Vermintide takes place in and around Ubersreik, a city overrun by Skaven, a race of relentless rat-men. You will assume the role of one of five heroes, each featuring different play-styles, abilities, gear and personality. Working cooperatively, you must use the heroes’ individual attributes to survive an apocalyptic invasion from hordes of Skaven. Battles will take place across a range of environments stretching from the top of the Magnus Tower to the bowels of the Under Empire.
