Best Warhammer games: A marine in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2.

But if you really boil it all down, Warhammer is about amazing settings and has given us some of thebest strategy gamesof all time. The fantastical landscapes of the World-That-Was and the future hellscapes of the 41st millennium may be packed with lore, but fundamentally, they’re sandboxes for you to stomp around in – epic backdrops for your own stories of triumph and defeat. It’s this sandbox quality that the best Warhammer games exploit, taking advantage of the decades of world-building and the thousands of tantalizing narrative threads to generate rich worlds for you to conquer and (in all likelihood) liberally coat in blood.

10. Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin

A Lord of Change fighting soldiers of Sigmar in Realms of Ruin, one of the best Warhammer games.

Developer:Frontier DevelopmentsPlatforms:PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/SReleased:2023

If that’s you, Realms of Ruin is probably your best bet. Eagerly anticipated on the basis of its developer’s fine pedigree, Realms of Ruin promised a real-time strategy experience that brought the warring factions of the Mortal Realms to vivid life. In this sense, at least, the game is a stirring success, but there are some unorthodox design decisions that puzzle more often than they delight – the inability for units to withdraw from an engagement without having to hotfoot all the way back to base is a particular head-scratcher. It may not be one of thebest RTS gameswe’ve ever played, but fans of the source material may want to give this handsome but idiosyncratic RTS a chance. Everyone else would probably be better off sticking with the World-That-Was (or their sprue cutters).

9. Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector

Scale up the squad-sized tactics of Mechanicus and Chaos Gate: Daemonhunters and you’ll get something resembling Battlesector, in which you control an entire army of ceramite-clad superhumans. To secure victory as the Blood Angels over the course of a 20-mission campaign, you’ll need to carefully exploit Battlesector’s momentum system – which rewards you with valuable extra actions and powerful special abilities for securing kills while up close and personal.

It’s a thematic touch that underlines the particularly ferocious nature of the Blood Angels chapter, but it also handily raises the skill ceiling on an already smart strategy experience. Like many others, I overlooked Battlesector at launch (the incredibly generic name didn’t exactly help it stand out in a busy year for Warhammer-y games), but this is one fight that’s worth seeking out.

8. Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun

Developer:Auroch DigitalPlatforms:PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo SwitchReleased:2023

Furthermore, the red ones actuallydogo faster. This is the side of Warhammer 40,000 that Boltgun embraces, combining cartoonish ultraviolence with the lo-fi, heavy metal trappings of early FPS classics such as Quake and Doom. The result is a joyous celebration of cool, dumb fun that propels players forward with all the pace and impact of a bolter shell.

7. Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus

6. Warhammer 40,000: Darktide

Fighting a horde of poxwalkers in Darktide, one of the best Warhammer games.

Developer:FatsharkPlatforms:PC, Xbox Series X/SReleased:2023

And that’s not entirely fair, since the moment-to-moment experience of lasgunning Poxwalkers is every bit as satisfying as stabbing Skaven in Vermintide 2. The expanded arsenal of ranged weapons - which satisfyingly kick, roar, and pzzzap in your hands - only adds to the experience, while melee combat is just as weighty and viscera-strewn as ever.

5. Total War: Warhammer 3

Forces of Nurgle marching in Total War: Warhammer 3, one of the best Warhammer games.

Developer:Creative AssemblyPlatforms:PCReleased:2022

Every installment in Creative Assembly’s superlative strategy series has its charms, but the third outing is a particularly good entry point for anyone looking to dip their toe into the roiling waters of the war-torn World-That-Was. Partly, that’s down to the game’s excellent prologue-tutorial, which provides a fairly seamless on-ramp for even novice generals, but it’s also the product of eight years of tweaks and refinements to everything from UI design to campaign structure.

Once you’ve earned your stripes, you’ll discover a sandbox of warfare packed with diplomacy, backstabbing, strategy, and gibbering hordes of chaos daemons - all rendered in exquisite detail. And now, two years on from launch, Total War: Warhammer 3 has benefitted from a raft of judicious patches and improvements, as well as a large catalog of (admittedly, often quite expensive) DLC.

4. Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader

A character screen and inventory in Rogue Trader, one of the best Warhammer games.

Developer:Owlcat GamesPlatforms:PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/SReleased:2024

Those coming to Rogue Trader expecting the dazzling polish and generous approachability of Baldur’s Gate 3 may struggle with this game’s tooth-chipping levels of crunch. But if your experience of the 40k setting has so far been limited to space marines shooting stuff, Rogue Trader makes for a dizzying introduction to the darker corners of this strange and sprawling galaxy.

Space Marine 2 directors on defying trends to find success: “Somebody was willing to take that risk instead of making another battle royale”

Developer:Saber InteractivePlatforms:PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/SReleased:2024

Since the release of the very first edition of Warhammer 40,000 way back in 1987, space marines have been the uncontested stars of the setting, adorning the covers of rule books, boxed sets, novels, video games, and Panini sticker albums. That ubiquity is a double-edged sword, though, and it can create the feeling that Space Marines are a bit pedestrian - the humdrum default in a galaxy of bizarre and bloody variety.

2. Warhammer: Vermintide 2

Fighting Skaven in Vermintide 2, one of the best Warhammer games.

Developer:FatsharkPlatforms:PC, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/SReleased:2018

Picture the breathless multiplayer action of Left 4 Dead. Now, replace the shambling undead with conniving ratmen, and switch out the bullet-spewing arsenal for a rack of gleaming longswords. If that sounds at all enticing (and frankly, how could it not?), the Vermintide series offers a near-endless torrent of skittering foes for you to bash, slash, and impale from a first-person perspective.

While the original Vermintide set a high bar, its sequel has the more active community, as well as a handful of worthwhile improvements to the first game’s formula. The addition of selectable ‘careers’ for each character, for instance, injects even more variety and longevity to a line-up that was already pretty great at catering to different playstyles.

If Vermintide 2 has given you the co-op bug, here is our list of thebest multiplayer gamesthat you can play right now.

1. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War

(Image credit: Relic Entertainment)

A shootout between squads in Dawn of War, one of the best Warhammer games.

Developer:Relic EntertainmentPlatforms:PCReleased:2004

Some diehards may prefer the pared-back, RPG-inflected action of its successor, Dawn of War 2, but the fast-paced base-building and screen-filling firefights of the original represent the chaotic pinnacle of this real-time strategy series. Dawn of War 3, meanwhile, is very much the Luke Hemsworth of the trilogy - there’s nothing wrong with it per se, it just has two more famous and beloved siblings. Who are also taller.

Fancy something a bit cheerier? Step outside the grimdark future with thesebest sci-fi games.
