Space Hulk: Deathwing [v 1.06] (2016) PC

Space Hulk: Deathwing is one of the most unusual projects of 2016. This is a really beautiful and fascinating space shooter in which the atmosphere of the universe and compliance with the canon play a much more important role than, directly, the gameplay. An amazing experience that will definitely appeal to the fans, but at the same time can scare off an ordinary player.

Plot

According to the plot, a group of space marines from the order of "Dark Angels" receive a signal that in one of the space wanderers it is possible to get information about an imperial ship that disappeared in subspace.

The main character himself is a kind of "Warlock" of the world of Warhammer 40,000, capable of both cutting out genestealers with magic and picking up any of the weapons offered – from a chainsword to a flamethrower. For this, however, the skill tree is responsible, allowing us to create one of the three types of hero:

1. Melee specialist.
2. The Magician.
3. Master of heavy weapons.

Movies in the game

The game art house continues until the very end: the slow and even monotonous shooter in Deathwing is replaced by admiring the beauties of the ship and the schizophrenic visions of the hero, while actions that most resemble hell are constantly taking place around us. What is important, all this can be done online, passing the
