Bigben Interactive and Games Workshop have announced a partnership for the development of a console and PC hack-and-slash title based on the Warhammer Fantasy Battles IP.

The game, developed by How to Survive studio Eko Software, will be the first hack-and-slash title in the Warhammer universe. It is set in the Old World, “a dark and bloody continent devastated by the wars against Chaos.” Players will dive into the story and “become a hero” while fighting to survive the desolation.

Additional information on the story, playable races, key realms and geography, and platforms will be announced in the future.
