Some mission types can also have side objectives, such as finding Grimoires or Scriptures, while others only appear on certain maps.

- Strike
- Objective: Strike missions usually require players to disrupt enemy attacks. This translates to clearing demonic growths or stopping other themed attacks.
- Disruption
- Objective: The Disruption mission tasks players with stopping various Chaos plots.
- Investigation
- Objective: Investigation missions task players with scanning various objects using a servo-skull. You can also complete an achievement by achieving a Data Interrogation without an incorrect Auspex entry.
- Espionage
- Objective: This mission is a Work In Progress as we haven't encountered this mission yet in the Beta. We imagine the objective based on the name will include feeding false information to Chaos forces.
- Assassination
- Objective: The Assassination missions revolve around killing a notable Chaos leader or target. Usually, this means there is a boss battle at the end of the mission, like Captain Henrik Turnat.
- Repair
- Objective: The Repair mission tasks players with repairing a key piece of equipment or power systems.
- Raid
- Objective: Raid missions usually have players collecting various resources from supply depots.
Overall there are a wide variety of missions to choose from in Darktide. You may not encounter some missions in either the Beta or full release, as missions are on a rotation cycle. Every hour or so, new missions with side objectives and special events will appear on the map, so check back later if there is a particular mission you want to complete. You can also complete a Penance called the Vantage point for the Sharpshooter class by playing one of each mission in the game.
