The Carcharodons receive their very first armor pieces with two pauldrons, two helmets and an exclusive chestplate celebrating the mysterious yet beloved prowlers of the outer dark.

Hear, hear! The Chapter Voice Pack 1 is here!

Patch 12 also marks the release of Space Marine 2’s Chapter Voice Pack 1, adding over 1,300 voicelines re-recorded in the unique styles of the Blood Angels, Space Wolves and Black Templars chapters.

Watch the Dark Heresy Combat Gameplay Showcase

Take a look at alpha gameplay from Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy in this new trailer for the upcoming party-based, story-driven cRPG. Access to the Alpha is available with the Collector’s Edition and Developers pack.

Lead investigations, uncover grand conspiracies, master tactical combat, and wage a secret war against heresy. Make tough choices as a conduit of the God-Emperor’s will.

While Dark Heresy’s combat system retains the core principles of Rogue Trader, it also adds new layers: characters can target their enemies’ weak points with both ranged and melee weapons to incapacitate them or do maximum damage to a specific part of the body. They can also break a whole group’s resolve by overwhelming enemies with their prowess and end fights early. This befits agents of the Inquisition, experts at breaking the bodies and spirits of Mankind’s foes.

Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy is coming to PC (Epic Games Store, Steam, and GOG), PlayStation 5 (PS5), and Xbox Series X/S. Become an acolyte of the Inquisition in this grim dark, party-based, story-driven cRPG.

Players can look forward to new reveals of what else the DLC will have in store for them — including the new companion character.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader: The Infinite Museion will be available on PC (Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5 (PS5), and Xbox Series X/S.

Celebrate Black History Month, Lunar New Year, and Valentine’s Day With Marvel Contest of Champions

Marvel Contest of Champions

Kabam has a lot to celebrate this month on its popular mobile fighter Marvel Contest of Champions with Black History Month and powerful Black Super Heroes, Lunar New Year and spectacular rewards, and Valentine’s Day with bundles of sweet treats for the fans and new players. See below for a snapshot of what The Battlerealm has in store for its players this February:

CELEBRATE BLACK HISTORY MONTH IN THE CONTEST

The Contest of Champions is a home to a diverse gathering of Super Heroes from every possible background and origin. This month MCoC is welcoming the formidable leader of the Jabari Tribe M’BAKU along with war veteran, all-star football player, and living anti-matter containment unit BLUE MARVEL! Players will have the opportunity to obtain M’Baku on Feb. 12, while Blue Marvel can be obtained on Feb. 26.

With over 300 Champions in The Contest, players can also add other classic Marvel Super Heroes and villains such as Captain America (Sam Wilson), Jabari Panther, Killmonger, Patriot, Photon, Prowler, and more.

M’BAKU

The charismatic and formidable leader of the Jabari Tribe, is one of Wakanda’s most powerful warriors and a frequent rival of T’Challa. He is a traditionalist, a worshipper of the White Gorilla,

Ghekre, living with his tribe in the isolated mountains away from the rest of Wakanda due to

ideological differences. He and his tribe reject the technological progress embraced by T’Challa’s

leadership. Though often seen challenging T’Challa’s rule, ultimately his motivations stem from a

deep belief in maintaining Wakanda’s ancient traditions.

BLUE MARVEL

Adam Brashear had always been a prodigy—a college football star with multiple Ph.D.s who earned two Silver Stars serving as a Marine in the Korean War. While leading Project: Perseus, an attempt to harness the power of antimatter, Adam and his fellow Marine Conner Sims were caught in a reactor explosion. Conner was vaporized, but the reaction stabilized within Adam’s body, granting him the amazing powers of the Blue Marvel. When his identity as a Black man was revealed in a titanic battle alongside the Avengers, Adam was asked by the President to retire, as the country was not ready for the most powerful man in America to be openly and unapologetically Black during the 1960’s. For decades, he obliged, but after losing much of his family in another accident, he has since returned to stand against the ever present threats of the modern world.
