Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters arrives on consoles in February

Here’s a brief overview provided by Frontier Developments:
”In Warhammer 40,000®: Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters, players will take command of humanity’s greatest weapon, the Grey Knights, as they clash with the corrupting forces of Chaos in a brutal and fast-paced turn-based tactical crusade. Experience an epic narrative penned by New York Times bestselling author Aaron Dembski-Bowden, filled with valour, glory and sacrifice, and brought to life by an outstanding cast including the vocal talents of Andy Serkis (The Lord of the Rings, The Batman) and Robyn Addison (Final Fantasy XIV, Dragon Age: Inquisition).
On the battlefield, players will customise and command their unique squad of Grey Knights in brutal turn-based combat, executing orders with absolute certainty of the outcome. With an array of specialist and advanced classes, commanders can overwhelm their foes by using the environment to collapse cathedral pillars and detonate plasma batteries, or cleave the enemy’s limbs from their bodies to remove their abilities before opening up stunning cinematic executions.
As the Grey Knights clash with Nurgle’s foul poxwalkers and legions of Death Guard, the Bloom amplifies each foe’s abilities based on the strain of Bloom present on the planet. As powerful psykers, the Grey Knights can utilise psychic abilities to change the course of battle, however each use increases the chance of a Warp Surge event, bringing unexpected consequences and greater challenge to each encounter.
Force Commanders can bolster their armoury with the Purifier Edition, which grants players the opportunity to recruit the legendary Castellan Garran Crowe to their ranks partway through the campaign. This powerful Grey Knights champion is entrusted with the Black Blade of Antwyr, a weapon of untold power, and can be used in place of a squad member to lead their forces into battle.
Warhammer 40,000®: Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters launches digitally on February 20 on PlayStation® 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation® 4 and Xbox One for a suggested retail price of £34.99 / $44.99 / €44.99, with the Purifier Edition available at a suggested retail price of £39.99 / $49.99 / €49.99.
