nodes, complete with a new modifier and environment condition to keep things fresh!
The new grid points will have to be unlocked from the new starting node, as you begin another cycle of gathering Tech-Remnants and unlocking grid points. As Tech-Remnants are linked to each Expedition Map rotation, you’ll all start again on equal footing!
One of the nodes is special! To unlock it, the community as a whole must gather 200,000,000 Tech-Remnants total! Each member of the Strike Team is counted separately for this requirement, meaning that a team of four that extracts successfully will add their Tech-Remnants gathered to the pool four times at once.

Features & Tweaks
The ‘Live Events’ view now displays information on past live events.

Quickplay matchmaking will now be disabled when selecting Private Game from the additional matchmaking options.
Hive Scum talents 'Adrenaline Smiter' and 'Splash Damage' now count kills from attacks that latch on to enemies.
Hive Scum talent 'Street Tough' can no longer be triggered by Specialist melee attacks, like the Pox Hound pounce.
The message shown in the Expedition menu while matchmaking should now better reflect why you cannot start another mission.
Players no longer receive damage from being slammed into walls by a sand storm.

Known Issues
When doing an Expeditions Auspex Puzzle, players can lose access to their Auspex if they cancel the minigame by swapping weapons. Players can recover their Auspex by attempting the minigame again and cancelling normally.
Note: If another player completes the minigame before you recover your Auspex, you will lose access to your Auspex for the remainder of the Expedition, which will hinder navigation and will make it impossible to perform Auspex Puzzles.

Known Issues
When hot-joining an expedition, players can crash if the rest of the team is inside a Sanctuary.Fixed!When doing an Expeditions Auspex Puzzle, players can lose access to their Auspex if they cancel the minigame by swapping weapons. Players can recover their Auspex by attempting the minigame again and cancelling normally.
Note: If another player completes the minigame before you recover your Auspex, you will lose access to your Auspex for the remainder of the Expedition, which will hinder navigation and will make it impossible to perform Auspex Puzzles.
When hot-joining an expedition, players might enter the mission as dead if it happened while the existing players were leaving a Sanctuary.
Rarely, when hot-joining an Expedition, the entire team might disconnect from the mission.
Some texture anomaly can occur when hot-joining an Expedition while players are in a Sanctuary.
The Expeditions grid map names don’t match with the Greek symbol associated with them.
Players can use some of the new grenades while inside a Sanctuary. Please be nice to the locals.
Some of the new items found in Sanctuaries can’t be tagged.
Some breakable walls in Expeditions can be walked through even without breaking them.
Some textures can bug out when playing on AMD GPUs.
When disconnecting from a mission, the camera can flicker until the loading screen shows up. This should be solved in an upcoming hotfix.
Players can hot-join private matches if they enter matchmaking through Quickplay.
Some barrel explosion animations can trigger more times than intended. This is only a visual issue.
\[Xbox Only] Some level and enemy textures can take a while to load, leaving a low-quality texture visible until it finishes loading.
The description for Psyker’s “Psykinetic’s Aura” ability is missing localization in some languages.
When respawning, ammo count on the HUD can show incorrect numbers.
In Expeditions with tornadoes, sometimes players can be spun around and taken for a ride even with no tornadoes nearby.

Warband,
Patch 1.10.7 is currently rolling out across our platforms. In the meantime, you can read the notes below.
We are currently investigating some minor errors that caught our attention, and we wanted to take the opportunity to implement changes to easier track these issues in this update.
This is not impacting the game, but it means that the patch size is a bit bigger than normal.

Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue introduced in Patch 1.10.6 that caused damage calculations to use an incorrect value for what was considered “Far Range”.

