, and was developed in partnership with poncle (Luca Galante), the creator of the much-loved fast-paced rogue-like. Indeed, Warhammer Survivors uses poncle’s Vampire Survivors engine.

Warhammer Survivors lets you play as characters from both Warhammer 40,000 (the grimdark far future one) and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar (the fantasy one), and, this being a Survivors game, tasks you with destroying endless swarms of enemies in ‘pixel-vomit’ gameplay. It’s due out in 2026, developed and published by Auroch Digital (Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun).

Here’s the official blurb:

Endorsed as part of the official Survivors lineage, this standalone game brings familiar tides of endless enemies with fresh twists, iconic characters, and powerful weapons, packaged in an entirely new setting. Or should we say, settings! Choosing from the Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar universes, players will lead a roster of iconic characters and endure against the swarms of relentless enemies. Weapons and power-ups can be combined into devastating new forms to create screen-clearing storms of bullets, blades and magic. Experiment in every run with new strategies, unlocking new characters, upgrades, weapon combinations, as well as troves of secrets and collectables waiting to be discovered. On the 40K side, playable characters include Malum Caedo, the hero from Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, Cadian Shock Trooper, Trooper Kozlowski, and the Space Marine Intercessor, Brother Luca, who face off against the Tyranid swarm.

Age of Sigmar has Neave Blacktalon, warrior of the God-King Sigmar, Gotrek Gurnisson, and Sharynn Azurwrath, Stormcast Eternal Vanquisher, armed with a Celestial Greatsword. They’re up against the Skaven.

Warhammer Survivors features:

• Fast and frantic Survivors gameplay.
• A roster of iconic characters from the Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar universes, featuring Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun’s very own Malum Caedo!
• Multiple modes and stages from across the grimdark 41st Millennium and the Mortal Realms.
• An arsenal of familiar weapons, such as the Boltgun, Astartes Chainsword, Whirlwind Axes, and ​​glorious​ easter eggs such as ​the humble pot of Citadel Nuln Oil paint.
• A mighty cache of passives and power-ups to aid in enduring against the monstrous legions.
• Esoteric secrets and easter eggs to uncover and collectables to collect!
• ...and much more still to be announced!

As I mentioned, Warhammer Survivors joins the ever-growing list of cool-looking Warhammer video games set to come out over the course of the next few years. There’s
