New Warhammer 40K RTS title Battlefleet Gothic: Armada announced

Battlefleet Gothic: Armada

Focus Home Interactive is pairing up with Tindalos Interactive to create a new real-time strategy game based on Game Workshop’s famous Warhammer universe. The game will be called Battlefleet Gothic: Armada and unlike previous Warhammer adapted RTS titles( like Dawn of War), Battlefleet Gothic will focus on space battles in a war torn universe(as opposed to planet side battles).

Players will be given the option to control a battle fleet of either Chaos, Elder, Imperial or Orc factions as well as manage every ship during battles. They will also be able to customize the mechanics of each ship, including support sub-systems, weaponry, and defences. Admirals and crew that survive the ordeal will gain experience and promotions. This will grow as players progress through the game

Battlefleet Gothic: Armada is being developed by Tindalos Interactive using the Unreal Engine 4. The game is sure to impress Warhammer and RTS fans and will be available for the PC.

Focus Home Interactive has not announced a release date for the upcoming title yet but fans can expect some news from the company “very soon”. Warhammer 40k is a famous tabletop miniature wargame that has garnered a huge player base since its release back in 1987. The game has seen several video game adaptations since. Here’s hoping Gothic: Armada lives up to the expectations of Warhammer fans.