Warband,
Patch 1.10.6 is currently rolling out across our platforms. In the meantime, you can read the notes below.
This patch comes with adjustments to the Hive Scum talents, both to polish some interactions and improve on underused ones. It also includes some general cosmetics and bugfixes.
Patch 1.10.6 patch notes
Hive Scum Changes
Developer’s note: “Hey guys. Hive Scum is getting a few changes in this update. This time, we’re targeting some general talent quirks and bringing them a bit more up to snuff. The Stimm Lab is getting the bigger changes, with a rework on one of its branches. Cheers.” - Teodor, class designer.
‘Stimm Lab’ Has gotten a buff on durability related talents (top left branch):
Any ‘Toughness Regeneration’ buffs have been swapped for ‘Toughness Replenishment’ (the original buff was only active while in coherency outside of combat. The latter modifies the amount of Toughness gained instead. This change should make the talents way more active and useful).
‘Barrage I-IV’ now grants 6.25% Toughness, +5% Toughness Replenishment and +4% Damage Reduction each (note: the Toughness gained from Barrage is not affected by its own Toughness Replenishment bonus. That bonus is applied to Toughness gained during the duration of the Cartel Special itself).
‘Tank’ now grants +30% Toughness Replenishment instead of +20%.
‘Regain’ now grants 5% Toughness every 1s for the duration of the Cartel Special, instead of 25% in one go.
Talent changes:
‘Cheap Shots’ now grants +15% Strength against both medium and heavy staggered enemies, and +10% against light staggered enemies.
‘Nimble’ is now properly labeled as granting Dodge Speed. The bonus to dodge windows is also now a flat bonus instead of a multiplicative bonus. This means that, yes, it is applied to dodges against ranged fire, but won’t be as effective as when dodging against melee attacks, due to not having the default values that those types of dodges have.
Dodge Speed bonus changed from +25% to +0.15s.
‘Rampage!’ no longer makes the player “exhausted” after use, the ability now simply ends.
‘Channelled Aggression’ no longer requires the duration of Rampage to be above a certain threshold. It is now active throughout.
‘Unload’ now refreshes itself if triggered while active, and can be triggered by activating Desperado.
‘Pocket Toxin’ now infects enemies with different amounts of Chem Toxin depending on the equipped Blitz:
Blinder/Blackout: 3.
Boom Bringer: 6.
Chem Grenade: 10 (note: the talent adds stacks of Chem Toxin on explosion, meaning that the Chem Grenade grants them on its initial blast. The stacks added by the area of effect remains the same).
‘Chem Grenade’:
Now has an appropriately sized explosion radius that matches the visuals. There’s no real notable gameplay change, but it does mean that it can now properly benefit from ‘Pocket Toxin’.
Duration reduced from 20s to 15s to better align with similar Blitz abilities, like the Immolation Grenade.
New, more elaborate talent description.
Fixed terminology in some places:
‘Ranged-’ and ‘Melee Attack Immunity’ talents are now properly rewritten as ‘Counts as Dodging’, to convey how they actually work, and highlight that they also trigger dodges (which can interact with other talents in the Hive Scum tree).
‘Dodge Extended’ has been properly rewritten as ‘Dodge Speed’ (Dodge Speed does increase the length of the dodge, but the main benefit is the increase in speed).
Bug Fixes
General Fixes
Fixed an issue where the looping shooting sound for the Ogryn Twin-Linked Heavy Stubbers restarted on every bullet shot.
Fixed an outline issue when using the Desperado ability near Dreg Ritualist enemies in the Dark Communion mission.
Fixed an issue where damage from Needle Pistol Toxins didn't trigger effects from the Hive Scum Talents 'Speedloader' and 'Vulture's Mark'.
Fixed text formatting of objectives for Hive Scum's basic training step for the Ability.
Cosmetic Fixes
Pyre Blade: fixed an issue where the VFX was not spanning the full length of the blade.
Antax Mk III Conclave-issue Tactical Helm: fixed the red visor.
Commando Beret with Augmetic Implant (Green): fixed some visual issues.
Pugilist Armour (XXXXL) (Tread Lightlies): fixed some clipping and physics issues
