Customisation plays a crucial role, allowing players to tailor their squad’s weaponry, armour, and abilities to fit their tactical preferences. From brutal close-quarters combat to strategic long-range assaults, every decision can tip the balance of power. The game also introduces a dynamic environment interaction system, turning the battlefield itself into a weapon against the forces of Chaos.
Between missions, players will delve into the research of the mysterious Inquisitor Vakir and undertake efforts to restore their Strike Cruiser, opening new strategic avenues to combat the Bloom’s spread. The fate of countless worlds hangs in the balance, with players making critical decisions on which planets to save and which to sacrifice.
For those seeking to enhance their arsenal, the Purifier Edition offers the exclusive opportunity to recruit Castellan Garran Crowe, a legendary champion of the Grey Knights, into the fray.
