In case you’re a fan of turn-based tactical fight, Menace is presently the most well liked recreation to look at. Developed by Overhype Studios, the workforce behind Battle Brothers, it combines difficult and immersive tactical battles with a fascinating strategic layer, its mechanics and aesthetics being impressed by the likes of Warhammer 40,000.
Stranded in a sector that was lower off from galactic civilization, gamers not solely must deal with human threats on this recreation — a mysterious alien pressure, the titular Menace, rears its ugly head. Thus far we solely had descriptions and idea artwork to offer us an impression of those freaks, however a brand new cinematic trailer for the sport has lastly given us an in depth take a look at the body-horror monstrosities we’ll must struggle.
What’s extra, the trailer offers yet one more connection to Warhammer 40,000, as a result of it was directed by none aside from Astartes creator Syama Pedersen and produced by Hoplite VFX of Star Wars 212 fame. It’s principally an all-star job pressure with regards to creating footage of a firefight between small squads.
The video exhibits forces of marines and pirates annihilating one another in a rundown constructing, just for the corpses to be dragged down into the depths by an unknown presence on the finish, and be dissolved inside a pool of icky goo from which a hideous creature emerges that I can solely describe as a Terminator with fleshy bits. Discuss a trailer match for Halloween, eh?
Menace is coming to PC on February 5, 2026.
