Eisenhorn: Xenos follows the journey of Gregor Eisenhorn (voiced by British actor Mark Strong), an inquisitor of the Ordo Xenos – Alien hunters of the Imperium on his quest to hunt down an ancient tome of evil origin.  Set in a dystopian, fantasy universe and following the book’s storyline, players can experience the game through Eisenhorn’s eyes, using stealth, psychic powers and a vast array of weapons to venture forth through an 11-hour single player campaign. It is up to the player whether or not Eisenhorn and his group of comrades complete their mission to save the Imperium from the threat it faces.

Initially scheduled for release on May 19, Pixel Hero Games has announced that their new Warhammer 40k game ‘Eisenhorn: XENOS’ will be postponed until August 2016 so that it can finish development and be released simultaneously on PC and iOS.

“Eisenhorn: XENOS is an epic story, and we’re taking a bit more time to get the game finished and polished to the standard we would like,” said Nader Alikhani, Studio Head at Pixel Hero Games. “This additional development time will also give us the opportunity to launch both the PC and iOS versions of the game at the same time, so both sets of fans can enjoy the game together.”

“Xenos the novel is a fantastically accessible gateway into the Warhammer 40,000 universe, something which we wanted to capture with our adaptation, allowing us to support a brilliant story and great characters with gameplay that players can enjoy regardless of the platform they are playing on,” adds Alikhani.

The Standard PC version is priced at $19.99/£14.99/€19.99. A ‘Deluxe Edition’ featuring a copy of the soundtrack, and a digital art book will be available for $29.99/£22.99/€27.99. The iOS version is priced at $9.99/£7.99.
