This episode Sam is talking about Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, a brutal retro-inspired shooter set in the grim darkness of the far future.
Released in 2023, Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun drops players into the blood-soaked boots of a Space Marine as he purges heretics and Chaos forces in the universe of Warhammer 40,000. Designed as a love letter to 90s shooters like Doom and Quake, Boltgun combines chunky pixel visuals, lightning-fast movement, and screen-filling carnage with the over-the-top lore and gothic excess the franchise is known for.
Armed with the iconic boltgun, chainsword, and a devastating arsenal of heavy weapons, players tear through cultists, Chaos Space Marines, and daemonic horrors in sprawling maze-like levels packed with secrets. It’s unapologetically old-school in structure, but layered with modern polish and Warhammer spectacle.
Loud, relentless, and drenched in pixelated gore, Boltgun is a retro shooter revival done right—and pure cathartic chaos for fans of fast-paced FPS action.
