Vermintide is a first-person shooter co-operative action adventure melee combat set in the end times of the world's iconic Warhammer Fantasy.

Vermintide takes place in and around Ubersreik, a city overrun by Skaven. You will assume the role of one of five heroes, each featuring different play styles, abilities, gear and personality. Working cooperatively, you must use their individual attributes to survive the invasion of the hordes of rat-men implacable, known as the Skaven apocalyptic. Battles will take place in a variety of environments, extending from the top of the tower of Magnus to the bowels of the Empire under.
