Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster ‘Gameplay’ trailer, screenshots
Due out in 2027.
Publisher Dotemu and developer Old Skull Games have released a gameplay trailer and new screenshots for 2D action platformer Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster.
Here is an overview of the game, via Dotemu:
About
Explore the unsettled realms of the Warhammer Age of Sigmar through the eyes of Vihneek, a Skaven assassin of the Clans Eshin.
In the tunnels and lairs of Skavendom, stealth is not only about hiding. It is about control, observation, and ruthless, grisly violence.
You are no hero, and life is cheap in the disturbed world of the ratmen.
Escape
Descend into the fractured depths of the Gnaw and the paranoid underworld of the Skaven. Navigate shifting tunnels, hostile clans and environments shaped by corruption and warpstone instability. Each clan territory brings its own rules, threats and behavioral patterns.
Learn. Observe. Exploit openings. Kill unseen, or die unnoticed.
Kill
Feel the precision, speed and deadly efficiency of an Eshin assassin with simple, intuitive controls inspired by masters of the 2D stealth-action platform genre.
Use heightened senses and devious strategies based on the Skaven’s unique nature to eliminate your prey.
Ascend
Stand out from the swarm and rise through the ranks by honing your skills and upgrading your gear. Gather precious warpstone to unlock deadly abilities and secret tools that unveil new, unpredictable ways to hunt your prey.
Experiment with unique gameplay strategies shaped by Skaven instincts and cunning to dominate your enemies.
Only one in a thousand ratmen will achieve greatness. Make sure it’s you.
Become a Deathmaster
Complete deadly contracts on behalf of your Eshin Clan to climb the hierarchy. The more you kill, the closer you get to becoming the most feared and respected assassin: the ultimate Deathmaster. And if it happens to please the Great Horned Rat, all the better…
But in a deeply conniving faction, every rise comes with consequences and no ascent is ever without a price.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster is due out for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, and PC via Steam in 2027.
