Auroch Digital has officially announced Warhammer Survivors, a new fast-paced roguelite survivors game launching in 2026 on Steam. Developed and published by Auroch Digital (Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun) in partnership with poncle, the creators of Vampire Survivors, and Warhammer, the game fuses the genre-defining “survivors” gameplay formula with the dark, war-torn worlds of Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer: Age of Sigmar.
Endorsed as part of the official Survivors lineage, Warhammer Survivors drops players into an unending onslaught of foes across both universes. Players will collect and evolve iconic weapons, combine power-ups, and unleash screen-filling storms of bullets, blades, and holy fury as they fend off the tides of Chaos, Tyranids, Skaven, and more.
Two Universes, Endless Carnage
In Warhammer Survivors, players can fight for survival in either the grimdark future of the 41st Millennium or the mythic Mortal Realms of Age of Sigmar. Each run introduces new strategies, characters, and combinations to experiment with, alongside unlockable upgrades, secrets, and powerful relics to collect.
Today’s reveal introduced some of the first playable heroes and enemy factions coming to the game:
From Warhammer 40,000:
- Malum Caedo – the Boltgun hero returns, purging the Tyranid swarm with righteous fury.
- Trooper Kozlowski – a battle-hardened Cadian Shock Trooper.
- Brother Luca – a stalwart Space Marine Intercessor of the Adeptus Astartes.
From Warhammer: Age of Sigmar:
- Neave Blacktalon – Sigmar’s divine assassin, cutting through the Skaven hordes.
- Gotrek Gurnisson – the unstoppable Slayer who hunts monsters across realms.
- Sharynn Azurwrath – a Stormcast Eternal Vanquisher wielding a Celestial Greatsword.
Features Overview
- Signature Survivors Gameplay: Fast, frantic, and endlessly replayable.
