We are aware of a Corrupt game data crash on PlayStation that can occur either during launch, or matchmaking.
The error will appear as:
Corrupt game data.
This error could be caused by a broken install. Try to re-install the game.
(Function inflate failed with code FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFD.)
This issue is caused by a corrupted texture for some of Bardin’s handgun illusions. We recommend avoiding using Bardin’s handgun until a fix is released.
If you last played as Bardin using the handgun you may be unable to launch Vermintide 2, as Bardin will be being selected by default when connecting with the backend.

Update: Unfortunately our fix was unsuccessful, so the PlayStation update will be delayed. We’re on the case and will provide an updated ETA on this fix as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.
In the meantime, a helpful player has shared a workaround on Reddit, here.
Keep crashing on multiple maps saying “corrupt game files” something like that, I join friends and I don’t crash as much bit its still not ideal. This has all started happening since the update I have never crashed before. I don’t want to have to reinstall the game for it to still crash
Can’t even get to the Taals Horn Keep, constant crash after the loading screen. PS4, error: “Corrupt game data. This error could be caused by a broken install. Try to re-install the game. (Function “inflate” failed with code “FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFD”.)”
Hi both, sorry to hear this. Our console developers are current investigating this issue. Hopefully we’ll have a fix soon! Apologies for the inconvenience in the meantime.
We’ve identified the issue (a corrupted texture with some of the weapon skins for Bardin’s handgun, so please avoid using this weapon for now which should hopefully avoid crashing) and we’ll have a fix coming in an update soon.
Someone posted a fix on Reddit (weird Bardin bot priority thing). You’ll need a friend with uncorrupted files—reinstalling won’t help. I hope FS will fix this soon

The fix was unsuccessful, so a decision was made to release the PS update without. We’re still working to resolve this issue.
However, later today (if we don’t run into snags) we’ll be releasing a bandaid solution, which will remove the culprit weapon illusions from Bardin’s handgun for all PS players and prevent these illusions from being re-added until we have a more permanent fix in place. I’ll update here later once we’ve implemented this. Thank you for your patience.
We have now implemented a backend update for PlayStation to disable the culprit weapon illusions for Bardin’s handgun. Anyone with an illusion applied will have them unapplied, and the illusions will be temporarily unavailable until we get a more permanent fix out.
The weapon illusions that have been temporarily disabled are:
