'Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef' Gets Release Date, Expanded PC Demo With Co-Op Play Later Today - Trailer

by Rainier on June 1, 2022 @ 12:52 a.m. PDT

Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef is a new 2D action-packed platformer where you run and gun your way through the planet, smash anyone standing in your way (even other Orks!)and get your revenge.

Play as a savage warrior of the Green Tide, and become the spearhead of an Ork invasion as you bash, smash and shoot your way through the hive city of Luteus Prime on a mission to retrieve your hair squig and claim vengeance on your warlord! And just maybe become the warboss of a WAAAGH! along the way? Survival of the strongest has never been so violently fun!

Being an Ork has never been this fun! Prepare yourself for a non-stop, action-packed platform game where you bash, smash and shoot your way through a deliciously absurd story. Not only will you take on the Astra Militarum, but also Genestealer Cults, Space Marines and of course other Orks! Anything in your path has to be obliterated so you can complete your mission.

As fights get more intense, the anger inside you keeps building up, until the moment it erupts and all hell breaks loose! WAAAGH! Explode in an invincible storm of bullets and rain destruction down on all enemies who cross your path.

Preparing your loadout is a vital component in kustomizing the way you want to play. Choose between many different weapons split over several categories to fill your loadout. Are you an Ork who likes big explosions? Blast your enemies to bits with the powerful Rokkit Launcha. Do you love it when your gun has a kick? Start pumping with the Boomstikk. Rather be a pyromaniak and turn your enemies to ashes? Then the Burna is your weapon to go.

Us Brainboyz have got some exciting news for you, innit. To celebrate Warhammer Skulls we will be expanding the Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef live demo with additional content! Some of you have already had the chance to play through this additional content at Warhammer World in late April, but now everyone will be able to!

What can you expect from the expanded demo? Let’s find out!

Extra Content

Comparing the expanded demo to the previous demo, we added a new level in the mix as well as an extra cutscene to look forward to. This added level will take you through the motion of becoming the dakka spewing menace you’ve always wanted to be and teaches you important concepts to find your way on Luteus Alpha. The other level that was already present in the previous demo will still be included, but it has been updated with the feedback given by the community.

The added cinematic will answer those pressing questions and paint the scene for what’s to come. Why are we on Luteus Alpha? How did we get there? And most of all, who's the snazzy Warboss snatching your precious hair squig?

Those of you who’ve already played through the previous demo know there is an amazing Goff Rokkband playing their hearts out in the Shanty Town. Those who haven’t, be sure to check it out. Boyz who want to keep on rocking even after the expanded demo, be sure to check out the music video and the brand-new merch recently launched in the Warhammer store.

The Weirdboy

As you all know, in the full game there’ll be four playable classes available, but for now we are keeping it to a second class joining the battle; the Weirdboy. These Boyz are energy-crazy gits that have a lot of crowd-control potential and excel at locking down enemies with all kinds of shocking contraptions. Their toolkit is crafted around manipulating and incapacitating enemies, creating advantageous situations for you and your team! This makes for the perfect combination with the already playable weapon-crazy Flash Git.

Online and Local Co-Op Play

The Boyz who have found us at conventions in the past months already know what it’s like to be backed up by a local buddy on Luteus Alpha. And in this expanded demo we are kicking it up a notch! Supporting online multiplayer, as well as local multiplayer, up to a warband of four people. This is the perfect opportunity to get your warband together, be it online or local, and bash in some ‘umie faces together on a relaxing Summer’s eve!

It has been proven that warbands who slay together, stay together.

The expanded demo will arrive on Steam when Warhammer Skulls is up and running (June 1, 7pm CET).
