As someone who has sunk far too many hours into Vermintide 2, to the point where it's fairly embarrassing, Warhammer 40k: Darktide is an absolutely brilliant spiritual successor. Developed by Fatshark, which created both Vermintide games, Darktide's brutal sci-fi action is exciting and engaging, even after I've spent more than fifty hours playing. If you're yet to give it a go, now's the perfect time to do so, as the chaotic looter shooter has hit its lowest price to celebrate Warhammer Day 2025.

I'm a simple man. If I see the Adeptus Mechanicus involved in a Warhammer project, I click buy. Whether it's my tabletop army, creating my own personal collection of IRL servo skulls, or indeed something from our list of the best Warhammer 40k games, I'm a toaster man through and through. And we're eating right now. The recent Mechanicus 2 demo was excellent (even if I was more impressed by the Necrons), my Dawn of War 4 preview features our not-so-friendly robots, and I really hope Warhammer 40k Darktide is next. Developer Fatshark has teased that a new class is on the way, and I've got a funny feeling that something robotic this way comes.
