Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 Gets a Release Date

The retro FPS sequel arrives October 14, and I'll be revisiting the original before it launches.

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 is coming October 14, launching on PC via Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, with a Switch 2 version to follow later.

The sequel picks up right after the original, bringing back Space Marine protagonist Malum Caedo, alongside a new playable character, Battle Sister Nyla Veyrath. The first game went through corridors that could be described as linear, but Boltgun 2 introduces a new style campaign, with mission paths that shift depending on your in-game choices.

The soundtrack features an original track from Mick Gordon, the composer behind DOOM (2016), DOOM Eternal, and Wolfenstein: The New Order.

Mick Gordon and a boomer shooter? It's a match made in heaven.

Since the sequel is still a few weeks out, I'll be spending that time replaying the original Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun. A full review of Boltgun is coming soon, ahead of the sequel's launch.
