Vampire Survivors, the sport that began off the motion roguelike bullet hell craze, is evolving with a brand new title that’s “a part of the official” lineage of the style. And it’s a fairly large collab, too.
Warhammer Survivors could be considered, for all intents and functions, as a licensed sequel or growth to Vampire Survivors. It’s a standalone title that’s an official collab between Auroch Digital (Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun) and poncle, the studio behind the OG Survivors recreation.
If you see it in motion, yeah, it’s Vampire Survivors with a Warhammer twist, however that’s fairly candy by itself. Vampire Survivors spawned a ton of clones and a whole style with its addictive bullet hell success, and so to see one thing official from that recreation’s devs with a model collab as huge as Warhammer looks like a giant deal.
“Selecting from the Warhammer: 40,000 and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar universes, gamers will lead a roster of iconic characters and endure towards the swarms of relentless enemies,” the press launch stated. “Weapons and power-ups could be mixed into devastating new kinds to create screen-clearing storms of bullets, blades and magic. Experiment in each run with new methods, unlocking new characters, upgrades, weapon combos, in addition to troves of secrets and techniques and collectables ready to be found.”
Playable characters embody Boltgun hero Malum Caedo, together with the Cadian Shock Trooper, Trooper Kozlowski, and Brother Luca, whereas Age of Sigmar’s Neave Blacktalon is joined by Gotrek Gurnisson, Sharynn Azurwrath, and Stormcast Everlasting Vanquisher.
And naturally, as one would count on from Warhammer, weapons embody the Boltgun, Astartes Chainsward, Whirlwind Axes, and franchise easter eggs like “the common-or-garden pot of Citadel Nuln Oil paint.” I’m not a Warhammer man myself so I don’t know what that’s, however that sounds prefer it might be cool for followers of the IP.
Warhammer Survivors is because of launch on Steam in 2026.
