First screens for Warhammer 40K: Space Marine surface

THQ has put out screens for it’s RPG Warhammer 40K: Space Marine.

There’s only two – but at least it’s finally something for us to take a gander at.

The game was formally announced last May with an awesome trailer, despite gamers knowing about it for ages it seems.

THQ has said that the Relic developed title will hit during FY12. Still a ways off, but at least we’re starting to see it now.

Except for the year old, leaked gameplay video that is :p

I’m finding it completely impossible to get excited about a game like this, even before I see what it’s really about.

It’s third person. It mixes sporadic, ultra-violent melee with wild ass gunplay. Wow… You made another one of those? Really? You trailblazing mavericks, you.

Thus the reason it is called one of the worst kept secrets in gaming – per Pat’s comment back in May when THQ finally released something for it.

You are mixing “Warhammer 40K: Space Marine” with the Warhammer 40K MMO

the leaked gameplay is from the former which is not coming to PC

and this from the link in my post: “Last night, Farrell also revealed Saint’s Row 3, Darksiders 2, and Warhammer: Space Marine for FY12 with a new Red Faction coming out in FY11.”

This is either going to suck or being amazing. Relic are making it though, maybe with support from Vigil?
