The Arena also boasts its share of threats. A horde of Wracks, frenzied berserkers who thrash through any players unlucky enough to get swarmed. Throughout Early Access, the arena will be evolving with brand new monsters like the lumbering Grotesque, and a host of new maps and game modes.

A Free-to-play, MOBA/Shooter Hybrid set in the 40k Universe? And I can play as Ghazghkull?! Okay – I’m IN!
