Another day, another Warhammer game, yes. There’s actually a pretty good interview talking about how and why Games Workshop is licensing out their properties to so many developers now. But one particularly notable Warhammer game is making its first appearance on the App Store right now, as Warhammer 40,000: Freeblade has just popped up on the Singapore App Store. If that name sounds particularly familiar, it’s because Pixel Toys’ mech-stomping game was on stage at the iPhone 6s announcement, and was one of the first games to demo 3D Touch. Now you can try it for yourself if you live in Singapore, or have the means to get it.
I don’t think it will matter just how well-versed you are in the Warhammer 40,000 license to potentially enjoy this one: “giant, chainsaw-wielding robot" is truly the universal language. This one looks interesting enough, and we’ll see just when it goes worldwide, especially as it is a flagship for 3D Touch functionality on the iPhone 6s. Check out the forum thread to chat about the game.
