The Forsaken Temple: FREE New Map releasing next week!

An ancient Elven temple overrun by Skaven. What could possibly go wrong?


Heroes!

We’ve been teasing it for a while now, but it’s finally time to reveal the next step in the Ubersreik 5’s adventure! The first of three missions in the new Verminous Dreams campaign, ‘The Forsaken Temple’ is coming out next week, free on all platforms!

The Forsaken Temple

Devoted readers of Lohner’s Chronicles (spying on someone’s personal journal is very rude, by the way) would know that dear Franz was recently visited by an Elf of the Divine persuasion, who gave him a cryptic warning of things to come.

While he never spoke a word about this to our Heroes, his investigations nonetheless led him to uncover hints of Skaven presence in the ruins of what could be an ancient and even mythical Elven temple: Athel Lithri.

Whatever it is that the Pactsworn plan to do with that temple, it can’t be anything good. Time for our Heroes to take a peek and hopefully put a swift end to any verminous schemes going on there.

New upcoming Premium Hero Cosmetics: The Mythical Masquerade

Just in time for the new adventure, Lohner got a glorious shipment of new outfits and hats, all inspired by some of the most iconic characters from Warhammer Fantasy!

  • Bardin and Kruber get to pair up as an iconic duo, wearing vestments inspired by Gotrek Gurnisson and Felix Jaeger! These hero skins and hats are equipable on Bardin’s Slayer career and Kruber’s Mercenary career, respectively.
  • Proving that he ALSO can sport a magnificent beard, the imposing Count Boris Todbringer-inspired hero skin and hat are equipable by Saltzpyre’s Bounty Hunter career.
  • Delving into mysticism, Kerillian has access to an outfit inspired by Naieth the Prophetess, equipable on all of Kerillian’s careers.
  • With a sudden propensity for walking around with a cup of wine (at least, we think it’s wine!), Sienna gets a new regal look with this armour inspired by Isabella Von Carstein. This hero skin and hat are equipable on her Pyromancer and Necromancer careers.

Awesome! Let’s hope that the new map will be properly optimized performance-wise, and balanced so its challenge will be as rewarding as it will be demanding.

Please make the Todbringer skin also a Zealot skin, for the many years of Toddy Memes!

Knowing Todbringer and what he did and how he died… shouldn’t his skin have been a Zealot?

I never thought I’d see the day (outside of warrior priest) that Saltzpyre would be wearing full plate armor, as bounty hunter no less lmao

Vermintide is the gift that keeps on giving. Probably the best investment I’ve ever done on Steam. :slight_smile:

There’s really no respect left to the Warhammer lore with all these cosplay skins pouring in. Imagine the amount of awesome looking and original (not to mention less lore breaking) appeareces we could have with all the different unit types and artworks both existing and new.

It’s really sad to see the game character art devolve this way.

Why do you think this wouldnt reach console? O_O

New stuff always been added, even if with a Sony/Microsoft promted delay, no?

Versus is thus far the only exception to the rule to needing more “gas” than the lil boxes can stably provide due to the baseline framework as i understand it. Wasnt built for it causing the drain to be too high.

With all due respect, i think that, the new skin for Kruber’s Merc career looks more like Boris Todbringer and the Bounty Hunter skin looks more like Felix Jaeger.
