Eutechnyx Announces MOBA Set In Warhammer 40K
Today Eutechnyx announced Storm of Vengeance, a MOBA set in Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40K universe. Players will battle on planet Piscina IV and can choose to fight as the bloodthirsty orks or the perennially cool dark angel space marines.
This is a new approach to the franchise, leaving the turn-based or real-time strategy for a “lane strategy game.” Storm of Vengeance is set for a 2014 release on PC and mobile platforms.

Our Take
As a long-time Warhammer fan, I like to seek out new ways to experience the universe. I’m keeping an eye on the MMO Eternal Crusade. Storm of Vengeance could pan out to be fun for my mobile device and could do well to calm my anticipation for the MMO.
However, Eutechnyx has mostly worked on NASCAR racing games. They’ve went away from their formula before with Ride to Hell, but people weren’t too pleased (at least not for the right reasons). I won’t get too excited until I see it in action.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
