Thousands of players even after 6 years
Vermintide 2 was released in 2018 and has since continuously received new updates and DLCs with content. Moreover, regular events take place that keep the game fresh. According to steamcharts, between 4,000 and 6,000 players still regularly play Vermintide 2, and since the deal, even over 11,000 simultaneously.
The recent reviews for Vermintide 2 are at 77%, which corresponds to a rating of “mostly positive”. Players particularly praise the gameplay, which is heavily inspired by Left 4 Dead, but with more depth and a focus on melee combat.
In negative reviews, users criticize, among other things, the grinding required to max out characters, as well as occasional bugs. However, even here there are recommendations to at least try the game and decide for yourself.
Recently, the developers integrated a new PvP mode into the game. With this, you can rush players as slaves and try to hinder their progress in leveling. A points system decides the winner in the end.
MyMMO editor and Warhammer expert Benedict Grothaus has already tried the mode out with one of the devs and is excited – even if the playtest was not really planned: Because a developer talked to me from the side, I got a highlight at gamescom 2024
