The datamining, as with many rumors and leaks before The Game Awards, turned out true: Creative Assembly is venturing into the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Check out the first trailer for Total War: Warhammer 40,000.
If youโve played any of the Dawn of War titles, this will look very familiar. Space Marines battling against Orks with tanks colliding against Stompas, and itโs not long before the Imperium of Man brings orbital lasers into the fray. Several worlds are showcased with war raging throughout the system, and suffice it to say that diplomacy might not be much of an option.
A brief look at pre-alpha in-engine gameplay highlighted the various battles taking place on a massive scale alongside the various Chapters players can control. Itโs also worth noting that two more factions โ Aeldari and Astra Militarum โ are also included.
Total War: Warhammer 40,000 doesnโt have a release date, but itโs coming to PC, Xbox Series X/S and PS5.
