It's finally time! We're excited to announce that it will be launching on the...
14th October 2026
In the run up to launch, we’ll also be sharing several Steam posts taking a closer look at the new enemies and the biggest changes from Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun to Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2.
We’d also like to take a moment to thank everyone who submitted bug reports and feedback from the demo. They were incredibly helpful and we read every single one of them and implemented some of your feedback. More on that soon!
If you haven’t already, make sure to check out our demo ahead of launch to get a good idea of what to expect from the full game.
The new release date trailer (featured above) absolutely shreds, but we can’t take any of the credit for that as we weren’t the ones to write the music...
One of our goals with Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 was to try and make it bigger and better than the original game and we had some big ideas, like adding a second playable character, incorporating the four Chaos factions, and a few others we can’t mention yet.
But one we can announce today is that Mick Gordon, composer for DOOM Eternal and Wolfenstein: The New Order, joined us for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 to create the music for our final boss battle!
By this point of the post, you’ve hopefully already watched our release date trailer, whether that’s for the release date, or to listen to Mick’s punchy riffs. But we also snuck one final surprise in though – a first look at our antagonist.
That’s right! In, Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 our playable characters Ultramarine Malum Caedo and Sister of Battle Nyra Veyrath soon find themselves facing the wrath of Vashtorr the Arkifane, a demigod of immense power.
Race from world to world to cleanse the corruption powering Vashtorr’s daemonic machine and to stand a chance of banishing the demigod back to the Warp.
Mick's musical personification of Vashtorr is full of dread and danger- it's a welcome addition to the sonic palette. He put together a suite of cues that set a new bar for the soundtrack, laying the bricks to a climactic showdown with Vashtorr himself
Start the countdown! Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 launches in 49 days on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. A Nintendo Switch 2 version is also coming soon, but more on that later!
See you there!
Did you know we have ANOTHER Warhammer game launching this year?
Developed in partnership with poncle and Warhammer, it’s time to battle for survival in the universes of Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar in all their pixelated magnificence!
