Warhammer 40,000

Warhammer 40,000 is Games Workshop's grimdark far future, and its video-game catalog is sprawling because the tabletop lore licenses out to almost every genre. The strategy backbone runs through Relic's Dawn of War line, but the same setting fuels squad shooters (Space Marine), boarding-action horror (the Space Hulk games), turn-based skirmishes, fleet combat and CRPGs like Rogue Trader.

The through-line is tone: bolters, zealotry, and a galaxy where the most optimistic outcome is grim survival. Few franchises let a single fiction support both a methodical chess variant and a co-op horde shooter without breaking character.

With dozens of releases spanning RTS, ARPG, FPS and tactics, this is less one game series than an entire imprint built on one merciless universe.

The Warhammer 40,000 franchise spans 39 games, 1 films in the CrossBinge catalog.
