The development of Space Hulk: Deathwing, the First Person Shooter for PC and consoles from StreumOn Studio, gains momentum, with the glimpses of the game’s first environments now emerging. Each and every one of the game’s element have been carefully crafted by the talented teams from StreumOn, with flawless regard for detail and respect for the Space Hulk license created by Games Workshop.

This is illustrated in the new trailer Rise of the Terminator. Supported by an original soundrack from band Kadebostany "Walking with a Ghost", its powerful images will immerse you in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Terminators and Genestealers come alive and clash together in a deadly struggle, and this is only beginning.

Space Hulk: Deathwing will release on consoles and PC.

The Summer trailer:

The Launch trailer:

That was well outside the norm for GW-related trailers, but I actually quite liked it.

Edit: game looks like it could be fun too.

I'm looking forward to this one, the music feels out of place though.

The trailer is awesome, still waiting for game play footage but nonetheless awesome trailer.

Thinking about this being a 1st person i cant help but think how awesome this would be in a 3rd person. Think ninja gaiden

Good, it's not just me then!

I was kind of enjoying the music while she was rapping/singing then it went all Mariarchi on us. Trombones/Trumpets + bolter/flamers aren't doing it!

That looks super though. Terminators in large rooms not just corridors seems like a good development on the Spulk universe.

FPS Terminator Squad multiplayer.....whats not to like?

That music was a god awful choice for the setting.

Tone completely off.

I wish relic still had the reigns. The could get the musical tone right.

Ooooo, summer trailer is better!

Go on...

As cool as this trailer is and I'm going to paraphrase a quote from Mr. Yahtzee of Zero Punctuation fame: "A pre-rendered CGI trailer is as useful of informing us about the game as them showing us the plastic they are going to use to wrap the box". I'm going to hold judgement until I see some actual gameplay footage.

Actually, it uses the ingame engine.

Also, added the Summer trailer to OP.

Not gameplay footage, but in-game images.

Honestly I really enjoyed that choice of music. It's great not to have more dour hymnals or metal. Plus the trumpets at the end put me in the mind of spaghetti westerns which if that's what they're going for, I'm think I'm going to enjoy this.

That meets nothing. The "Meet the Team" videos of TF2 fame are made using the Source Engine too but they don't tell you much about the gameplay itself. I'm not saying that this game is going to be bad. Far from it. I think it has some promise. However, I am saying to not get too excited until we see the actual gameplay first.

Why would you want your title to make people think of one of the worst Terminator movies.

Why not Deathwing - "Exterminatus Day".

I guess the title of the song fits with Deathwing (the short-story at least).

The lyrics... hum...

"i don't want another fight" - what?!
"you know man bugs are my only food" - that's better

Music reminds me of that Mortal Combat X trailer, completely ruins the trailer for me.

Should be METAL music to something like this, as cheesy as possible with loud screams and hard rock!

I'm just walking with a ghost
And he's walking by my side
My soul is dancing on my cheek
I don't know where the exit is

I have short hair
And I'm faced with a few complications
So, so if you care
Try to analyse the situation
You know, man
As the leaves fall on the ground
My soul is goin'
Round and round and round

So please, do it well
Just break the spell
Why don't you do it right?
I don't want another fight
I'm not creatin'
My flow with my ego
I'm taking off my hood
And I'm entering deeply in the wood

Wut?

Who listened to this and thought "That's so applicable to genetically altered warriors fighting extragalactic monsters in a Gothic space rock!".

If they want to be clever and pick something that doesn't fit the tone they'll need to try harder. I hope this is just trailer music and doesn't get into the final game.

I hope they have a gameplay tailer on the way because it's a bit of a piss take that they've just produced this and there's nothing else to go on.

The visuals are fantastic, one hell of a trailer. The music's off because it's at a least 3 different styles that might have worked individually, but have been smushed together awkwardly. You can see why: ambient bit for the moody introductory shots, rapping as the action picks up and mariachi as it starts to look like a last stand a la Spaghetti Westerns. Unfortunately the transitions are too harsh and too quick for it to work.

Still, that plasma cannon action

Excellent trailer apart from the questionable music, quite enjoyed the trumpets in a tongue in cheek kinda way, the rest was quite terrible

That music on first trailer made me go full WTF

But looks cool, at least better than Storm of Vengeance or basic Space Hulk - but the graphics look... weird. A bit stiff and sham. I hope final version will look better and smoother.

Anyway, another game beside Vermintide and Mordheim that I can put to my "Must-play" list in 40K/FB genre

HOOOOLY gak THAT MUSIC! Such a brilliant choice. At first I was like "huh"? Then I was like "OH GOD YES". Very inspired choice, I love that they went past the usual "epic strings" type of trailer music. Terminators are truly GANGSTA and also MARIACHI.

Oh and the band is Kadebostany, and now I'm buying their album.

Should have just used some Mariachi barrio gangsta raggaton dub mix with some gunshots thrown in.....


Oh wait.

Game looks brilliant, though. Good thinking bringing the funk, GW!

Lets hear a little Isaac Hays Shaft stuff for the next one.

GW, keeping it gangsta since the 40K millienium

I seriously doubt GW had anything to do with that trailer.

Sixty Seconds To What? would have been a much more appropriate song if they wanted a Western feeling.




First forty seconds they could pan through the desolate halls of a vessel to the sound of the xylophone? It would be like exploring the sunken titanic except in the void of space, we could see a child's doll floating in the void, perhaps the desiccated husks of the passengers. The guitar builds tension further as we see the claw marks and acid burns on the interiors and other signs of tyranid infestation. Then they focus on a bulkhead door as the chorus comes in. At about 50 seconds a power fist tears it off the hinges and the organ is there greeting the Angels of Death as they enter the room. Then the trumpets come in and we see the captain staring down genestealers which are scuttling along the walls, floor, and ceiling. The two sides tear into each other with gunfire and claws.

Then you see the aftermath of the fight as the xylophone returns. Both sides completely wiped out.

I am so hyped for this.

HYPED I SAY!



As far as the music goes, I like it. It's not what I want to be hearing in the background while I'm in-game, but I think it'd work as backing track to the trailers/credits.

Animation was great. Music was horrible.

I really enjoyed the visuals but disliked the music, so I have done a simple audio edit to the video. Hope you enjoy

That Summer trailer's amazing! The stormbolters look really good ... such attention to detail throughout. This could be a lot of fun.

I wonder how responsive it'll be? Lumbering Terminators are fine in the fluff but it might grate a little in an FPS.

Can't believe the reaction to the music is so negative. Do you really want nothing but the tired old epic choir/The Rock soundtrack? I think it was a brilliant choice that really puts a different spin on the Space Marine concept. The music is at odds with the traditional image of gothic, grimdark epicness, which is why it works so well. Such a simple thing as a bold choice of music manages to make the Marines appear more human and show another side of the 40k universe, which is much more interesting to me than piling on the church organs and latin choirs like we see in every other trailer of this type. I must've watched it at least 10 times at this point, and it only gets better.

Obligatory "don't Bolters use case-less ammunition?" comment. That's probably what bugged me the most.
