New Video Game: Space Hulk Deathwing


A Promo Poster for SH:DW
It seems there's yet another 40k video game in the works. Displayed here is the promotional poster for Space Hulk: Deathwing. It's being developed by a French studio called Streumon Studio. They've already garnered some attention for their game EYE: Divine Cybermancy and definitely have the 40k look down.


 Here is the article announcing the game after being translated from the French site that reported it. If you speak French, or just want to have a look, you can check them out by clicking right here.

 Via GameKult:
"This is probably an ad that Focus reserved for gamescom, before perhaps change his mind: Space Hulk: Deathwing , an FPS in the claustrophobic world of Games Workshop, is currently in development at Streumon Studio ( EYE: Divine Cybermancy ).
The info, lost in the press release issued by the French publisher at gamescom, comes with some details.It will play a Librarian, encased in his Terminator armor and of course a member of the company Deathwing. It has at its disposal four trees of different skills and can use various powers. Of course, the goal will be to survey the Space Hulk looking for relics, under the constant threat of Genestealers, multi-arm able to outflank a squad yet in place in a few seconds these monsters. The game, which runs on Unreal Engine 4 is published by Focus and due out next year."

So it would seem we can look forward to Space Hulk Deathwing sometime next year.

    I'm sure that the Unreal 4 engine is pretty cheap to license nowadays. That being said, modern video cards can make older engines look a lot better than when they came out.

    I'm hoping for the best parts of Alien vs Predator, but in a 40k setting. :)

    And by the way, who the hell are those sinister looking guys in the black armor with the gold trim? What do they have to do with the Deathwing or Genestealers?

    My apologies. I put something down that implied it, but I should have labeled the photo. It's a screenshot of characters from their game, EYE. Just trying to show that they have the GRIMDARK look of the 41st millennium, down. :)
