Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Showcases New Zone in Cinematic Trailer for the Carnival

Celebrating the first part of the anniversary update for co-op shooter Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, developer Fatshark has released a new cinematic trailer showcasing the storyline for a new zone of Tertium introduced with the update—the Carnival.

The cinematic trailer introduces us to a host of new antagonist forces that seem to be a group of incredibly well-organised heretics, headed by someone named Wolfer. The trailer goes on to become a sort of mission briefing for players, tasking players with entering the Carnival to take on the new enemies.

The latest trailer comes just a day after the release of the first part of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide‘s anniversary update, which brought with it a host of new content, including a talent tree revamp for the Veteran class, UI tweaks to display buffs in a more intuitive manner, and balancing changes and bug fixes.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide has seen quite a bit of a resurgence thanks to a major update the game got back in October, fixing various bugs and introducing new talent trees for all playable characters.
