This edition will add exciting new content and features for players who dare enter the Genestealer-infested Space Hulk – all of which will be included in a massive update of free content for PC players.

The new content is delivered in a series of update on PC, several of which have already been release in the last few months:

• Full multiplayer progression system with loot and class customization
  
• New multiplayer class (Interrogator-Chaplain)
  
• New weapon and skills (Return to Olethros update)

Check out our official forum for more info!

Today marks the beginning of the Games Workshop's event Skulls for the Skull Throne, a weekend-long event during which games from the Warhammer world and the Warhammer 40,000 universe are enjoying time-limited discount offers on Steam, as well as additional content themed around the Blood God, Khorne, the legendary Warhammer figure sitting upon his Skull Throne in the Realm of Chaos!

On this special occasion, the Warhammer games from the Focus Home Interactive catalogue will benefit from exceptional discounts on Steam, along with free additional content for all players to enjoy, all themed around the Blood God Khorne, and the characteristic Skulls this God of Chaos is associated with!




A brand new class has been added to the game - the fearsome Interrogator-Chaplain. This specialist officer is the spiritual leader of his fellow Dark Angels and is famously known for his macabre skull helm.

Available in solo special missions and multiplayer, this fearsome fighter for the Emperor brings a unique set of weapons such as the Crozius Arcanum, a sacred staff infused with a powerful energy field generator. Chaplains are able to provide unparalleled support, capable of resurrecting downed squad members, reflecting damage back to his enemies, and much more.
