Combinations of melee and gun-play is simple and fun to play, but it will feel a bit repetitive toward the end.

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.
