Hello Everyone,
My name is Kitefin and I am super excited to be joining the Darktide community as a community manager! A little bit about me: I’ve worked in games for a few years now in community and influencer management for various titles. I’m really into simulation, RPG and building games in my spare time, but have been known to dip my toes into any genre really. Except horror I am too much of a baby for that. I’ve been creeping in the background for a few weeks now, training in the Mourningstar and making my friends come and save me every time I get bullied downed by Crushers in Mortis Trials. I started playing as a Pskyer but found it a bit too squishy so I have been throwing rocks and grenades as an Ogryn and feeling big an’ strong. The incredible StrawHat has taken me under her fin to help get me trained up and ready to meet you all properly, and you might have caught me lurking about in the Dev stream last week 👀! I am still learning a lot about Warhammer and the lore so plea... Read more

Hey Everyone,  As promised, I’m here to give some details about Havoc and the derank system. In Nightmares & Visions, we changed how derank worked in Havoc. Previously, only the owner of an Assignment would lose a charge if they lost with a team. After the update, we made it so everyone faced the same risk. We read the feedback and how this feels punishing, especially how it prevents players from wanting to assist others or accept randoms into their parties. Here is what we decided to do. Players will only be eligible to derank if they stand to gain something from it. 

• A player of higher rank will not lose a charge upon being a participant in a lower ranked mission that failed.

Dev Note: We want to promote higher ranked players helping out in the lower ranks. 

• Rank 40 players will not be able to lose a charge through gameplay means at all.

Dev Note: The only way a 40 player will be susceptible to charge loss is thus by manually using the demote button, rank decay, or during a Campaign res... Read more

Hey Everyone, Hotfix #64 (1.7.2) is currently rolling out across our platforms. In the meantime, you can read the notes below. General Fixes

• Fixed instances of small amounts of analogue stick movement taking control over mouse and keyboard.
  
• Fixed implementation of dead zone threshold on the right gamepad stick.

Dev Note (added 2 April): To get the exact same behaviour as pre-Nightmares & Visions patch, playres can set the dead zone threshold to 0.24. This will mirror the dead zone with how it felt at 0 before.

• Fix for a crash that may occur while presenting the Havoc information at the end of the mission screen.
  
• Fixed a bug where Assail Shards were not visible when spectating another player.
  
• Fixed an issue where aimed Assail shards lost their target after throwing them.
  
• Available Mastery points are now evaluated against the total amount of points needed to acquire all blessings. The player may still hold more points than needed, but the UI will not acknowledge it and show 0 as the ...

Hey Everyone,
One of our favourite times of year: releasing a new update for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide…Nightmares & Visions has already begun to roll out across our platforms. Keep reading to see what’s waiting for you on the Mourningstar.We are trying something new with patch notes. From now on, we’ll be listing the patch notes in FULL on our website ONLY. This is because as the game grows, it’s often between 40-50 pages each major update. When trying to format these across three platforms (each with their own formatting)...please think of our poor CM. (Yes, I wrote this. - Straw) You can read about the rest of the update on our website.[fatshark.games]
Mortis Trials Sefoni has a new challenge for you, rejects. The Theatres of Mortification contain the Mortis Trials. A fiendish new addition to Sefoni's training regime. Enter the Psykhanium and Sefoni will pit you against waves of enemies, but she'll also provide what she calls Indulgences (ability enhancements well beyond the p... Read more

Hello Everyone! 
As promised, we are back this week with another dev blog for the next update for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide - Nightmares & Visions, which releases next week on March 25, 2025. This week, we’re focusing on new content coming to the game in the form of Mortis Trials. This feature has been designed to be a unique, replayable activity whereby players will mash through waves of enemies in visions induced by Sefoni, the Mourningstar’s mysterious Psyker. With the arrival of Commissar’s Moebian 53rd and the escalation of the Battle for Tertium, Rannick has grudgingly decided that they need to step up the Rejects’ training regime from, well, nothing, to something. With resources tight and the warband’s operatives more than a little… varied in their approach to combat, he and Morrow have turned the matter over to Sefoni. Which makes sense, given that she’s the creator and maintainer of the Mourningstar’s Meat Grinder - a psychically generated oubliette where Rejects can familia... Read more
