*UPDATE* from E3!
There are more information taken from interviews from the game developers, and here are the juicy bits to take note of :
- The game engine is based on the Darksiders game engine with modifications.
- THQ is working very closely with Games Workshop in regards to the game, so they are not freelancing and going off on their own. Everything is with cooperation and approval from GW. Pretty much anything that gets added into the 40k universe in Dark Millenium will get added to the canon, part of the war, and will receive the blessing of Games Workshop. I sure hope there are interesting characters/new Ork classes made into miniatures (and vice versa)!
- The game is confirmed to still be in pre-Alpha and is mentioned to be more action oriented than a 'traditional' MMO, especially with the gun-based/ranged gameplay elements.
- Eldars are not shown in the trailer but Joe Madureira, Creative Director of THQ has confirmed in an interview here that the panzee Eldars are indeed going to be in the game. Playable or not, is unconfirmed. But in another interview from the game developers where an interviewer ask about Eldar in the game, they laughs about it and mentioned that "You won't be dissapointed". Madureira also mentioned that the Ultramarines chapter is also in the game (also backed up by the concept art images below). To be specific, you could check out the video time from 0.35 - 0.40 seconds about the information above. :)
I've also included more concept arts from the Game Designers (kotaku) :
The Ork Fighta is probably a playable vehicle in the game...so is a beakie Rhino. I'z hope da Orks can loot their Rhinos/Leman Russes/Predators and make it ourz for da taking! :D
