Vermintide is Vermintide is a co-operative action first person adventure based on Warhammer Fantasy's The End Times and developed by Fatshark. The game is slated for a Q2 2015 release for the PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
Setting
The game is set during the End Times, the apocalyptic event that's basically all hell breaking loose in the entire Warhammer world. One of those notable events are the Skaven launching a worldwide invasion on the surface world, seeking to destroy and conquer everybody who isn't a skaven. The game takes place in the Empire city of Ubersreik, which is one of the Skaven's many targets, and the players will take control of five heroes attempting to save the city from the under menace, or else be swept away by the Vermintide... Though considering the current events of The End Times, they are doomed to fail, because in the current events of the End Times, the Empire is down to only one city (which is then taken over because a certain elf stole the divine power that kept it from falling). Then to add further insult to injury, the final End Times campaign book has the Warhammer world destroyed, making whatever great achievements the players get utterly pointless.
Gameplay
The game is stated to be just like Left 4 Dead. As you can expect, the Skaven are basically like the infected. The regular Skaven use zerg rush tactics, and attempt to swarm over the players with their huge numbers, though they are very weak and will go down easily. They will also serve as distractions for specialist Skaven units like the Ratling Gunners, the Poison Wind Globadiers and Rat Orgres to name of few.
Players will take control of five heroes:
- Victor Saltzpyre, a Witch Hunter
- Sienna Fuegonasus, a Bright Wizard
- Markus Kruber, an Empire Soldier
- Kerillian, a Wood Elf Waywatcher
- Bardin Goreksson, a Dwarven Ranger
Each have their own strength and weaknesses. For instance, the Bright Wizard can use devastating fire spells and doesn't have a limit of how many times she uses them, but overusing her powers without taking a break will cause her to damage herself.
Also, It better have fucking doomwheel as a boss or is not worth buying!DOOMWHEEL!!
