Warhammer: Vermintide 2 — Steam Gift

Buy Warhammer: Vermintide 2 — a Steam gift of Fatshark's co-op slasher

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is a four-player co-op first-person action game that Swedish studio Fatshark released on Steam on March 8, 2018. It's set in the Warhammer Fantasy universe, in and around the besieged city of Übersreik. Five heroes — mercenary Markus Kruber, elf Kerillian, dwarf slayer Bardin, witch hunter Victor Saltzpyre and wizard Sienna — hold the line against endless hordes of Skaven ratmen and the forces of Chaos. You can buy Warhammer: Vermintide 2 from us as a Steam gift: it lands straight in your library through a bot, no code to enter and no account credentials to hand over.

Melee combat and Skaven hordes: why Vermintide 2 earns its fans

Mechanically, Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is a first-person slasher: the focus is on melee with cold steel — parries, pushes and holding formation — though firearms and bows have their place too. Enemies pour in by the dozen and you can't hold them alone; the game punishes you hard for drifting away from the group. On higher difficulties it becomes a real test of coordination: someone watches the back, someone picks off special enemies, someone revives the downed. A well-drilled four feels like a single machine — and that feeling is exactly why Vermintide 2 has kept its community for years.

The career system: five heroes, dozens of playstyles

The sequel's headline feature is careers. Each of the five heroes in Warhammer: Vermintide 2 has several career classes with their own abilities, passives and style: the same character can be built as a tank, a damage dealer or support. On top of that sit a loot system with item power levels, crafting and challenges that give you reasons to replay maps over and over. A lot of content has piled up since release: over the years the game has received major expansions, seasonal events and free updates with new maps, so it's not too late to start Warhammer: Vermintide 2 now — the community is alive, and lobbies on the popular difficulties fill up without trouble.

The five Übersreik heroes: who to pick as a newcomer

Kruber is the all-rounder with solid armor and straightforward melee — the best start for a newcomer. Bardin forgives mistakes with sheer durability and holds up equally well on defense and in the thick of it. Kerillian suits those who love speed and range: bows and mobility instead of armor. Saltzpyre mixes a rapier with pistols and rewards precision, while Sienna burns hordes down with magic, always balancing on the edge of overheating. There's no "wrong" hero in Warhammer: Vermintide 2 — only a style you'll sooner or later find your match in.

Where the game lives: platforms and Steam Deck

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 launched first on PC via Steam and later reached consoles. Our listing is specifically the Steam version for PC: the gift lands in your Steam library as a complete copy. The game also runs well on Steam Deck / Linux via Proton, so a Windows machine isn't strictly required. Once you accept the gift, Warhammer: Vermintide 2 stays on your account permanently, updates automatically and picks up everyone on your Steam friends list for co-op runs.

Game vs Commercial License in the Vermintide 2 card — don't mix them up

The catalog has two positions for this game. "Game" is the full base version of Warhammer: Vermintide 2 — the thing you launch and play. The Commercial License is not a separate copy but a service package with commercial rights to use the game (monetized streams, videos, commercial use); it's bought in addition and only when actually needed. If you just want to play, pick "Game".

Receiving the Warhammer: Vermintide 2 gift step by step

Copy your invite link in Steam: Friends → Add a Friend → invite by link — and provide it together with your account region at checkout. The rest is automatic: the bot adds itself as a friend, sends Warhammer: Vermintide 2 as a gift and leaves your list after delivery. No manual accepting needed, Steam Guard isn't required, and we never ask for your account password. The gift arrives soon after payment — we don't promise hard timers.

Region and library: two checks before paying for Vermintide 2

Steam accepts the gift only under two conditions. First — your account region matches the region of the variant you bought: you can tell your region by the currency in the Steam store, so pick the lot that matches it exactly. Second — Warhammer: Vermintide 2 isn't already in the recipient's library: a gift won't apply to a game you already own, and that's the most common reason for rejection. If Steam does reject the gift, the money automatically returns to your site balance — spend it on the correct variant or anything else.

The video refund rule for Warhammer: Vermintide 2

A refund is only possible with a single continuous video: from the moment of paying for Warhammer: Vermintide 2 to the attempt to accept the gift on Steam, with no editing, splices or pauses. All other cases are non-refundable, whatever the reason.
