Warhammer: End Times – Vermintide Review

In spite all its rage, this Left 4 Dead-inspired co-op game is still just a rat in a cage.

By Rob Zacny

If you’re going to steal, steal from the best. That’s certainly developer Fat Shark’s approach with Warhammer: The End Times — Vermintide as it takes the Left 4 Dead formula of four-player co-op first-person slaughter and translates it from a zombie apocalypse to the Warhammer fantasy universe. But if you’re going to steal from the best, and you can’t quite match the best in execution, you have to add something special. Other than its decent loot system, Vermintide never quite makes a case for itself as something more than a reskin, and while it’s always an enjoyably hectic and bloody time, it’s very much the student, not the master.
