After a successful PC launch and making its way to Xbox Series X/S, Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is finally coming to PlayStation 5 on December 3rd. Developed by Fatshark, known for the Warhammer: Vermintide series, Darktide offers a new experience as a spiritual successor to its predecessors.
Unlike the melee combat focus of the Vermintide series, Darktide emphasizes meaty gunplay in a co-op setting. Players will find themselves immersed in the hive city, facing corruption and a sinister force threatening to engulf everything in darkness. As part of the Inquisition, it’s up to you and your team to eradicate the enemy before chaos reigns supreme.
Eurogamer’s Chris Tapsell praised Darktide for its incredible atmosphere and intense action upon its PC release. Despite some initial launch problems, the game managed to captivate players with its grimdark violence and overall scale. The PlayStation 5 version will be available for £32.99 on the PlayStation Store, with a 10% discount for PlayStation Plus members, bringing the price down to £29.69. Pre-ordering the game grants early access, allowing players to dive into the action six days before the official release date.
With the arrival of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide on PlayStation 5, fans of the series can look forward to an intense co-op experience filled with challenging gameplay and a dark, immersive atmosphere. Prepare to join forces with your friends, root out the enemy forces, and save the city from falling into chaos. Get ready to experience the thrill of Darktide’s gunplay and take on the mysterious new threat lurking in the shadows. Don’t miss out on the chance to be part of this epic battle for the fate of the hive city.
