'Warhammer 40k: Eternal Crusade' (ALL) Switches to Unreal Engine 4 - Screens

by Rainier on July 16, 2015 @ 2:25 p.m. PDT

Warhammer 40,000: Eternal Crusade is a 3rd person persistent MMOTPS of the 41st Millenium.

In the game, players choose a Warhammer 40,000 race and fight directly as one of their warriors in massive conflicts for territory. It will be up to each faction’s community to determine their own destiny as they vie for control of an entire planet.

Eternal Crusade's combat is fully action-based, meaning that you hit exactly where you shoot or swing and it's up to your skill whether you pull off a headshot or block that incoming chainsword. In addition, gamepads will be fully supported.

Both ranged and melee weapons have equal emphasis – as in the iconic battles of Warhammer 40,000, combat begins at a distance with guns and heavy vehicle-mounted weaponry before progressing to bloody blade-on-blade action with brutal executions.


Behaviour Interactive's upcoming massively multiplayer online role-playing game, Warhammer 40,000: Eternal Crusade, is now being developed with Unreal Engine 4.

“After evaluating our engine options we decided that Unreal Engine 4 and the team at Epic offered the type of support and the best toolset to make the Warhammer world come to life,” said Rémi Racine, Founder and CEO of Behaviour Interactive. “The sheer amount of productivity tools we get right out of the box have helped the game’s development progress significantly faster, allowing the team to ensure the highest quality at a rate we couldn’t have achieved before.”

“We love being a partner in this project and couldn’t be more thrilled to provide the tools that are helping ship a highly-anticipated MMO like Warhammer 40,000 Eternal Crusade,” said Joe Kreiner, Head of Licensing, Americas at Epic Games. “The team at Behaviour Interactive is a welcome addition to the Unreal family with their vast experience in the gaming industry and successful portfolio of titles.”
