Warhammer 40K: Boltgun FPS Revealed With New Trailer

gamerant.com:

There are some comparisons that could be made between a Space Marine of Warhammer 40k and Doom Guy from the DOOM franchise. Both are helmeted super soldiers with enhanced strength and a love for killing demons in the goriest ways possible. With these comparisons, and the fact that Warhammer 40k features a wealth of daemons created by the various Chaos gods, it seems almost a perfect setting for a DOOM-like title. Now, fans may have it, as Warhammer 40k: Boltgun is revealed alongside a new trailer.

Boltgun's trailer begins showing what appears to be someone moving house. The camera zooms in on a box titled «Jamie's Stuff» from 1999. Opening the box, the nostalgic music swells as the unknown character opens up a box of old Space Marine and Chaos Space Marine miniatures from Warhammer 40k tabletop. After setting out their old models, the character then picks up a floppy disk, just to really let that 90s nostalgia sink in. The disk has "Boltgun" written on it, along with «confidential,» implying that this is an unreleased title from the 90s that fans are just now seeing.

Upcoming Mod Brings Classic Doom to Half-Life 2

This is likely a thematic choice from developer Auroch Digital, as the company has decided to give Boltgun a traditional graphical style similar to that of the original DOOM. There are pixelated models and textures, with a modern twist that appears to give the gameplay a much quicker feel more akin to the newer DOOM titles. The gameplay shown in the trailer is short and sweet, and sees the Space Marine protagonist taking on the villains of Warhammer 40k in the form of multiple Chaos daemons and Chaos Space Marines.

It's not exactly stated where this game is set, but it will likely have the player roaming through
