Free Update - Depths of the Damned - Coming September 29!

Descend Further Into Tertium With Warhammer 40,000: Darktide’s Upcoming Free Update - Depths of the Damned

Warband!

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.

So only one true new weapon, but other than that cool. Unless that huntsman shotgun is different.

Whoa. An actual new campaign level? Like, a normal map?
Nice.

Let’s go! It’s about time

the rations pack update is here

BUT WHERE IS THE POWER AXE THAT BETTER BE TUCKED AWAY AND HIDDEN FOR HYPE billions of heretics will die if I don’t get it fat shark. I will give you a lot of points for adding a chaos sorcerer boss though, hopefully he is disgusting and hammy with the voice lines (or she).

I hope that’s a new Indignatus mark

Yo what’s cooking?

the ogryn cruncher is new, looks like thats the big 2h ogryn hammer

ogryn thugshot, wonder if it’s like a slug version of the kickback/rumbler

Please give us a slight, sneaky nod if Sword + Shield for Zealot is in the update…

Whew! Praise the Omnissiah! I was reliably informed DT was over!!!

STOKED FOR THE NEW MAP!!!

any chance we get more modifiers added to the auric and havoc pools with this update?

so many awesome sunset event ones many players have never seen

was hoping for maybe some Zealot weps like dual wielded devil claws and some talent changes too

Cooking up straight bull penis weapons in the stu. Be nice if fatshark made weapons the community asked for. The new families are good, but the new marks of old weapons are always pointless beyond belief.

A starving man shouldn’t complain about a free meal, but come on.

More shotguns and mauls? At this point it’s Shotgun 40K: Maultide.

Very excited for the new map however.

Sounds great, can’t wait to play with all the new weapons and the new map too
