What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The story is serviceable, and the core gameplay loop is fun and has aged pretty well, despite feeling like it's straight from the Xbox 360 era.
Captain Titus of the Ultramarines is a walking apocalypse, and Relic's melee-and-shooting hybrid combat sells that scale better than almost anything before or since — chainsword executions, stomping on fleeing Orks, seamlessly switching between bolter fire and brutal melee combos.
The gameplay is pretty fun but definitely feels more geared towards controllers, and movement is a little stiff and is a little bit awkward at first to control when you start the game.
I felt the game was very well balanced for the average player (like me!) on Normal difficulty.
this game was my first intro to Warhammer 40k, and i loved every moment of it. great combat, fantastic characters, and the game looks super good almost like todays graphics , judging it came in 2011. i loved the story , gun play was fun and even the online multiplayer is enjoyable. 10/10 for me.
This Anniversary Edition includes for the first time the full soundtrack for the game, along with the other extras.
