About the game:

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is a co-op-focused action game experienced from a first-person perspective. Set in the Warhammer Fantasy fictional universe, players battle cooperatively against the Chaos army and a race of rat-men known as the Skaven. The game features five different characters to play as. These characters are divided into 15 (17 with DLC, with three more planned) different careers, each with a unique set of skills and abilities. After players complete missions, they receive rewards through a randomized loot system. The base game comes with 13 missions, over 20 enemy types, and over 50 weapons.

Price:

You can find this on steam for 27,99€ or on Instant Gaming for 4,59€

My thoughts:

The graphics are great. The AI needs some polishing as well as some weapons when they hit the enemy. The loot system is fine could be improved. Classes and hero abilities seem alright.

Hopefully, the player base of the game keeps growing, this game is for me is a better version of Left4Dead.
