What is Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster about?
In Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster, players will descend into the depths of the Gnaw and underworld of the Skaven, as a Skaven assassin themselves. They’ll have to navigate maze-like tunnels, hostile clans, and dangerous environments. The game is a stealth-action platforming game, which means that players will have to hide from and attack enemies in equal measure.
As an Eshin assassin, players will have access to heightened senses and unique gear, allowing them to better survive these dangerous surroundings. They can also gather precious warpstone to unlock more deadly abilities. As a member of the Eshin Clan, you’ll also be able to complete deadly contracts and climb the hierarchy.
The ultimate goal is to kill your way into becoming the most feared assassin: the Deathmaster. The game is heavily inspired by 2D action-platformers and retro games, which shouldn’t surprise fans of Dotemu, a publisher that has also been behind games like Absolum and Marvel Cosmic Invasion.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster is launching sometime in 2027.
