    After an earlier release on other platforms, Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is now available on the PlayStation 5 and in the best possible execution. The result is an entertaining title that feels especially good thanks to its gameplay and variety of missions. The downside is that the story does not really offer depth and the gameplay unfortunately just does not manage to be engaging for long play sessions. Nevertheless, this does make the game a suitable title for nice in-between play in shorter sessions.

    Despite a catastrophic launch, Fatshark never gave up. They fixed what was not working and tuned what was. New progression systems are deep and engaging, loot and the means to obtain it is better and gameplay remains thrilling. A story of perseverance that some could take notes from.

    Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is a fantastic co-op shooter that occasionally struggles under strain. The human character models don't exactly look great, but the game delivers what matters: strong gameplay and an excellent atmosphere that's a blast to play with friends.
