Hello Varlets - and new people who have no idea what a varlet is!

Darktide has been out for almost 2 years (will turn 2 in December) and has seen a pretty huge transformation since it launched.

After undergoing so many updates and patches, I think its about time to give it an up-to-date review so that curious gamers who might be considering getting this game - especially when its on sale, can have a better idea on what they are getting themselves into!

In this video, I'll bring you through all good, the great, and the bad that makes up Darktide. And with that knowledge in mind, hopefully you can come to a decision about whether this game will be for you!
