Earlier today, Kasedo Games officially announced Warhammer 40K Mechanicus. In the announcement trailer, gamers are introduced to the Adeptus Mechanicus army led by Magos Dominus Faustinius; this will be the first video game adaptation of Adeptus Mechanicus army. Characters will lead their priests and troops on a tactical quest to salvage ancient technology from the mysterious tombs of the planet Silva Tenebris. Every decision the player makes will shape how the missions proceed and have existential consequences for their army. Hail the Omnissiah! In partnership with Games Workshop and Bulwark Studios, Kasedo Games looks to bring a new experience to the Warhammer 40K universe through the Adeptus Mechanicus army’s destructive and mechanical power. Warhammer 40K Mechanicus will be available on PC, Mac & Linux later this year.
The announcement trailer features the recording of deceased Tech- Priest and leader of the Adeptus Mechanicus army, Magos Dominus Reditus. In the recording, Reditus conveys his disgust for humanity and the weakness of the human body. As a loyal servant of the Machine God, Reditus enhances his soldiers through cybernetic augmentation to eliminate human weaknesses. These enhancements will push humanity to its limits, using bionics and mechadendrites Reditus army will have a mechanical and tactical advantage against their enemies.
Andrew McKerrow, Producer and Product Manager at Kasedo Games, had this to say about Warhammer 40K Mechanicus,
“When Kasedo Games approached us with their exciting and original vision centering on the Adeptus Mechanicus race, the idea stood out as something we wanted to get behind.” Said Jon Gillard, Head of Licensing at Games Workshop. “Twinned with their clear knowledge of the 40K universe and passion for creating a game that fits the faction perfectly, we were more than happy to work together.
Working with Bulwark on Mechanicus was an absolute no-brainer. They have all the skills required to make it an amazing game and their immersion into the Warhammer Universe has been second to none. This project has been in conception for a few years now and, having been a big Warhammer fan since a child, I’m thrilled that we can announce a unique title to the community.”
