An official gameplay trailer for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 debuted at IGN Fan Fest 2026, revealing a first look at the Death Guard and Daemons of Slaanesh ahead of the game's 2026 release on PC and current-gen consoles.
The Emperor protects, but a bigger chainsword certainly helps. During IGN Fan Fest 2026, fans got their first real look at Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 through an action-packed gameplay trailer that shows off more of the fast-paced, retro-inspired carnage that made the original indie hit so popular. As reported by IGN South Africa, the sequel is keeping its signature pixelated aesthetic while dialling up the intensity for modern hardware.
This new footage gives players an exclusive look at some formidable new adversaries, including the twisted Daemons of Slaanesh and the resilient Death Guard. For a franchise that thrives on dark atmosphere and relentless combat, bringing these iconic factions into the retro FPS format feels like a natural evolution. The first game proved that players have an endless appetite for throwback shooters that do not sacrifice modern smoothness, and this follow-up looks ready to deliver on that exact formula.
Boltgun 2 is currently scheduled to launch sometime in 2026 across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Whether you are a longtime lore enthusiast or just someone who enjoys turning heretics into pixelated dust after a long day of grinding matches, this is one sequel worth keeping on your radar. You can check out the official gameplay trailer over at IGN South Africa to see the new Daemons in action.
