In case you’re a fan of turn-based tactical fight, Menace is at the moment the most well liked sport to observe. Developed by Overhype Studios, the crew behind Battle Brothers, it combines difficult and immersive tactical battles with an attractive strategic layer, its mechanics and aesthetics being impressed by the likes of Warhammer 40,000.
Stranded in a sector that was reduce off from galactic civilization, gamers not solely must cope with human threats on this sport — a mysterious alien pressure, the titular Menace, rears its ugly head. To this point we solely had descriptions and idea artwork to present us an impression of those freaks, however a brand new cinematic trailer for the sport has lastly given us an in depth have a look at the body-horror monstrosities we’ll must combat.
What’s extra, the trailer gives yet one more connection to Warhammer 40,000, as a result of it was directed by none apart from Astartes creator Syama Pedersen and produced by Hoplite VFX of Star Wars 212 fame. It’s principally an all-star job pressure on the subject of creating footage of a firefight between small squads.
The video reveals forces of marines and pirates annihilating one another in a rundown constructing, just for the corpses to be dragged down into the depths by an unknown presence on the finish, and be dissolved inside a pool of icky goo from which a hideous creature emerges that I can solely describe as a Terminator with fleshy bits. Discuss a trailer match for Halloween, eh?
Menace is coming to PC on February 5, 2026.
