With so much lore behind Warhammer 40,0000 to unpack and various video games, books, tabletop sets, and more expanding upon its setting, it's an intimidating series to get into, no doubt about it. So of course, I know next to nothing about the Warhammer 40,000 series... but after playing Boltgun, I definitely want to learn more.

As a boomer shooter fanatic, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to try out Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun for myself, and as it turns out, it served as the perfect introduction to the franchise. If you're not looking to get invested in Warhammer lore but love a good shooter, I still encourage you to try out one of this year's best shooters.

Pros
Fulfills the Space Marine Power Fantasy
Every Weapon is a Force of Nature
Level Design and Artistic Direction Exceed Expecations

Cons
Switching Plasma Rifle is Clunky
Some Visibility Issues
