Frontier Foundry have released the first gameplay trailer for Complex Games‘ Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters.
The upcoming tactical RPG places players in control of a strike team of Grey Knights, attempting to halt the spread of a Chaos plague called The Bloom before it rots the entire galaxy. Players will travel from planet to planet, purging Chaos cultists, Death Guard Heretic Astartes, and Nurgle daemons; all of which will gradually mutate and acquire disgusting new abilities as The Bloom spreads.
Your own Grey Knights will gradually learn new skills and psychic powers as well, and you’ll have access to four different classes. You can find the gameplay reveal below.
You can find the rundown (via Steam) below:
