Warhammer 40,000fans that are anticipating premiumDarktidecosmeticsare among the players left waiting due to the issues impacting the game as Fatshark has also suspended that rollout. Fatshark noted that the fan comments that have already been received will “help shape"Warhammer 40,000: Darktideafter the team is able to address everything, which may be a faster process now that the studio has officially paused other aspects of development. Though Fatshark didn’t confirm new release dates or aWarhammer 40,000: Darktidecontent roadmap, the reference to a “few months” may suggest that the patches are still arriving this year.
Because the Xbox port has been delayed alongside theotherWarhammer 40,000: Darktidecontentupdates that some players were expecting, the platform should get a more optimal launch experience than PC players did. Although someWarhammer 40,000: Darktidefans may have been anticipating the premium cosmetic drops, Fatshark noted that it “couldn’t continue” with the paid add-ons before first addressing “fan feedback areas.”
