I wouldn’t say no to a GSC themed RTS type game.

RTS isn’t perhaps the right genre. But one where you need to nurture your Cult to the Day of Enlightenment.

Perhaps something akin to a God Game type fun?

Orks of course! Alternatively tyranids, but I think it would be hard to make a great game using them as main characters.

Anything else would be too close to thousands of already released games, not necessarily about 40k.

This is probably too niche to ever get a game, but I would love a Mass Effect style game where you play as a Kroot Shaper.

You and your clan fly around the galaxy taking on mercenary contracts for whomever you want to fight for. As you win missions, you consume your foes and level up your soldiers. Basically an upgrade tree style, but you have to take the tree of the enemy you defeat.

The Kroot are so unique in a game that has borrowed so much from other mediums, yet their lore is so underdeveloped. So, failing this, any decent game that prominently features Kroot would make me happy.

Epic Imp Guard leading to epic imp soup … not sure if it has been done but spreading out from home planet pursuing heretics and rallying allies to build into a multi planet campaign would be awesome.

But will GW ever produce a game that is NOT Imperium based?

It's not 40k but have you taken a look at Battletech by Harebrained schemes? it might scratch that itch (and introduce you to a fantastic setting)


as for me what I really want is a proper Inqusition RPG. and I don't mean the hack and slash diablo type. I mean a proper RPG. It doesn't even need to be a high end super special graphic one ala mass effect a "simple" isometric RPG ala the baulder's gate "sucessors" we're seeing of late could work. those games thrive on story and choices etc and a inqusition focused RPG could be a real intreasting one.

Opinions are not facts please don't confuse the two

A Wych arena would be a great setting for a fighting game, Strive has had me daydreaming about this sort of thing too.

I always thought an FPS type game about being a new CSM would be good, just joined the Black legion. And as you progress you can choose your path towards chaos, choosing a god or undivided, each one giving you different powers. Mutations would also be available as upgrades.

Would work well as an arena game, score enough point and mutate into a mutilator

Their entire Warhammer Fantasy attachment for AoS is mostly beast and Chaos races. Blood bowl is mostly non-imperium. the DOW games each have only 2-3 Imperial factions out of 6/7.

The only factions that's never had playable form in some fashion are Custodes.

I would really love to see a 40k version of one of the better versions of Alien VS Predator. Except the playable factions would be Nids/GSC (Alien) DW (Marines) or Aldari (Predetor)

So I am intentionally leaving OUT factions/races that have already received video games based off them. Space Marines, Tau, Titan Legions, Inquisition, etc. I don't know every video game out there for 40k, but I thought the Orks had a video game, guess not. Now I left "other" as an option if you want to see ANOTHER space marine game, or there was something I left out. Please leave your responses in the thread!

Cheers!

If we're going FPS, I'd like to see one like ARMA as Imperial Guardsmen.

In general, I'd also like a RTS like Steel Division or Blitzkrieg II with IG in it. Artillery, fire!

Guardsmen, hear me! Cadia may lie in ruin, but her proud people do not! For each brother and sister who gave their lives to Him as martyrs, we will reap a vengeance fiftyfold! Cadia may be no more, but will never be forgotten; our foes shall tremble in fear at the name, for their doom shall come from the barrels of Cadian guns, fired by Cadian hands! Forward, for vengeance and retribution, in His name and the names of our fallen comrades!
