Heroes, you’ll be able to pre-order Winds of Magic today, and get instant access to the beta up to release on August 13. No time to waste, be ready to pre-order at 7PM CEST, there are Beastmen to be dealt with.

The first expansion for Warhammer: Vermintide 2 brings a brand new enemy faction and new challenges to the game. As a meteor crashes down in the Reikland, the Beastmen rush to the epicenter to claim it as a Herdstone. It is up to the five heroes to stop them before a dreadful disaster strikes the Empire.

Join us on Stream

From 5PM where we play Winds of Magic and talk about the expansion, and play it!

The beta will run on live version 2.0, which will be released at 7pm CEST as well.

@Fatshark_Hedge Is this the remastered version? Which will require a new download of the entire game? Also, file size? I want to make space on my SSD XD

I will be pre-ordering as well XD Me mum is flying over to visit from the Caribbean on the 10th, so I gotta get my games in now not to mention the wife is going to London on the 20th, so I’ll be stuck watching the kids 24/7.

I wouldn’t really call this a pre-order, it’s interesting wording that they have used. It’s basically 1 week early access. Buying it today gives you instant access to the game and all progress carries over to the “live” version on the 13th. At least that’s what I’ve read. I’m guessing there will br a patch at the end to fix any bugs the Test team might have missed.

It is remastered. Download size was around 40gb if I recall. I believe the end result of the remaster including WoM is 10GB smaller on disk than the currently live version. Numbers are estimates.

Confirmed.

I will publish patch notes in around 10 minutes.

You just need to patch the game bud, the beta works concurrently with the live game provided you have pre-ordered.
