Ahead of November release
Warhammer 40K: Darktide’s closed beta is underway, which you probably already know if you’re one of the people granted access to test the co-op shooter. If you don’t have access however, there’s still time as you can still apply and more players will be let in over the course of this weekend. You might also enjoy watching some streamers play so you have a better sense of it ahead of its release in November.
Developers Fatshark released a brief video intro to the beta:
The beta began yesterday and runs until October 16th. You can request accessover on Steam, where more players will be granted access in waves. Key drops are also enabled for certain streamers over on Twitch, if you want to hang out there and hope you get a key that way.
Darktide has been delayed several times, most recentlyback in Julywhen these tests were first announced. Ed had a chance toplay it at Gamescom thoughand found it fun, if familiar:
My suspicion is that the wave-bashing genre has not progressed, but also that it doesn’t matter. I like bashing waves with pals. Darktide is currently aiming for release on November 30th, with a base edition costing £33/€40/$40.
