About the Game
Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is the sequel to the critically acclaimed Vermintide. The time has arrived to revisit the fierce first-person co-op slaughter-fest featuring visceral and ground breaking melee action, set in the apocalyptic End Times of the war-ravaged Warhammer Fantasy Battles world.
Our five heroes have returned to take on an even greater threat – the combined forces of a malevolent and destructive Chaos army and the swarming Skaven horde. Prepare to be challenged like never before as you and your team desperately try to survive the never-ending onslaught. Choose between 15 different careers, climb the talent trees, customize your arsenal to fit your unique play style, fight your way through a myriad of stunning levels, and challenge yourself in our new Heroic Deeds System. The only thing standing between utter defeat and victory is you and your allies. If you fall - so will the Empire.
Key Features
- Progression
- Level up your heroes to unlock new talents, abilities and access to powerful gear.
- Talent Tree
- Each Hero has three careers to choose from. All careers include a unique talent tree, allowing you to spec your Hero to best suit your playstyle.
- Abilities
- The Heroes are bolstered with one active and passive ability, each unique for every career. Abilities can be crucial in turning the tide of a battle, so learn to use them effectively to increase the killing capacity and survival chance of your team.
This sequel manages to improve in almost every area when compared to the first game. Co-op play is a blast and the first-person melee gameplay is spot-on, we just wish the weapons felt a bit heavier. Our only small complaint is the balance is a bit off and we're not a fan of the loot system. Those issues still didn't stop us from putting a bunch of hours into the game though. If you're into games like Left 4 Dead you will want to check this one out.
