Battlefleet Gothic Armada II Launches New Features

Today there is a new trailer and new features allowing even larger multiplayer games!!!! I have played the larger games in multiplayer already (listed as in beta)

I will have to admit really liking this game and playing it late into the night. While I have barely touched the campaigns, I have delved into the game with friends and multiplayer. The game has had a hard learning curve for me, getting slaughtered by other players possibly my first 15 or so games, but has finally turned into a game where I have been able to compete and win just as many as I lose as both tactics ship selection and the game overall become even more well known.

Battlefleet Gothic: Armada II, the huge space RTS from Tindalos Interactive and Focus Home Interactive, launched on Steam two weeks ago to great reviews on Steam and in the press. Bringing to life the dark future of Warhammer 40,000’s space battles like never before, see how Battlefleet Gothic: Armada II impressed in the new Accolade Trailer.

There will also be another new game mode that allows for humongous battles with incredible, legendary ships.In addition, competitive seasons, tournaments, and a new boarding system are on the way. Read all about it over on Steam. This was all possible thanks to the incredible dedication and support we received from fans of the game, and we’ll be continuing to improve Battlefleet Gothic: Armada II to serve them.


Battlefleet Gothic: Armada II is available now on Steam. Further information about content updates will be announced in the coming months.



ABOUT BATTLEFLEET GOTHIC: ARMADA II
Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 is the new real-time strategy game adapted from Games Workshop’s famous tabletop game that portrays the epic space battles of the Warhammer 40,000 universe.


Expanding on the groundwork laid out by the first game, Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 is a full-blown sequel - bigger, richer, more impressive and more ambitious than the original game. It will include, at launch, all 12 factions from the original tabletop game and its expansions it is based on: the Imperial Navy, Space Marines, Adeptus Mechanicus, Necrons, Chaos, Aeldari Corsairs, Aeldari Craftworld, Drukhari, the T’au Merchant and Protector Fleets, Orks, and finally, the Tyranids.


The latest dramatic story development in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, the Gathering Storm and the 13th Black Crusade, serves as the canvas for three extensive and dynamic campaigns with high narrative values, focusing on the Tyranids, the Necrons, and the Imperium. Explore the systems in the Eye of Terror, with or against renowned characters such as Belisarius Cawl, Guilliman and more.


Protective gear allows players to explore dangerous off-limit radioactive zones inaccessible to less-equipped opponents - but filled with powerful loot. All the while, the howls of mutated creatures echo through the wasteland. Wolves and much worse lay in wait for foolish players who don’t keep their wits about them.


With bigger battles, refined gameplay, improved multiplayer modes and features for a better and more balanced online experience, as well as improvements across the board and even more customisation options for fleets and ships, Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 promises to be the ultimate Warhammer 40,000 space battle experience.
