[2020] Patch 2.2 - Chapter 2 of the Curse of Drachenfels is out now

Heroes,

From today you can play the second chapter of The Curse of Drachenfels update, Blood in Darkness , on PC. This update is part of Season 2 and is free for all owners of Warhammer: Vermintide 2, and consists of 3 new missions in total. The final chapter is aimed to be released in March. You can find more information about Season 2 here.

Lohner has received a new shipment and you can now find an increased stock in Lohner’s Emporium of Wonders purchasable with shillings.

With the release of Chapter 2 the Year of the Rat even ‘Rat infestation’ has come to an end, and we hope that you enjoyed it.

DOWN WE GO. MIND YOUR HEADS, DAWRI!

As knocking on the front door was not an option the Ubersreik 4… or 5… doesn’t matter, opted for another route.

DESOLATE… AND SMELLY. I HATE IT.

It has been said that the Castle has a will and a personality of its own. Only the foolish dares entering the Castle, and some apparently does so willingly, twice!

2.2.0.1

---- removes deprecated Dark Omens challenges from Okri’s book

Wooo! Gonna start downloading it now, though I’ll probably be unable to play it until tonight. Can’t wait!

Not a mistake in the traditional sense, but certainly could use some revision in hindsight.

Thanks for your feedback folks. In a lot of ways, we are on board here and agree we need to look at this another time. For now, we will remove those hats from the emporium and introduce 5 different weapon illusions in their place. This should happen in the coming hour or two.

Anyone who has purchased a hat will be in a unique position for a short time whilst we work to refund the purchase and remove the item ahead of reintroducing it/them in a future update at a revised cost.
