Karak Azgaraz is a free new content update coming on June 13th to PC, containing three fan-favorite maps, newly remastered and updated for Warhammer: Vermintide 2.

That's right, Lohner is sending you back to Khazid Kro to help a struggling dwarf war party sabotage the Skaven army. You're going to have to traverse through the Dwarfen stronghold once more and turn the tide in your favour by collapsing the invasion tunnels. Once done, light the beacons and signal Karak Azgaraz to mount their counterattack and foil the Pactsworn’s devious plans!
  • Three remastered levels to explore - Revisit Khazid Kro in three fan-favorite adventure maps, remastered specifically for Warhammer: Vermintide 2.
  • New Okri’s Challenges & rewards - Challenge yourself with new Okri’s Challenges and show your accomplishments with new Keep paintings and animated portrait frames.
  • A free update for Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Karak Azgaraz is a free adventure campaign update for all owners of Warhammer: Vermintide 2.
