FTL meets Warhammer 40,000 in tactical space sim Void War
1 min read
Summary
Void War is a new PC space combat game, releasing May 30th, that resembles Subset Game’s FTL: Faster Than Light
Players command ancient starships through a war-torn universe against cultists, zealots and ravening corsairs
Navigation is through a node-based roguelite system map, encompassing story and trading opportunities along with combat
Player interaction includes real-time battles that can be paused for micromanagement, as well as resource allocation across ship systems and crew management
The game’s art direction is criticised as being too plain, although the setting is horrific, in line with Warhammer 40,000
Backer content indicates a wealth of ship variety, commanders, crew, weapons and modules in the full game release
