In our second level, embark through a frozen battlefield and visit an icy Imperial facility overrun with the forces of Chaos. There you’ll battle the new Khorne enemies - if you dare to break the ice!

Everything announced so far – new Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 Trailer

Since the announcement of Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 last year, we’ve been revealing a lot of the new features players can expect in Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2.

But it’s easy to miss the updates, so here is everything we’ve announced so for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2:

Steam post image

Two Playable Characters

In Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2, you will have the option to play as formidable Sternguard Veteran, Malum Caedo, or swift and nimble Sister of Battle, Nyra Veyrath.

At the beginning of the game, you’ll choose one character to play for the entire campaign. Both characters have their own unique weapons and abilities creating a vastly different gameplay experience, depending on who you play as.

Your choice will also determine whether you have Rahul Kohli or Alanah Pearce hurling insults at the heretics while enacting the Emperor’s punishment.

The Forces of Slaanesh

The Dark Prince's corruption knows no bounds, and his legions of excess march into Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2, spreading fear and misery with jovial glee!

Daemonettes, Noise Marines, and Tormentors will clash with our champions on the battlefield!

The Legions of Khorne

The Blood God’s devotees also join the fray to enact the bloody will of Khorne!

Aggressive and brutal daemons will tear through the carnage with a mixture of Bloodletters, Juggernauts, Bloodcrushers, and even more...

All Four Chaos Factions

With the introduction of the forces of Slaanesh and legions of Khorne, all four Chaos factions will be coming together in Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2!

But Malum Caedo and Nyra Veyrath will need to overcome more than the foul forces of Chaos to complete their mission...

New Demo for Warhammer Survivors

In case you didn’t know, we’re also developing another Warhammer game called Warhammer Survivors!

Developed in partnership with poncle and Warhammer, it’s time to battle for survival in the universes of Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar in all their pixelated magnificence!

The demo is out now if you want to try it for yourself!
