Old school style FPS players have been living in a land of plenty for a while now, thanks to the surging genre known lovingly as \u201cboomer shooters.\u201d Fans of the\u00a0Warhammer 40,000 franchise have also been eating well in the gaming department lately, with no shortage of releases across multiple styles of play.\u00a0Warhammer 40K: Boltgun stands proudly in the middle of this Venn diagram as a well-loved shooter with a cult following, particularly for the game\u2019s unstoppable protagonist, Malum Caedo.<\/p>\n
Today, Caedoheads and Retro FPS freaks join hands and celebrate a brand new trailer for the\u00a0Boltgun sequel, brought to us with the kind of righteous fury that only a Space Marine can deliver:<\/p>\n
This new trailer pulls no punches on any fronts, from the driving guitars of\u00a0legendary\u00a0Doom composer Mick Gordon to the release date announcement, but one of the biggest shocks from the blistering minute-long teaser has to be the unveiling of the game\u2019s primary antagonist: Vashtorr the Arkifane.<\/p>\n
Vashtorr is a massive adversary, both physically and hierarchically, standing outside of the usual scheme of 40K\u2019s Chaos Lords by dealing with all four of them directly. And soon enough, we\u2019re all going to get a chance to punch him in his daemonic face.<\/p>\n
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 releases on\u00a0October 14, 2026, for the Playstation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. A Switch 2 release is also planned for the near future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Old school style FPS players have been living in a land of plenty for a while now, thanks…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":597112,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[85,46,125],"class_list":["post-597111","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/597111","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=597111"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/597111\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/597112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=597111"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=597111"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=597111"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
