VR game Warhammer 40K: Battle Sister has launched today on Steam. This highly immersive, all-action shooter has been highly anticipated for Steam VR and is the first Warhammer 40K game built from the ground up specifically for VR. It promises the ultimate in futuristic, visceral combat. The game is set in the Warhammer 40K universe and follows the story of the Adepta Sororitas, two legendary futuristic warriors, on their mission to battle against the dark forces of Chaos.
Taking place in the far dystopian future of the 41st century, Warhammer 40K: Battle Sister thrusts its players into a war-torn universe and arms them with a variety of highly powerful weapons, such as the iconic bolters, flamers, power swords, plasma pistols and chainswords. The game features an action-driven, darkly exciting story. In addition, it will also feature different modes such as co-op Horde multiplayer as well as the adventure-packed main campaign mode.
The game was released today alongside a minor day one patch, which has updated the game for cross-play compatibility. Initially released back in 2020 for the Oculus Quest and then the Rift a year later, Warhammer 40K: Battle Sister‘s high-intensity gameplay is now available to Steam VR players. Reviews of the game’s release on the Oculus Quest and Rift were largely positive, on the whole. Additionally, the announcement of today’s launch on Steam has met with favourable responses over on social media, with some fans even asking when the title may be coming to PSVR or PSVR2. As far as the answer to that question goes, fans will simply have to watch and wait.
Fans of the Warhammer 40K franchise are sure to be pleased with this latest news. If action-based shooting, heavy-duty and gory boss fights against giant mechs and galactic exploration in VR are your thing then you can get yourself into Warhammer 40K: Battle Sister over on Steam right now.
