Today’s the day your Space Hulk journey begins. Game developer Cyanide Studio has rejiggered the beloved Warhammer tabletop game Space Hulk into a new tactics-based video game experience.

In Space Hulk: Tactics, you’ll journey through a massive Space Hulk as either a Space Marine or an alien — both will be customizable through a unique card-based system.

According to the official description, “Their strategies and playstyle are completely different, creating truly asymmetrical multiplayer. Using their numbers and agility to their advantage, the Genestealers are a more aggressive force, but one with less options on how to handle each situation.” For
