Warhammer 40k Boltgun is an upcoming first-person shooter (FPS) game set in the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, but it looks like it was made in the mid-1990s. Here’s what we know about it so far, including when it will come out, what it looks like, and the history of the company that made it, Aurochs Digital.

Warhammer 40k In Boltgun, players step into the shoes of a ceramic-armored Space Marine and have to kill hordes of Chaos Space Marines, cultists, and daemons. Classic shooters from the 1990s, like Doom, Quake, and Unreal, inspired the retro style.

The only announcement developer Auroch Digital made on Steam was that Warhammer 40k Boltgun would be coming out “in 2023.”

Warhammer 40k Boltgun Trailer

The Warhammer 40k Boltgun trailer is meant to make anyone who played video games in the 1990s feel nostalgic. It starts with a live-action video of a person moving taped boxes out of a bedroom that is otherwise empty. A big box that says “JAMIE’S STUFF 1999” clarifies that these are old things from their childhood being moved out of their parent’s house.

When they open the box, they find things from the 1990s, like a magic eight ball, a slinky, and an old box of Chaos Space Marine figures on top of a stack of White Dwarf magazines. They remove a small group of Space Marines from 1998 and a Land Raider battle tank.

Finally, they pull out a blue floppy disc for the Warhammer 40k game: Boltgun: If you’re young enough to have never seen a floppy disc, it held one megabyte of data, was used to sell software and transfer files between computers, and is the inspiration for the “save” icon.

Warhammer 40k: Boltgun didn’t exist in the 1990s, the short gameplay video shows it has a very 90s look, with pixel art, low-poly 3D environments, wild gunfire, and a heavy metal score.

Warhammer 40k Boltgun Weapons

Here are the Warhammer 40K Boltgun weapons shown in the trailer or usable in the preview build:

Boltgun

A Space Marine’s standard weapon is a “boltgun” or “bolter.” The bolter looks like a blocky assault rifle but shoots rocket-propelled grenades that explode when they hit their target. This is why it makes such a huge mess of its targets.

Power-ups that are hard to find can temporarily make the boltgun even more dangerous. The gun’s power will increase as long as Kraken bolter shells are in the hopper.

Space Marine Shotgun

The Space Marine shotgun does precisely what you’d expect from a gun: it messes up enemies close up. It can only be reloaded one shell at a time, which makes it unreliable in an emergency, but it’s great for putting enemies in their place when they’re close.

Meltagun

The meltagun is a microwave beam with a short range that can superheat metal and liquid. It is a powerful weapon against tanks. In the trailer, it looks like it fires a wide spread of fiery particles.

Chainsword

At the end of the trailer, you’ll see the player character swing his chain sword left-handed into the head of a poor cultist. Chainswords are chainsaw swords, just like they sound. You can always use the chainsword as a backup weapon.

Plasmagun

The plasmagun is an energy weapon with a lot of power. It fires slowly but is very dangerous. This weapon can also be used by traitor Guardsmen and cultists, making it a real threat to your Space Marine hero.
