Fatshark is excited to open the Pre-Order Beta for “Warhammer 40,000: Darktide” ahead of the full release on November 30th. Starting now, players can choose from 4 missions across 4 zones. More missions will be added throughout the Pre-Order Beta period, while the team will also run in-game events to challenge players in new and exciting ways. This ramp-up allows for fine-tuning and scaling heading into a full release while offering players regularly. The in-game store will be closed until the launch of the full game.
About “Warhammer 40,000: Darktide”
Following Fatshark’s best-selling and award-winning “Vermintide” franchise, the highly-anticipated “Warhammer 40,000: Darktide” is an intense 4-player co-op action game set in the hive city of Tertium. Fight together with your friends against hordes of enemies in this new “Warhammer 40,000” experience. Since “Darktide” was announced, it has been a permanent fixture on the Steam Top 10 for most Wishlisted games. Available November 30 on PC. The release date for Xbox Series X|S will be announced shortly.
“Running this Pre-Order Beta is our way to actively address common issues games experience at launch and also a ‘Thank You’ to our most committed fans. We know it’s been a long wait, but Darktide is finally just around the corner.” – Martin Wahlund, CEO of Fatshark
During the next two weeks, Fatshark will update players via social channels, forums, and the in-game launcher.
