Slitherine have announced the Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector console versions are now available on both PlayStation and Xbox platforms.
Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector first released on Windows PC back in July, and has now made its way to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. These console ports were released alongside versions for the Windows Store and Xbox Game Pass.
Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector is a turn-based strategy game set in the aftermath of the Devastation of Baal. Players are tasked with purging the last remnants of Hive Fleet Leviathan that linger on Baal as Sergeant Carleon and his fellow Blood Angels. The console release lacks the PC version’s asynchronous multiplayer, and instead includes local multiplayer.
Here’s a new trailer for the Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector console versions:
The console ports coincide with some new content for the PC version, including a pair of DLC packs: the Blood Angels Elites and the Tyranid Elites. Both DLC packs add a pair of new units for the Blood Angels (Assault Terminators and Sanguinary Guard) and Tyranids (Broodlord and Hive Guard). The DLC packs are $1.99 each. The PC version also received a big free update that you can read about here.
