Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun News

Hey everyone, we hope you’re having a great August so far!

For those of you who are interested in all things space, you might have seen our upcoming game Mars Horizon 2: The Search for Life where you’ll be leading your space agency to investigate the solar system and collect evidence of life. Earlier this year we announced our partnership with Professor Konstantin Batygin, and now we have another exciting partnership to share with you!

If you're one of those space lovers, you might have seen that the European Space Agency (ESA) are at Gamescom this year, which seems like a fitting time to let you all know that we are partnering with them once more for Mars Horizon 2: The Search for Life!

The European Space Agency is Europe’s gateway to space. Its mission is to shape the development of Europe’s space capability and ensure that investment in space continues to deliver benefits to the citizens of Europe and the world.

We are going to be working with the folks at ESA to make sure we can bring authenticity and real-world science into our sequel to Mars Horizon. As the sequel focuses on The Search for Life, we are excited to talk to them about biosignature detection, sample return, and much more. Their partnership ensures that we can create an authentic game in Mars Horizon 2, as we did with the first!
