THE PC GAMING SHOW
All the big reveals from our annual E3 SHOW
Fans of frantic Warhammer
shooter Vermintide 2 were well
catered for at the show too with the
reveal of Versus, a brand new PvP
mode. “Each game includes one
round of playing as the enemies and
one playing as the heroes,” said
Fatshark CEO Martin Wahlund.
And that’s just a small sample of
what the show had to offer. To watch
the whole thing, head to the PC
Gamer YouTube channel. Here you’ll
also find trailers for all the games
featured. And thanks to everyone
involved, including our excellent
hosts Sean ‘Day[9]’ Plott and Frankie
Ward, for making it all happen.
