THE TRAITOR CURSE - Anniversary update coming in November!

Darktide celebrates 1 year with a free, two-part update!

To celebrate the first anniversary of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, we have prepared a two-part update called The Traitor Curse bringing more content to the game. Part 1 will release during November, Part 2 will follow before the winter holidays.

The Traitor Curse Part 1 - Features:

  • New Cinematic: Learn about the motivations of the Moebian 6th and discover The Carnival, a new disreputable zone promising transgressive distractions and entertainment.
  • New Zone & Mission: Strike at the heart of the Moebian 6th operations and fend off hordes of enemies in Mercantile located in The Carnival.
  • Inspect Feature: Inspect player loadouts in The Mourningstar.
  • Update to Veteran Talent Tree: enjoy many changes and tweaks made to the Veteran tree, including the addition of Keystones (due to these changes, Veterans will see their talent tree reset and players will have to re-assign talent points).

Part 2 will be released during December, we will make sure to come back to you with more information on the latter by the end of the month!

I mean, what are scrolls and parchments with wax seals doing too? The imperium is weird man :stuck_out_tongue:

When I play stealth zealot with a knife and throwing knives… I really like I came from warhammer fantasy and the warp just flung me 40,000 years into the future. And apparently I can still win by bringing a knife to a sci-fi gun fight.

They are purity seals, and they come primarily from the nacent faith that the Urizen, the Aurelian, was creating before the Heresy.

Will there be bug fixes too? :smiley:

I imagine a similar thing to what they’re doing in favellas. Culture does exist in hive worlds.

A batshit circus is hella 40K.
Hive cities are full of bizarre sub cultures and weird decadent entertainment.

Really, I wonder if this “carnival” will have little merry go rounds, with little horsies for the people in the hive?
