Complex Games’ Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters, an XCOM-like tactical RPG, is out now for PC. It sees the powerful Grey Knights battling against the forces of Chaos who look to spread the Bloom plague in service of Nurgle. Check out the launch trailer below to see it in action.
Like XCOM, players start out with The Baleful Edict which possesses facilities like Barracks for customizing your soldiers, an Armory for weapons, and Research for Stratagems. From there, you choose a planet but be careful. Depending on how quickly the Bloom progresses, you’ll need to make tough choices on which mission to pursue.
In terms of combat, there is cover but also plenty of opportunities for melee combat, executions, dismembering foes and even destroying the environment for tactical advantages. Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters is currently available only for PC. To see how a typical story mission plays out, head here.
