Developed by the passionate indie team of Warhammer 40,000 diehards at Streum On Studio (makers of Space Hulk: Deathwing), Necromunda: Hired Gun is fast-paced and brutal, giving you endless options for engaging your enemies. Wall-run, double-jump, and use your wrist-mounted grappling hook to rush, disarm, and evade enemies. And then there’s the upgrades -- everything from your brain to legs and even your pet dog can be enhanced as you earn money from contracts.

Your cyber-mastiff is your only true companion -- half-dog, half-robot, and fully ready to strike in exchange for treats. Your canine friend can warn you of enemies and insta-kill them with a bite to the neck, so keep him healthy in return with the best augments money can buy!

Navigate an ocean of crime and corruption to balance the bloody ecosystem of Necromunda as a merciless hired gun. The money’s good, the dog’s loyal, and the gun’s reliable – but can you survive the hunt?

For the right price, eliminate the most notorious gangers and mutants. Your armory is a sprawling arsenal.

Watch today’s new Enter the Hive trailer for a first glimpse of the people, places, and factions you’ll meet.

Introduce yourself at Martyr’s End, the hub of all the action, contracts, and factions in your little corner of Necromunda. There you’ll meet everyone from Kal Jericho, the infamous bounty hunter who saved your life, to the local barmaid, who will keep you well stocked with information and liquor supplements. It’s also where you gear up, upgrade your bionic augments, customise your character, and decide on your next contract. Even your Mastiff knows where to find treats in this place!

Your bounty hunter in Necromunda: Hired Gun – chosen at the start of the game – is a badass, a loner, and generally sick of the number of people trying to kill them on a daily basis. The complicated machinations of the universe that have led to them being filled with cyber – augmetics mean there’s a wonderful blend of aggression you need to work out as you go hunting for your targets.

You’re fast. Faster than almost anyone else. Fighting is a whirlwind of gunfire, close-range executions, and bullet-dodging. Many of your opponents are trained and ready grunts of their respective houses, but decidedly outgunned. You can dash around an arena, double jump to high places, run along walls to dodge enemy fire and reach new locations – all of it far beyond the capabilities of your average ganger. Coming into contact with a Hired Gun is usually the last thing that happens to anyone in their way, and you can really feel that through the way you play.

A past accident has left this Hired Gun with a variety of body modifications and enhancements. Along with heightened reflexes and a mechanical heart, you now have your very own grappling hook arm. This is great for getting you into the action, where you’re at your most deadly, as well as disarming opponents. It can also be used to zip around levels, making otherwise-impossible traversal of great chasms and huge towers a sinch.

You’re not the only one in the field. Your best bud and partner for life, the honorable cyber-mastiff, is with you on this journey. He’s just as jacked up on bionics as you are, and equally as keen to rid the world of bad guys. He’ll take gunfire for you, climb walls with you, and rip out throats on command. He loves treats, and is at your side with a squidge of his squeaky toy whenever you like.

As well as all the sights, sounds and thankfully not smells of the city, you’ll also be fighting against and alongside the iconic gangs of the Necromunda tabletop game. In addition, Kal Jerico, bounty hunter extraordinaire and last guy you’d ever want to trust, just so happens to be deeply involved with your mishaps and adventures. We won’t spoil anything, but you’ll be seeing a lot of this particular rogue.

How you play Necromunda: Hired Gun is up to you – there’s a whole host of combat styles to go with exactly what brand of violence you wish to bring to those in your way. Every limb can be upgraded, alongside your heart, brain, eyes, and more. This is alongside weapon choices that run the length and breadth of the weird and wonderful armoury of the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Combine the two to express yourself on the battlefield.

So gear up and prepare yourself for a thrilling and violent new experience in the universe of Necromunda. Thanks to your cyber augments, you’ll run across the darkest reaches of the hive city, fly with your grappling hook and hunt the most notorious gangers alongside your cyber mastiff.
