A new turn-based tactical RPG set in the world of Warhammer 40,000 has been announced by Frontier. The turn-based RPG will feature the mysterious Grey Knights.
Frontier Foundry and developer Complex Games have announced
Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters, a new turn-based, tactical RPG set in Games Workshop’s exciting Warhammer 40,000 universe. Rather than focus on one of the usual Space Marine Chapters, this upcoming title follows the Chapter most skilled at fighting incursions by the forces of Chaos. Early images and an announcement teaser trailer can be seen below while a full cinematic trailer can be expected to warp to us this August.
The fight against the forces of Chaos and their corrupted, malevolent, depraved gods has been going on for tens of thousands of years and although the chapters of Space Marines like Ultramarines and Blood Angels do great work at stopping demons, there are none that excel in this task as much as the Grey Knights. The Grey Knights’ origins are shrouded in mystery and possession of any knowledge of them that hasn’t been sanctioned by the high command is punishable by death.

Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters, the game was revealed Thursday during the Warhammer Skulls livestreaming presentation and will be published by a new subsidiary within Frontier Developments (
Elite Dangerous,
Jurassic World: Evolution). The game is expected to release some time in 2022.
Daemonhunters will tell the story the secretive Grey Knights chapter of Space Marines, a unique chapter genetically different from all other chapters of the Adeptas Astartes. Often confused with their cousins, the Deathwatch, the Grey Knights are dedicated to battling the forces of Chaos. Serving as the military arm of the Inquisitorial Ordo Malleus, every single one of the Grey Knights is a powerful psyker. That makes them equally skilled at doing battle with a sword and bolter, or with the potent magical energies of the warp.
: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters sometime in 2022. Developed by Complex Games in Canada, the game will be a turn-based tactical RPG set in the
Warhammer 40K Universe from Games Workshop. This particular game will throw you into the helm of humanity s greatest weapon, the Grey Knights, against the corrupting forces of Chaos in what will be a fast-paced, brutal, and insanely tactical RPG title that will make a lot of fans of the franchise very happy with the content they have planned. The team had previously worked on the
Age of Sigmar series, which should give you a pretty good idea of what to expect when we get our hands on it. The full cinematic announcement is currently being planned for August 2021, but for now, we have the teaser trailer below along with some screenshots and a little more information on the story. Enjoy the trailer!
