Warhammer Age of Sigmar PvE Game Announced For PC And Mobile By Nexon

Nexon has announced that they will be working on a PvE game with the Warhammer Age of Sigmar license, though few other details were given.

They did announce that the game would be launching globally- presumably a simultaneous launch, though that wasn’t confirmed, either.

Instead, they did manage to announce the platforms on the game, seeing a PC, Console and Mobile release for the upcoming title.

Here’s the description of the new PvE Age of Sigmar game, courtesy of Nexon Games:

Built on the legacy of Age of Sigmar®1, the new Virtual World will feature a socially interactive player-versus-environment world supported by Nexon’s world-class Live Operations for sustaining the fun with new content and service.

It is an era of war. The Mortal Realms have been despoiled. Ravaged by the followers of the Chaos Gods, they stand on the brink of destruction. Players will command the war hosts of the God-king Sigmar and his allies as they fight to reignite hope and bring order back to the realms. Each season, players will collect characters and enter new realms. Each character comes with unique options, stories and gameplay. Players will be able to customize their characters and work cooperatively to guide how sections of the Realms are retaken.

“Under the creative direction of Games Workshop®, Warhammer® has become one of the world’s most exciting and popular game franchises, and Nexon is the global leader in developing Virtual Worlds,” said Colin Robinson, Nexon Vice President of Development Partnerships. “We look forward to extending this legacy that will bring the creative excellence of Warhammer® to a Virtual World for PC, consoles and mobile platforms.”

“As one of the world’s largest game publishers, Nexon is the ideal long-term strategic partner to bring Warhammer Age of Sigmar®1 to life in a unique new way that will appeal to gamers the world over,” Jon Gillard, Head of Global Licensing for Games Workshop®. “Nexon’s world-class Live Operations and infrastructure offers exciting opportunities for engaging current and new Warhammer® fans in this massive universe. We’re really excited to see the fruits of this collaboration over the coming years.”

Age of Sigmar is the Warhammer off-shoot of Warhammer Fantasy, featuring new races such as the Stormcast Eternals and Nighthaunt. Considering its newer status in the Warhammer mega-IP, it has less games than the original Warhammer Fantasy and its sci-fi spin, Warhammer 40k.
