Joe Posted Tuesday at 03:29 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:29 PM WarCom Article. Quote In Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar we’re used to hearing about single solitary heroes carving through vast hordes of enemies. We’ve all wanted to be the furious centre of that storm of combat, and it looks like we won’t need to wait longer. Soon you’ll be able to take up a boltgun or blade and face down a seemingly endless tide of enemies because we’ve partnered with Auroch Digital, makers of the retro shooter Boltgun, alongside poncle, the developers of cult hit rogue-like game Vampire Survivors, to create the upcoming Warhammer Survivors! Wasn't on my cards for a new game, but honestly a pretty great idea. Having both poncle and Auroch Digital involved is ace.

Mogger351 Posted Tuesday at 03:30 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:30 PM My money is they don't let the IPs mingle and miss a real opportunity. The trailer certainly seemed to suggest sigmar and 40k in their own little pockets.

gaurdian31 Posted Tuesday at 04:29 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:29 PM I've played a ton of Vampire Survivors, this should be great fun. Hopefully this gets a console release and has online multiplayer.

DemonGSides Posted Tuesday at 08:44 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:44 PM It is kinda crazy how you can see the Vampire Survivors DNA so obviously that this was for sure originally pitched as an expansion to the base game but GW probably had a fit over the idea of cross pollination. They detest that it much, it's crazy! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387066-warhammer-survivors/#findComment-6140338 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Reinhard Posted Tuesday at 09:12 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 09:12 PM Haven't kept up with vampire survivor's past few dlc. this is just what the doctor ordered to have me re-engage with that format of a game.

Mechanicus Tech-Support Posted Tuesday at 09:21 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 09:21 PM I saw this and couldn't help but think "Ah with megabonk now out it's time for the ultra late vampire survivor cash-in" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387066-warhammer-survivors/#findComment-6140341 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really doesn't take a big leap to think "ah cool character X could fight a Y theyd never get chance to do normally. Pad it out with some fun dialogue and the like and you're off.

I'm not seeing it. I'll bow out now but I would never want to see a Sigmarine fighting Nids or Necrons. Keep AoS out of 40K.

Magos Takatus Posted Wednesday at 01:04 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:04 AM I often like pixel art since I'm a sucker for retro titles, but this looks a little crude for my liking. These sorts of games can be fun, though. I play Temtem Swarm, which I think is in a similar ballpark, but I've not actually played Vampire Survivor., Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387066-warhammer-survivors/#findComment-6140364 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a silly arcade game, not a serious narrative, do stuff you can't normally do, like Smash Bros. why do Warhammer grognards have to always have a stick up their butt?

Felix Antipodes Posted Wednesday at 05:27 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 05:27 AM I have a lot of fun with Boltgun (I + II) but this just doesn’t appeal for some reason. Too pixilly? (Is that a word??)

Subtleknife Posted Wednesday at 10:16 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:16 AM Not my type of game, but I believe vampire survivors did well. If the GW version can do the same then that is only a good thing for the IP.
