New Enemy Roadmap

[SAINT WEST]

Maybe its obvious, but i rather ask. Do they mean with new enemy just some different Tyrant or a whole new Foe? Like for example could we be fighting Nurgle at some point?

[HERETIC]

maybe necron? considering the story.

[Halundaar]

New enemy is most likely a new elite or a new boss. Not an entire Faction. Would be great though...

[DJTarjan]

i hope for Nurgle and pve maps aboard derlict space ships..

[Jerot]

Considering there are 3 on the roadmap, I highly doubt it's a new faction entirely. Probably just single unit variations, or maybe new bosses that show up in the new missions that can also appear as ambushes randomly.

Sadly, having played alot of Saber backed games, im pretty sure you guys are right.

Man i wish we could slice and dice through Nurgle infested Enemies

[SolarCerberuS]

Id say they are meaning a new enemy unit type not a different enemy faction, there are many Tyranid and Thousand sons units still not in the game.

Hopefully we get an entire new enemy faction but Id be guessing that would be a paid DLC down the road if the game is successful

[Rasluka]

I highly doubt it would be an entire faction, considering how much they have planned.

The amount of work to create new models, textures, AI, animations seems too much for the timeframe.

My thoughts exactly. Currently enemy spawns are fixed to each map, so for example the jungle map only has xenomorphs and no tzeentch units. They will probably add some specials and call it a day.

tbh I'm tired of Nurgle in 40k games. I'd rather see some new storyline and enemy explored, especially 40k is not shy of having the unique ones - there's an entire Alpha legion or Black legion to step in. Iron Legion? Children?

A good 40k game to play is Darktide, in that you play as a reject slicing through Nurgle specific enemy's

How many big budget 40k games have had the World Eaters PCP addicted gym bros running around screaming? I'd love to see some Exalted Eightbound, Berserkers or even a Maulerfiend in this type of game.

I think they'll add Necrons. If you've played the campaign you know...and when someone asked on Twitter the lead dev said "I can't say anything without spoiling future content".

It's definitely just going to fill out the enemy rosters of the existing 2 factions. I'm expecting things like Genestealers and Pink/Blue Horrors to be added. As much as I'd like a whole new faction, no shot they wouldn't charge for that

[Mints]

Genestealers (possibly with Cultists) & Horrors for sure. I wouldn't get your hopes up for a new faction any time soon.

[Nemean Lion]

It's not going to be a new enemy faction, but rather new enemy types within the factions we have.

My money is on Hive Guard, maybe a Tervigon boss/miniboss
