Total War: Warhammer 40k – Grimdark Galaxy Warfare Ignites at TGA 2025!

Total War Warhammer 40k

The Peacock Theater trembled under the weight of heresy last night as Creative Assembly and SEGA unleashed Total War: Warhammer 40,000 at The Game Awards 2025, thrusting the award-winning strategy series into the grimdark future of Games Workshop’s iconic universe. Announced by Stranger Things star and Warhammer fanatic David Harbour, the reveal trailer—a symphony of bolter fire, chainsword roars, and Ork WAAAGH!—has exploded to millions of views, crowning #TotalWar40k the night’s top trend on X.

Blending Total War’s signature turn-based empire-building with colossal real-time battles, players will command iconic factions in a galaxy-spanning war for survival. The cinematic opener? A Space Marine Dreadnought pulverizing Necron scarabs amid a Tyranid swarm, Orks crashing the party with looted tanks, and Imperial Guard lasguns lighting up the void. Customize armies with grimdark flair—think Ultramarines drop pods slamming into hive fleets or Necron phalanxes resurrecting mid-melee. Launch roster: Four factions confirmed (Imperium, Orks, Necrons, Tyranids?), with deeper lore dives promising planetary invasions, orbital bombardments, and endless heresy.

No release date yet—”coming soon” to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam)—but the hype train is warp-speed. Creative Assembly, fresh off the Warhammer Fantasy trilogy (over 40M units sold), calls it “one of our most ambitious games ever.” Harbour’s on-stage fist-pump? Priceless: “In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war… and now, Total War!”
