Auroch Digital has announced that Warhammer Survivors is in development for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch.
This fast-paced roguelite survivors game has been developed in partnership with Warhammer and Vampire Survivors creator poncle, and pits iconic characters from the Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar universes against endless hordes of enemies.
Those characters include Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun hero Malum Caedo, Chaplain Fo’Baran of the Salamanders Space Marine Chapter, the Leman Russ Tank-piloting Knight-Commander Pask, The Legend of Catachan, Commissar Sebastian Yarrick and Marneus Calgar, the Chapter Master of the Ultramarines.
Whoever you choose, you will “become the embodiment of bullet hell,” collecting and evolving iconic weapons to destroy the endless swarms of enemies.
The developer has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Unleash Destruction Across Two Universes: Choose your universe and engage in frenetic battles across the open and ashen plains of Aqshy to the tight and confined corridors of an abandoned Space Hulk. Every stage is a new arena of slaughter, each with its unique enemy faction… and secrets to uncover.
- Legendary Champions: Select from a roster of renowned champions from both the Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar universes. Play as the mighty Space Marine Sternguard Veteran, Malum Caedo, and the lightning-forged Stormcast, Neave Blacktalon, among a host of others. Each character comes with unique weapons and starting stats – no two survivors play the same.
- An Arsenal of Iconic Weapons: Wield an arsenal of iconic weapons drawn from the armouries of the far future and the Mortal Realms. Eviscerate Tyranid hordes with a chainsword, or pulverise enemies with the unrelenting Bolter… and, if all that doesn’t work, drown them in a pot of Citadel Nuln Oil paint. Mix and match weapons with power-ups and evolve them into devastating new forms to create screen-clearing storms of bullets, blades and magic.
- Endless Hordes: Obliterate the skittering, beady-eyed Skaven and their horde of warp-addled abominations or stand your ground against the ravenous Tyranid swarm and its myriads of monstrous Xenos Bioforms. Bring your weapons to bear against the endless hordes of these factions (and more) from the Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar universes!
- Meta Progression: Death is not the end for these champions of endless war. A growing roster of unlockable characters, weapons, abilities and rare relics will increase your odds of survival.
Warhammer Survivors will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch worldwide in 2026.
