Warhammer 40K Eternal Crusade is an MMORPG with third person shooter mechanics powered by Epic's Unreal Engine 4.
Based on the multimillion-selling and extensive universe of Warhammer 40,000, Eternal Crusade will take gamers into a vicious battle between four factions of the 41st millennium in order to control a persistent world at war. Whether it is PvP (Player versus Player) or PvE (Player versus Environment), squads will have to work together and engage in massive battles in order to exterminate the other factions. To do so; players can choose from twenty different sub-factions, earn hundreds of weapons, customization options and accessories drawn from 29 years of Warhammer 40,000 lore to create their perfect warrior.
It is now available via Steam Early Access for $/€ 39.99, thanks to a 20% discount which will be valid until February 2. Take a look at this huge gallery of new screenshots and a new trailer.
