HELLDIVERS 2 Could Hold the Key to the Warhammer Game We Really Want
GameOn Magazine|Issue 176 - July 2024
I recently started playing HELLDIVERS 2, and, while it has become something of an obsession, I had a thought: I was playing as an underequipped, undertrained recruit of a vaguely sinister regime against hordes of alien enemies. I was, in essence, an imperial guardsman.

HELLDIVERS 2 Could Hold the Key to the Warhammer Game We Really Want

Joshua wants more Warhammer

As I kept playing, I started to see it more and more, seeing the Automatons as Necrons and the bugs as Tyranids. However, instead of wondering why this game was copying Warhammer 40,000 (it isn’t), why hasn’t a 40K game like this been created yet

If you have never really looked into the history of Warhammer video games, then let me tell you, it is a quagmire. The series has seen everything from the semi-tactical Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War to the third-person action of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine. There has even been the odd team based shooter in the form of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. However, while Dark Tide was fun, it didn’t last as it lacked the necessary reason to keep playing. The maps were relatively static, especially when you think that the Warhammer 40K universe is massive, so being stuck on one planet seems like a waste.
