Warhammer 40’000

I quite like Warhammer. I quite like video games. Naturally, when Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 was announced, my head almost exploded from the sheer hype and anticipation (Yes, I was, and still am a grown man). This was back in 2021,…

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide has just had a brand new face let loose on its dismal, lawless world and who better to bring that law back into the light than the Emperor’s lawbringers: The Adeptus Arbites.  Arbites, for those unfamiliar, are…

From the very first moment that Space Marine II boots, you can feel the crushing weight of the Warhammer 40k lore bearing down upon you.  We’ve seen the quote “in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war” so many times now…

Welcome to the 41st Millenium, Trader! Do you like war? No? Well that's too bad because there's a LOT of it. Okay, first things first, I am utterly and unapologetically enthusiastic about the universe of Warhammer 40,000. I think it’s an…

In terms of units, there’s a solid array of choices, but as with the other DLC packs, there are some notable exceptions. You have your mainstay Fire Warriors and Crisis Suits as you’d expect, plus the sneaky Ghostkeel and Stealth Suits with…

I must admit that I’ve lost interest in Warhammer over the past ten or fifteen years — mainly because the rank-and-file gameplay of “classic” Warhammer Fantasy was more my cup of tea than the squad-based skirmishes that have replaced it.…

Warhammer 40,000 has gone a surprising amount of time since it was last pivoted into a gore-soaked boomer shooter, but Boltgun has more than made up for it, as one of perhaps the most obvious adaptations of the universe, but also one of the…

Most of the units you can play with here are already present in the incursion mode that was added to the base game some time ago, with only the somewhat underwhelming for the points cost Daemon Prince being a new unit. Even with that, there…

Whilst there are a few other units for you to choose from here, I feel that there are a few really missed opportunities. I certainly wouldn’t expect every model from the tabletop to be included, but the lack of Squighog Boyz feels like a…

The Sisters of Battle have already appeared in Battlesector as part of the main Blood Angels campaign, though their time in the spotlight was incredibly underwhelming, being fairly weak compared to the storyline’s main faction. Any concerns…

After having more than a few lukewarm experiences with the Warhammer gaming library recently, I’d resigned myself to thinking I'd likely not see a great game in the universe for a while. That's until I got my hands on Warhammer 40K: Chaos…

Apart from the intricate, almost complicated lore associated with Warhammer and its various splinter stories; its known for legendary battles between its various factions. Tempestfall throws you in fairly quickly and its key to note that…

2021 has been another wild year, with the world still mostly on fire and everything being terrible. But you know what hasn’t been terrible? Some of the games I’ve managed to play during the last 12 months. Whilst I haven’t played as much in…

I like to think that reviewers such as myself keep an open mind. After all, games are very rarely made by people who don’t care about the subject matter — especially not when you’re talking about independent games that are created outside…

Yes, I’m reviewing another Warhammer game. Having now played the miniature’s, video games and a few spin-offs, I feel fairly qualified to talk about these games and the IP. When I had the chance to play the mobile port of Warhammer 40K:…

For an Xbox Series X optimized release its both buttery smooth with no recognisable slowdown even when the Chaos horde mob can reach upward of 50 enemies on screen at any time with multiple player characters in co-op
