Space Hulk Hits Steam For An August 15th Release
July 29, 2013 by brennon
Space Hulk has hit Steam and you'll soon be able to pick it up on the 15th of August. Check out some more screenshots from the game along with some pre-order bonuses that might whet your appetite...
The game is certainly looking like a nice representation of the board game and since that got lost in the eBay ether a while ago you will now have a chance to play through all the missions and more from the rule book. Graphically it sure looks like it's been made to run on most systems so I wouldn't think people will have a problem grabbing a hold of this.
In terms of pre-ordering the game you can get a hold of these additional bits and pieces for personalising your squad or indeed horde of Genestealers. There is the unique Banner Pole for showing off in multiplayer and the Hive Fleet Kraken skin for your Genestealers. While the banner pole doesn't seem particularly interesting the skins for the factions do.
This does of course mean that we might be seeing skins for both Space Marines and Tyranids in the future. I wonder if anyone has ever done a Chaos Space Marine version of Space Hulk?
Will you be grabbing this?

$30 O.o nah, i’ll wait until is $10 at least, Warmachine: Tactics is $20 and it seems to have a lot more replayability and content than this one. I know that they are different games but $30 is still very expensive.
The price is probably just covering the licensing costs of using GWs ip.
I’ve been looking forward to this.
I never did get anyone to go in for “I’ll trade you this sealed Space Hulk for painting my Space Hulk set…” because, well, painters are expensive. And now I’ll have something that looks better than I’d be able to paint, needs no set up up or clean up, and I can play at at work 😛
Talisman: Digital Edition?
I’ve pre-ordered this. The game looks fantastic in the video previews I’ve seen!
Sure, $30 might be a bit pricey, but I’d rather support these awesome developers, and help get more GW based, quality games out there! Plus, I’m from Australia, so it’s not like there’s any GW product I could buy for $30 that I need. That gets you, what, one finecast model ($28) !
Hmmm… 30 bucks ? Remains to be seen how much bang we get then. All in all I am interested, but there are so many games out there competeing for my time and many are even free… we ll see.
