help Vermintide 2 FAQ
Do you only fight Skaven ratmen in Vermintide 2?
No, Vermintide 2 expands the enemy roster from the first game by introducing the Rotbloods, a Chaos faction allied with the Skaven. This means players will face heavily armored Chaos Warriors and monstrous beasts in addition to the endless hordes of Clanrats and Stormvermin.
How does the career and class system work for the characters?
The five main characters—Kruber, Kerillian, Bardin, Sienna, and Saltzpyre—each have three distinct "careers" they can choose from, functioning like subclasses. These careers drastically change your abilities, such as Bardin switching between an Ironbreaker tank, a Ranger Veteran support, and a Slayer dual-wielding melee axes.
What studio developed Vermintide 2?
Vermintide 2 was developed and published by the Swedish video game studio Fatshark. It was originally released for Windows PC in 2018, with subsequent ports arriving on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One later that same year.
Does Vermintide 2 have DLC that ties into the Warhammer End Times lore?
Yes, the game is explicitly set during the apocalyptic End Times era of the Warhammer Fantasy universe. Several DLCs, like the Shadows Over Bögenhafen expansion, add new maps that explore the Chaos corruption spreading across the Empire.
