Fatshark has announced the next DLC pack for Warhammer: Vermintide 2.
As its name implies, Back to Ubersreik will see players return to three of the levels from the original game. Each level has been remastered using the engine and graphical enhancements introduced in Vermintide 2, but they won’t be complete retreads of the originals.
Fatshark is promising that they are holding back a few surprises. You can check out the teaser above.
Here’s a rundown of the game:
Vermintide is back – darker, bloodier and more intense than ever!
Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is the sequel to the critically acclaimed Vermintide. The time has arrived to revisit the fierce first-person co-op slaughter-fest featuring visceral and ground breaking melee action, set in the apocalyptic End Times of the war-ravaged Warhammer Fantasy Battles world .
Our 5 heroes have returned to take on an even greater threat – the combined forces of a malevolent and destructive Chaos army and the swarming Skaven horde. Prepare to be challenged like never before as you and your team desperately try to survive the never-ending onslaught. Choose between 15 different careers, climb the talent trees, customize your arsenal to fit your unique play style, fight your way through a myriad of stunning levels, and challenge yourself in our new Heroic Deeds System. The only thing standing between utter defeat and victory is you and your allies. If you fall – so will the Empire.
