It’s been a long time coming waiting for a proper Space Hulk video game. The last time was way back in ’93 and ’95 but hopefully Space Hulk: Deathwing is here to change all that. I want an asskicking, whiteknuckle, heart pounding FPS experience when I hear Space Hulk. Surviving by the skin of my teeth, kicking Genestealer ass with friends and taking names.
So far Space Hulk: Deathwing has had some great looking trailers, this latest one gives off a great Aliens like vibe, but we all know how that works. You can make an amazing trailer but can you craft a great playing game? StreumOn Studio is at the helm and Focus Home Interactive is handling the publishing rights and they think they have what it takes to make this thing kickass and I for one hope so. Space Hulk: Deathwing is coming to PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One when it’s completed.
