Focus Home Interactive and Tindalos Interactive have revealed a brand new RTS game adaptation for Games Workshop’s classic boardgame dubbed Battlefleet Gothic: Armada.
Instead of having you control hordes of Orks and Space Marines on the ground level, you’ll be the commander of entire fleets of spacecraft, whether it be the Imperial Navy or the Black Crusade.
The game is built within Unreal Engine 4, and it lets you assemble and completely customize your navy as you seek to conquer the entire Gothic sector of space. All of the ships defense, support systems, and weapons can be manipulated to your liking.
The crew members are even able to level up and gain experience through battle. So far the playable races confirmed are the Chaos, Eldar, Ork, and the Humans.
As for the developer – Tindalos Interactive, they’re a recently opened developer formed back in 2010. They developed the space RTS Stellar Impact, as well as another strategy game, Etherium.
Further details, like a release date are unconfirmed. It’s certainly a wonderful time to be a Warhammer 40K fan, with this and Total War: Warhammer being leaked.
