Mortis Trials are a new, replayable activity in Darktide where players face waves of enemies in dynamic arenas, offering unique challenges and stacking buffs.
Players select a difficulty level, choose an indulgence archetype, and battle through 12 waves of enemies—with periodic objectives and power-boosting buffs—before returning to Sefoni’s Reverie.
The trials feature five distinct archetypes—Pyrokinetic, Voltaic, Fulminator, Death Dealer, and Colossus—each providing specialized combat advantages.
Before and during trials, players receive tailored buffs based on the chosen archetype, with additional multipliers and enhanced abilities after completing objective waves.
The immersive narrative, driven by Sefoni’s mysterious past and her hidden knowledge of the warband, adds depth to the trials, offering insights and secrets that enrich the overall game experience.
Mortis Trials are more than just a test of combat—they are a gateway into the hidden lore of Darktide. Crafted by Sefoni, these trials weave together the grim realities of the Mourningstar and the secrets that even the high-ranking Rejects dare not uncover. As you progress, fragments of Sefoni’s past and forbidden insights into the warband’s history begin to emerge. Her secretive nature, combined with the pressures of generating these trials, means that every victory not only brings you closer to becoming a Mortis Operative but also unveils layers of mystery that could change the balance of power within the warband. Prepare to learn more than you bargained for, as the price of knowledge in these trials can be as steep as the cost of failure.
