Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a hit, and it’s no surprise that players are having fun playing as one of the Emperor’s Angels, stomping and shooting through a fray of hungry Tyranids. One thing I didn’t expect was getting to see the setting of Warhammer 40K through the eyes of people unfamiliar with the universe. Things that are very status quo to me as a longtime fan of the franchise are intriguing and compelling to new players. Take, for instance, the tens of thousands of candles stacked around religious sites, or the bio-mechanical babies flying around on angel wings.
* **The Darkest Dungeon:** A gothic-horror RPG with roguelite elements. * **Gameplay:** Players must build a team of heroes to overcome the horrors of an ancient, monstrous fortress. * **Setting:** The game is set in a gothic, industrial, and macabre world.
The Rejects end up becoming a necessary source of recruitment when the Moebian Sixth, a group of Imperial Guards, go rogue and succumb to the influence of the Plague God Nurgle. In Darktide, parties of four are sent as strike teams all around Tertium, assigned to achieve objectives and slowly drive the heretics out of the city. I cannot praise developer Fatshark enough for the time it’s put into making the hive city feel authentic. Each level is lovingly realized, from the lower industrial levels of the city all the way up through the markets and habitation blocks to the noble quarters. The game is also from the perspective of mere, ordinary mortals; Titus can punch through obstacles and wade into hordes of enemies, but the Rejects are comparatively small and vulnerable.
