Boltgun Forges of Corruption Landing Soon

There is no doubt that both Boltgun and Darktide are excellent Warhammer 40k games. Although Darktide had a poor launch, a series of free updates has transformed it into a great game. Visuals, sound, and design are matched by fun gameplay and a deep storyline.

In addition, the Warhammer Skulls preview stream revealed Secrets of the Machine God, a new mission set in a derelict Mechanicus research station in Atelium Foundryplex Omega V. All this is great and players are anxious to get their hands on the game.

There’s no doubt that Forges of Corruption, the new DLC for Boltgun, has the edge. It’s fast, furious, and faithful to both Warhammer 40k and the boomer shooter era of lightning-quick FPS games. Even though it couldn’t have been made with Quake’s technology, it’s tricky. It feels like its roots are in an era of gaming that most players aren’t old enough to remember.

There aren’t many things to do for returning players other than play the game again faster and on a higher difficulty setting. Despite loving Boltgun, Forges of Corruption is the reason most people have returned to it. They have discovered something more in its story.

There is a great deal of differentiation in the weapons and enemies of the core game. They love the prospect of fighting Chaos Space Marine Havocs and Helbrutes. Or, using a new multi-melta and missile launcher across all new levels. And there’s also a horde mode to play!

In September we will get the release date for Space Marine 2 as well as the newly revealed multiplayer feature. I am in danger of losing all sense of time to these two sumptuous treats. In addition to Mechanicus 2, an excellent XCOM-like game, it has one of the best stories and soundtracks in Warhammer 40k gaming.
