Warhammer: Vermintide 2 has launched update 1.23 (and hotfix 1.24), so here’s everything that’s been changed and added with this update. This is a rather unique update for two reasons. First of all, as you likely noticed, this includes both Update 1.23 and Hotfix 1.24, with the latter being specifically for the PlayStation 5 version. Secondly, this update brings some vastly improved framerates and quality for the PlayStation 5 version of the game. This should help drastically for those with next-gen consoles, as 60 FPS is a game-changer. Without further adieu, here’s everything that’s been changed with Warhammer: Vermintide 2 update 1.23/hotfix 1.24!

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Update 1.23/Hotfix 1.24

Crashes

  • Fixed some miscellaneous crashes.

  • Fixed crash that would happen when a client tries to lift an AI unit with the Lifestaff that has already been despawned on the server.

  • Fixed a crash that could occur if a player somehow tried to join a lobby as “Prologue Kruber”.

  • Fixed a crash caused by changing skin on melee weapon equipped in ranged slot.

  • Fixed a crash that could occur if a terror event was spawned as a level was being unloaded.

  • Fixed crash caused when SotT gets despawned (dies or leave the game) before a placed Thorn Wall expires.

  • Fixed a crash that could occur if an enemy highlighted by Kerillian’s Trueshot activated ability was killed by another source.

Heroes and Weapons

  • Fixed some Javelin melee attacks counting as ranged kills

  • Fixed Rapier special sidearm shots counting as melee kills.

  • Fixed Javelin automatically issuing a light attack after a charged attack if player has high attack speed.

  • Fixed Bounty Hunter’s ‘Just Rewards’ not working when the ranged crit is triggered with the ‘Locked and Loaded’ ability itself.

  • Bounty Hunter’s career ability animation now scales properly with speed buffs.

  • Saltzpyre should no longer get stuck in aiming (third person) after shooting with the crossbow.

  • Fixed an issue where Sienna would remain fully slowed despite having vented to below the threshold.

  • Fixed an issue where the Trollhammer Torpedo showing the ammunition when out of ammo.

  • Fixed a minor animation issue on Kerillian’s Greatsword where transitioning from light attack hit to heavy charge would cause a frame flickering.

  • Fixed a minor animation issue where a nocked Arrow could become misaligned with a bow.

  • Fixed an animation bug where Kerillian got stuck aiming with her bows (third person) if shooting too fast.

General

  • Fixed an issue where breakable planks/blockades would still be impassable for players who hotjoin a map, despite the party having already broke them, rendering the now joined player stuck further back in a level.

UI/UX

  • Fixed some Shade items which were presented incorrectly in Lohner’s Emporium of Wonders.

  • Blocked the chat window from accidentally opening when the Twitch username textbox has focus.

  • Fixed a graphical glitch in the Twitch vote UI.

  • The extra resource bars (overcharge, energy & career ability) are now displaced upwards whenever Twitch mode is active so they don’t overlap with the vote UI.

  • Changed the Okri’s challenges summary to tally claimed instead of completed challenges. This solves an issue that would show that there were incomplete challenges even though all challenges were claimed.

  • Fixed an issue where Olesya could repeat event VO once the event had ended if a player re-entered the area which triggers said VO line.
