Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus 2 launches in spring 2026

Mechanicus 2

Publisher Kasedo Games and developer Bulwark Studios announced a firmer release window for Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II, their new strategy game sequel.

Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II is in development for Windows PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store), Xbox Series X|S, and PS5 with a release now set for spring 2026.

Here’s a rundown on the new details, plus a new trailer

The new release window will allow the team to further refine the experience in response to player requests following the Steam Next Fest demo, where it ranked among the event’s most played titles.

Building on this momentum, Bulwark Studios have listened closely to player feedback and have begun working on those widely requested features. The full game will now include an audio option to play with either ‘lingua-technis’, the binaric machine code language of the Adeptus Mechanicus that contributed heavily to the first game’s distinct atmosphere, or with the traditional human voiceover as heard in the demo. Movement systems are also being enhanced, with an optional setting to allow the Move action to auto-select when cycling between units, creating a smoother and more efficient tactical flow.

The team is equally committed to addressing performance concerns raised during the demo period. These optimisations, together with the continued refinement of new systems and campaign content, are central to delivering a sequel that meets the expectations set by both the community and the studio’s own ambitions.

Alongside the announcement, Kasedo Games have released the first in an ongoing video series which demonstrates customisation systems and unique faction mechanics not present in the demo. Each instalment will highlight two deployable leaders, one each for the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Necrons, offering an in-depth look at their playstyles, abilities and strategic roles within the unfolding conflict.
