Warhammer 40,000: Darktide · published
On September 29, Get ready to return to Tertium and venture deeper into the Hive than ever before! The Depths of the Damned update introduces a new mini story campaign to Darktide, which reaches its climax in the brand new level, Spillway!
This new mission sends players into the deep and dangerous recesses of the Hive. The notorious domain of the Water Cartel is a sprawling labyrinth of tunnels, waterways and forgotten passages, crawling with chaos, decay and threats best left undisturbed. Spillway's journey is far from straightforward; strike teams must choose their paths wisely, and some routes are more perilous than others.
Expanded Arsenal: The warband is expanding their armory against Chaos with six new weapons coming to Darktide! Players will be able to unleash a mix of both new weapon marks and families accessible to a range of in-game classes.
For the new weapon families, Darktide is introducing the Ogryn Cruncher, Huntsman’s Shotgun and the Ogryn Thugshot.
The new weapon marks include the Crusher Krourk MK VII, Double-Barrelled Shotgun Krouk Mk IV, Gromm Mk I Battle Maul and Mk V Slab Shield.
For a more in depth breakdown of the weapons, keep an eye on our Feature Highlight coming soon!
Face The Prophet of Decay: Deep within the Hive, something has taken root. Little is yet known about the Prophet of Decay, save for one grim certainty...they are no ordinary spawn of Chaos. A powerful Psyker, the Prophet has made the depths of the Torrent its domain, and what awaits the Strike Teams in the dark remains to be seen.
Other Transmissions from the Hive: Alongside the above, the Depths of the Damned update will also feature additional content such as a new live event, store rotation and quality of life improvements.
That’s all we have for today! We hope you look forward to the Depths of the Damned update, as well as the Feature Highlights that we’ll be releasing!
We’ll see you on the Mourningstar.
