Evaluation

Space Hulk: Deathwing launched on December 14, 2016, and subsequently received a steady stream of free post-launch updates throughout 2017 — adding new classes, weapons, enemy types, game modes, and fixes. This culminated in the Enhanced Edition, which launched on May 22, 2018, bundling all the new content into one package and also bringing the game to PlayStation 4 for the first time. The Enhanced Edition announcement confirmed that all Enhanced Edition content was delivered free to existing PC owners, and the developer explicitly stated at that time that the class customization system involves "no microtransactions now or planned for the future." The Enhanced Edition release represents the final major content milestone: all previously announced features (new class, new weapons, new enemies, customization system, Special Missions) had shipped by that date. There have been no developer posts announcing further content, roadmaps, or updates since the Enhanced Edition launched in May 2018. The game appears to have concluded its content development cycle with the Enhanced Edition release.

About this game

Space Hulk: Deathwing is a First-Person Shooter experience based on Games Workshop's classic Space Hulk boardgame set in the universe of Warhammer 40,000. Space Hulk: Deathwing was developed on Unreal Engine 4, and offers you and up to three of your friends the chance to experience a desperate battle against Genestealers in the claustrophobic tunnels of a Space Hulk. You also gain skills, new abilities, and new equipment as you earn experience during missions.

Space Hulks drift along the currents of the Warp, the immaterial dimension of Chaos. Made up of gigantic, mangled asteroids, ship wrecks, and other stellar debris, they can grow to the size of a moon, and often contain treasured and ancient lost technologies. They are often also infested with broods of the lethal Genestealer.

In the game you take on the role of a Space Marine from one of the most secret and most feared Space Marine forces: the Deathwing of the Dark Angels Chapter.

As a Librarian, you can also master the destructive powers of the Psykers. Your skills and performance in battle grant you Fervor Points to spend on 3 skill trees, allowing you to improve your abilities and unlock new powers.

Don your Terminator armour and arm yourself with the iconic weaponry of the Space Marines and face the threats that await you in the Space Hulk.
