The unfortunately named Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters was revealed for PlayStation platforms last month and is on track for a 20th February deployment on PS5 and PS4. Daemonhunters tasks players with purging pestilent Nurgle cultists with flame, Bolter, and righteous fury in tense, tactical encounters, and we got an illuminating gameplay overview trailer showing us how it all works.
To be reductive, Daemonhunters is a brilliant, modern spin on the XCOM formula, divided between a strategic overarching campaign map and turn-based deployments where every decision can have lasting consequences. Of course, it all comes wrapped in a gritty 40K package, so this one is an easy recommendation for Warhammer fans especially. Released on PC in 2022, it still enjoys Mostly Positive reviews on Steam and should be on the radar of the increasingly spoiled strategy fans playing on PlayStation.
What do you think of Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters? Are you on board with the idea of tense, turn-based tactical encounters in a grimdark future where there is only war? Let us know in the comments section below.

This looks pretty good but I was just about to pick up Midnight Suns since it's heavily discounted on PS right now.
Personally I think looks pretty awful. The graphics are not good at all and they characters look really cheap. It's a suped up mobile game (my opinion) but at least the audio is pretty decent. I'll wait until it drops on extra.
@Fishface45 Midnight Sons was enjoyable, but I do feel that it could get pretty limited, in that each hero (bar your main) only has a total of 8 combat abilities. So obviously, variety comes with mixing up the team and stuff, but otherwise, you might find yourself tapering off. I got the plat, so liked it enough to rush it a 2nd time, but I'd say go for whichever you feel looks more interesting/ enjoyable.
