In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war. And even those in the hive world of Necromunda are fighting to survive.
This small slice of the Warhammer 40,000 universe does make for an interesting FPS setting, which Necromunda: Hired Gun is all about.
The self-described “fast-paced, action-packed, wall-running, head-popping, throat-cutting, indie single-player first-person-shooter” shows more gameplay, including what seems to be the final UI. In Hired Gun, you’ll be taking on bounties which leads you to be shooting in the many grungy landscapes of Necromunda, with a trusty mastiff dog by your side.
There’s a loot system, and an upgrade system with various guns you can use. Expect to see the familiar armaments of the Warhammer 40K universe like the bolter and lasgun make an appearance, as well as more exotic weaponry.
Necromunda: Hired Gun looks so far to be promising, but it for all we know it could just be flashy looks only. But we’ll find out for sure when it releases for PS4, PS5, PC (Steam, Epic Games Store), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S on June 1.
