Slitherine Games has announced Warhammer 40,000: Gladius - Relics of War will be released for the PC on 12th July, 2018. Pre-orders are now available too, with a Deluxe Edition on offer at $35.99 or £28.79 until launch, which offers a bunch of different digital goodies.
Here's what the Deluxe Edition contains:
- An exclusive neutral unit: the Lord of Skulls! This massive behemoth of Chaos will prowl the battlefields of Gladius Prime and wreak havoc amongst your ranks. It is a formidable opponent for all of the factions competing for planetary dominance.
- The game’s stunning original soundtrack composed by Dan Bewick: 12 amazingly thematic tracks which bring the universe of Warhammer 40,000 to life.
- Digital Wallpapers: 7 awesome pieces of art depicting the battlefields of Gladius Prime and the factions engaged in a deadly struggle for control of the planet.
Warhammer 40,000: Gladius - Relics of War is going to be released on Steam later this summer. Necrons, Orks, Astra Militarum, Space Marines: four factions are ready to wage a total war for control of the planet Gladius Prime. There is no space for diplomacy, only war to survive and annihilate the xenos. In the first 4X strategy game ever made set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe you will need to be ruthless and clever: the enemy will show no mercy, and you shouldn’t either. In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war…
Warhammer 40,000: Gladius - Relics of War is essentially Sid Meier’s Civilization meets Warhammer 40k, which is something that we said in our hands-on preview of the game back in April. Will you be picking up a copy on 12th July?
