In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war. For the devotees of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, the latest update to the boomer shooter Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun offers an opportunity to continue this relentless purge. On June 18, 2024, Auroch Digital and Focus Entertainment will unleash the Forges of Corruption DLC, expanding the game’s already ferocious repertoire of chaos and carnage.
New Enemies and Weapons to Face the Tides of Chaos
The world of Graia trembles under the corrupting influence of Chaos, and with the arrival of the Forges of Corruption DLC, players will confront new, formidable adversaries. The Helbrute, a grotesque amalgamation of flesh and metal, stomps onto the battlefield, its fury matched only by its devastating firepower. The Havoc, armed with heavy weaponry, will test even the most battle-hardened Space Marines. And then there’s the Terminator, a behemoth encased in Tactical Dreadnought Armor, whose presence alone can turn the tide of battle.
To counter these new threats, players will wield new weapons blessed by the Omnissiah. The Missile Launcher delivers explosive justice, capable of obliterating foes in a single, earth-shaking blast. The Multi-Melta, a trusted weapon of the Sisters of Battle, disintegrates enemies with a searing beam of heat. These tools of war will be essential for any Ultramarine seeking to cleanse the world of Graia from the taint of Chaos.
Forges of Corruption Edition: The Complete Experience
For newcomers to the eternal war, the Forges of Corruption Edition offers an all-in-one package. This edition includes both the base game and the new DLC, providing the full spectrum of Boltgun’s grimdark mayhem at a reduced price. There has never been a better time to join the ranks of the Emperor’s chosen and take up arms against the heretical scourge.
Free Horde Mode and Quality of Life Improvements
But the updates don’t end with the DLC. On June 18, all players will gain access to a new Horde mode, a relentless test of endurance against waves of enemies. This mode features four difficulty levels, each promising its own set of achievements to earn. How long can you survive the onslaught?
Additionally, a navigation guide will be implemented, aiding Ultramarines as they navigate the treacherous landscapes and labyrinthine levels. This feature, along with numerous bug fixes and quality of life improvements, ensures that the path to victory is clear – if not easy.
The Voice of Malum Caedo and the Warhammer Skulls 2024 Showcase
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun has been a popular addition to the franchise since its release in May 2023. Its main character, Malum Caedo, voiced by Rahul Kohli, embodies the relentless spirit of the Space Marines. Kohli, who also hosted the Warhammer Skulls 2024 showcase, brought this exciting news to the community, sharing a stage with numerous other announcements from the Warhammer video game universe.
Prepare for the Purge
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun is lauded for its nostalgic, Doom-inspired gameplay, boasting a 9/10 rating on Steam from over 10,000 reviews. As June 18 approaches, the anticipation among fans is palpable. The Forces of Corruption DLC and the free updates promise to elevate the game to new heights of grimdark glory.
Sharpen your chainsword, load your boltgun, and steel yourself for the oncoming storm. The heretics are many, but your resolve must be unyielding. For the Emperor! For Graia! Prepare to purge once more.
