Turn-based tactics games have been cursed with comparisons to Firaxis’ indomitable XCOM for almost a decade, which the Grey Knights of Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters are about to learn. Sorry, lads, but Warhammer 40,000: XCOM is just easier to remember.
The Grey Knights, if you’re not au fait with 40K’s many Space Marine chapters, get their rocks off by hunting daemons, which they also happen to be very good at. These special boys were engineered from the gene-seed of the Emperor, and while they’re designed to be the ultimate weapon against the forces of Chaos, most people don’t know they exist. So they’re black-ops super soldiers with an important daddy.
Like , you’ll be putting together squads of these Grey Knights, customising them with equipment suited to the task at hand, and then, everything has been reconfigured for a universe of infinite war, where humanity faces down dark gods and cosmic plagues.
