    • Distinctly Deadly Playable Characters: Master different playstyles and arsenals while cleansing your enemies in the name of the Emperor as the all-new, agile, blade-wielding Sister of Battle Nyra Veyrath, or saw heretics into meaty pieces as the hulking one-man army returning from the original Boltgun, Ultramarine Malum Caedo.
    • The Grim Darkness of the 41st Millenium: Never-before-seen enemies hailing from different factions with striking recreations of the Warhammer 40,000 universe have surprises in store for veteran fans.

Malum and Nyra must now race to cleanse the corruption powering Vashtorr’s daemonic machinations in a crucial effort to banish the infamous demigod back to the Warp.
    • Roaring Original Music: Growling guitars and hammering drums deliver the perfect backdrop for grinding flanks of enemies into pixelated heaps of gore, with an all-new composition from Mick Gordon (DOOM (2016), DOOM Eternal) serving as the soundtrack’s crown jewel.
