The release date trailer lasts just over a minute and a half. It opens on Morvenn Vahl, Abbess Sanctorum of the Adepta Sororitas, in her Paragon armour, then shows pixel art gameplay, from hordes of enemies filling the screen to red dice rolling on a cutting mat. It ends on the date of 10 November 2026 and shows a PEGI 7 rating.

The game will be available on Xbox Game Pass from launch. A 10% discount applies at launch and on pre-orders on some platforms; on PS5, it is PlayStation Plus subscribers who get it when they pre-order the game.

The new demo adds two characters, the Catachan Legend and Lyssa Revenya, along with improvements based on player feedback on the previous demo. Lyssa Revenya, a thief and tomb raider from the city of Lethis, comes from the Age of Sigmar setting. Her weapon, a rope fitted with a grappling hook, throws hooks from the edges of the screen, wounds enemies and drags the ones that survive. Once evolved, it summons the spirit of Rhea, her former mentor, who explodes into a spectral mist. Morvenn Vahl, also revealed on 6 October, fires the Fidelis, a heavy bolter that sprays its shots in an arc; its evolution, the Purgator Mirabilis, adds salvos from her armour's missile launcher.

Two campaigns, Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar, from the studios behind Boltgun and Vampire Survivors

Warhammer Survivors is developed by Auroch Digital, the studio behind Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, in partnership with poncle, the studio behind Vampire Survivors. It uses the same formula: survive endless hordes of enemies by combining weapons with bonuses and evolving them. Characters, weapons, abilities and relics are unlocked as you play.

The game has two campaigns, one in Warhammer 40,000 and the other in Warhammer Age of Sigmar, with more than 40 playable characters, more than 75 weapons and more than 15 levels. The characters include Malum Caedo, the Space Marine Sternguard Veteran who is the hero of Boltgun, and Neave Blacktalon, a Stormcast Eternal armed with storm axes. Each level has its own enemy faction, from the Skaven to the Tyranid swarms, in settings ranging from the plains of Aqshy to the corridors of an abandoned Space Hulk. The game also features super bosses, such as the Norn Emissary.

Alongside the chainsword, the bolter and orbital strikes, several weapons come from miniature painting: a spilled pot of Citadel Nuln Oil paint makes enemies more vulnerable to fire, and six-sided dice explode when they land on the right result. Some games take place on a painting table, between a cutting mat, a brush and a sticky note reminding you not to lick your brush.

Until 10 November, the Warhammer universe can already be played on consoles and collected as Funko POP figures.
