Our Warhammer retrospective continues onward into the future.
Yesterday, we laid out all the current games you could pick up set in the Warhammer fantasy and Warhammer 40,000 universes. If for whatever reason none of those tickled your fancy, then perhaps the forthcoming game adaptations - many of which are running off the Unreal Engine 4 and coming for next-gen consoles - can get you excited.
Games like:
Battlefleet Gothic: Armada [PC] - if ever a game will get people into Warhammer 40,000, this could be the one. Armada eschews the traditional turn based strategy for a more real time feel, but the guys over at Rock, Paper, Shotgun don't see that as a bad thing. The stunningly beautiful game will feature four factions and a near unlimited amount of leveling progression for the many, many ships of your fleet. All of it powered by the wonders of (the now free) Unreal Engine 4. No release date set, but we hope it hits soon.
Warhammer 40,000: Dark Nexus Arena [PC] - it was inevitable that Warhammer would be redone as a MOBA. The game, due out in Q2 of this year, is a blend of twin-stick shooters and the Multiplayer Online Battle Arena, an intriguing combination if ever there was one. You can sign up for early access at the official site. Check out the trailer.
Warhammer 40,000: Eternal Crusade [PC] - after Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning was shuttered, Square Enix swooped in and will be filling the gap in the Warhammer MMO market. Eternal Crusade is a limited free-to-play 3rd person shooter title - but you can only play one of a select number of classes and races. There will be plenty of in-game purchases available. No word on a release date, but should be out sometime in 2015. Head over to the official site to pre-order the Founder's Pack.
Total War Warhammer: tease
Warhammer endures. The combined twenty-odd titles ought to keep you busy nearly every moment of the day, should you wish. So, which ones do you play? Which ones are you really looking forward to? Tell us in the comments! We'll keep this updated as more games are - inevitably - announced.
