The Tower of Treachery DLC, otherwise knowns as Patch 4.9 and the second part of A Treacherous Adventure, is now available as a free update for Warhammer: Vermintide 2.

The cosmetics will be available as separate items or in bundles, which are as follows:

  • The Belegar Ironhammer collection 
  • The Alarielle the Radiant collection 
  • The Louen Leoncouer collection 
  • The Thyrus Gormann collection
  • The Luthor Huss collection 

In addition, the free Tower of Treachery DLC introduces a menu where players may view previous cinematics, as well as quality-of-life updates to the crafting menu, where players can now sort (based on rarity or power), filter on rarities, and search for keywords.
