All Warhammer 40K: Darktide Difficulty Levels and their differences, Explained

Warhammer 40K: Darktide lets players team up for some four-player multiplayer mayhem in a new adventure set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. To survive the game, you’ll need to work together with your team and have some great communication with one another. If you still find yourself struggling, you can adjust the difficulty if the game becomes too hard or if it becomes too difficult. In this guide, we’ll explain the differences between each difficulty setting.

All Warhammer 40K: Darktide Difficulty Levels

Sedition: This the first of the five difficulty levels in Warhammer 40K: Darktide. It’s the easiest level in the game and is recommended if you want an experience with little to no challenge and want to get the hang of a certain character.

Uprising: Uprising is the second difficulty level and ups the challenge compared to Sedition. This is the perfect level to play at once you’ve gained some experience with one of the characters. Level 10 is the best place to start at with this difficulty.

Malice: This could easily be considered the normal diffuclty in Warhammer 40K: Darktide because it sits in the middle of the other four. It’s difficult but not that difficult. Playing at this level will give your character better gear and the best chance at power leveling.

Heresy: At this level, things get really difficult. A low level character won’t last playing on this difficulty. It’s better if you just play on this difficulty with a max level character if you want to have a fighting chance.

Damnation: As the last difficulty level, Damnation will require you to be at your best. It’s better if you play with a group of players who also have their characters at the max level. The benefit to playing on Damnation is that you’ll receive better rewards as a player.
