Do you prefer monsters – or demons, as the case may be? Because Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector (opens in new tab), number 10 (opens in new tab) on each of our ridiculously long rankings of Warhammer 40,000 games, they’re getting it. Specifically the Demon of Khorne, a new little faction is coming free to all players in the new Demonic update.
And yes, for the record, it’s officially called: Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector – The Demonic Update (opens in new tab). And it sounds as wildly Warhammer as you’d expect: “Chaos begins its incursion into Battlesector with a combat force of Hornet Demons including Bloodmasters, Bloodletters, Flesh Hounds, and the mighty Skull Cannon!” Definitely a skull cannon. I wonder if it uses the same skull as the Skull Throne (opens in new tab)?
Anyway, back to the point. The update will also add a new asynchronous objective type called “Siege”, available in Skirmish, Multiplayer and Base Attack battles in Planetary Supremacy, with one side working to capture four strategic control points while defending attackers. attempt to destroy the army, and a trio of new themed maps, also available in skirmish, multiplayer, and base attack modes: Fortress of Redemption (Blood Angels), Feeding Grounds (Tyranid), and Blackstone (Nekron) .
The Demonic update will also bring a number of gameplay changes: the starting position of minor faction units in Battle for Planetary Supremacy has been changed, and a new quick reinforcement option will enable players to spend requirement tokens to acquire new units faster. .
Developer Black Lab Games said it is continuing to work on the game and will share more about what’s in the works, including information on Sisters of Battle – the first Warhammer VR game, Battle Sisters (in the new Not to be confused with opens. tab) – in the near future. In the meantime, the Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector Demonic Update is now live and you can find the full patch notes below.
