The verdict
A gorgeous, atmospheric 40K Terminator horde shooter, but repetitive with dumb AI and thin content. Skip it in favor of the free Enhanced Edition.
Great for
Warhammer 40K fans who want a slow, atmospheric Terminator shooter, best with friends and on sale
Main risk
Repetitive, shallow gameplay with dumb AI, and the Enhanced Edition makes this version redundant
What players love
Fun co-op with friends
