A very simple and hugely repeated gameplay mechanics but an overall fun multiplayer experience that still takes a lot from the first one and needs more content

Although the game is far from perfect in its current state, it's able to present a unique experience on a shaky foundation that will keep players entertained.

Vermintide 2 improves pretty much every aspect of its predecessor, except the one which matters the most, loot variety and vertical progression. Enjoyable in short bursts, but lacks longevity at the moment.

Like comfort food for the hack and slash enthusiast, Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is supported ably by its co-op action. Loot/progression dynamics, the odd few bugs and some repetitive action aside, it does warrant a closer look.

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is good game – nothing more and nothing less. It provides tons of fun and enters the “co-op hall of fame” without looking back. Unfortunately I can’t shake off the feeling that the release was a bit rushed; the game arguably feels more like an Early Access version.

Even without microtransactions, loot boxes manage to spoil another potentially classic game, although the core combat and co-op atmosphere still shine through.

If grindy loot-fests aren’t your idea of a good time then the Vermintide series really isn’t for you, even if you find its melee-focused combat more appealing than the run n’ gunning of co-op shooters. That said, Vermintide 2 is a great sequel, and although there are still some niggling issues Fatshark has yet to stamp out, it’s a gloriously over-the-top, sword-swinging, spell-slinging romp packed with content and a perfect representation of this much-loved setting.

If you really like brutal fights, you don't mind occasional chaos and are looking for an interesting co-op game, Warhammer: Vermintide II can only be recommended. So what are you waiting for? Take your sword or axe and go annihilate hundreds of Skaven.

Left 4 Dead in the Warhammer: Vermintide 2 universe. It’s an engaging game and has one of the best loot box implementations around. The melee in the game as well is fantastic.

Overall, my experience with Vermintide 2 was filled with ratman genocide induced glee, only the occasional matchmaking team-up proving too much to bear with and connections being stable enough, as well to avoid having blows miss or aimed shots wasted.

Vermintide II may not introduce enough news so that we don't consider it a Vermintide 1.5, but it isn't need it, because if the formula of the first worked, the sequel does everything that made its predecessor.

This sequel is a perfect example of building from the first game’s successes while simultaneously focusing on improving where it fell short.

Vermintide 2 is available on several platforms but I really recommend going for where you'll have friends to play with. I cannot stress this enough. Playing this game with friends is truly worth it.

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is a precious title who aims for a specific type of gamers, those who are ready to sacrifice everything in order to just have fun with their friends, and that fun factor is exactly the reason why you wouldn't care about the game's problems that much.

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 improves many elements of the first episode and is a true postcard from the End Times.
