Warhammer 40K: Darktide gets new trailer and September release date

Fatshark has had great success in recent years with Vermintide 1 & 2, both based on the Warhammer fantasy universe. For the last couple of years, the studio has been turning its attention towards the Warhammer 40,000 universe with Darktide. Following a reveal in 2020 and a delay in 2021, Warhammer 40,000: Darktide finally has a release date and a new trailer. 

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide was announced for PC and Xbox Series X/S back in 2020 – it was also announced as a major day-one release for Xbox Game Pass. Now after a couple of delays, the game finally has a 13th of September release date:

Following last year's delay, we were expecting a Spring 2022 launch window, so it appears that the delay was extended at some point. Darktide will now land right in the middle of Autumn.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is a 4-player co-op action game set in the hive city of Tertium. Expect gameplay similar to Vermintide, but with new enemies, weapons, maps and characters.

KitGuru Says: I had loads of fun with the Vermintide games, so I have high hopes for this. Will any of you be picking up Darktide in September?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
