Warhammer 40K Action-RPG announced for PC and consoles

Warhammer 40000 inquisitor martyr

I really like NeocoreGames. In fact, I’m such a fan of their games that I keep playing them, even though they continually crash on Mac – Deathtrap and Van Helsing offer hours of fun gameplay that surmounts my frustrations with shoddy optimization on Mac. Now people might finally see why I love what Neocore does; they’re making Warhammer 40k Inquisitor – Martyr.

Here is the sexy teaser reveal:

The Hungarian studio describes the game as a persistent sandbox ARPG with a single player campaign that thrusts players “into a grim and secret war among the stars as the agents of the ever-vigilant Inquisition.”. Even after the campaign ends, the story will continue in a huge sandbox game that will give players “years of constant entertainment, gradual development and a continuous flow of content that enriches the action-RPG gameplay.” Producer Zoltán Pozsonyi explained:

There’s a reason why we chose the world of Warhammer 40,000: it’s intense, brutal, visceral – a perfect material for an action RPG. Working with Games Workshop, we’re doing our best to bring a high quality game to the community. We’re huge fans as well, so we care deeply about this game.

I know that Neocore can make fun ARPGs; I’ve seen them do it with Van Helsing. Warhammer 40k has awesome source material to work with, as well as a loyal fan base. This might be exactly the Warhammer 40k game that people have been hoping for. Inquisition – Martyr will be coming in 2016 to PC, Mac, Xbox One and PS4. I just hope that the studio gets some help with their ports – people will be very sad if the PS4 version of this game is similar to the Mac versions of their other games. Still, I’m excited for this and can’t wait to see how it turns out.

      I could not play Diablo 3 or Torchlight. Played demo on Xbox, was bored, almost instantly. Dunno. But perhaps War-hammer 40K sitting would be cool

      I just want more Dawn of War 1. Clever ideas in that game, casually tossed away in 2. While I love most of Total War games (if I have 70 hours to kill to get somewhere at all, that is), but…… feeling uneasy about that.

        If I was playing them solo neither would have I but I finished them both with my Brother:) but it does get boring fairly quickly as those games are just endless grind in dungeons however as you said if it’s in Warhammer universe it could be fun:)

        AH man Dawn of War 1 was soooo awesome besides that last expansion when they added flying units did not like that! 2 was ok very different then 1 my main issue with it was a lack of story campaign was terrible!

        The horror!
        Hehe.
        I love Torchlight. It’s excellent. Lack of controller support on pc sucks though.
        Dawn of War 1 was brilliant thought.

          In that case, you need to be watched closely for any signs of chaotic influence.

    So, fo those wanting to join this site:

    What is the best website in the world?
    First Attempt. http://www.gamerknot.com – Wrong answer
    4 attempts
    Various spelling of http://www.lazygamer.net. – full URL, not full, blah, blah.

    Too much effort now. Was cute, asking that questions but then to keep on not allowing me to register? Too much effort.

      You certainly can. Knowing the lore just adds to its enjoyment, that’s all.

      Dawn of War 1. All of them. Try it. Cheap on Steam, I played them all again in December. Playable today.

      First one, before the expansions, is the best, but all have merit,
