Today at the Warhammer Skulls Showcase a new style of Warhammer video game was announced. Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster is an action platformer where you play the role of Vihneek, a Skaven assassin.
Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster is being developed by Old Skull Games and published by Dotemu and will be coming to PC, Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2027. This game will be a single-player 2D action platformer.
Vihneek's story is anchored in the rich lore of the Age of Sigmar, where the Skaven have erupted to seize the Mortal Realms for themselves…
As a Skaven and member of the Eshin Clan, Vihneek is meant to follow the directions of the clan masters. However, Vihneek has other plans as the "ambitious killer [is] devoted to ascending to the top of his shadowy Eshin clan at all costs."
Gameplay shows Vihneek taking on Skaven foes, attacking from the dark, and setting traps to move through the various levels of the game.
You can learn more about the game on its Steam Page.
