Vampire Survivors has a lot to answer for, inventing a whole new template for games to follow. One example is Warhammer Survivors, which is a particularly interesting case.
Just announced for PS5, Warhammer Survivors is developed by Auroch Digital, but also involved is Poncle, the team behind Vampire Survivors. This upcoming new game actually uses the exact same engine and tech as Poncle's breakout hit, which is why it looks so dang similar:
Despite its similarities, Warhammer Survivors is its own game. Featuring Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar characters, this is a roguelite horde survival title in which you'll avoid clusters of enemies, gradually increase your power, and level up your weapons and powers to an absurd degree.
The game also has several playable characters, including Chaplain Fo’Baran, Knight-Commander Pask, The Legend of Catachan, and plenty more.
If you're a big fan of Vampire Survivors, Warhammer, or both, there's a good chance this will be up your street.
There's no release date in place yet, but it's planned to launch later this year on PS5.

That's just a little too close for me. It looks like a VS expansion/crossover.
@LikelySatan honestly with Poncle developing it I would’ve rather had this be an expansion because of all the weapon and passive synergies it would’ve given us.
Can't get enough of these types of games so day 1 when it drops.
It looks good but as a WH fan I hope we get lots of new attacks that match weapon types and not just reskinned VH movesets
I've never played a Warhammer game as they are typically in genres I'm not a fan of (CRPG, fps etc). But I love me a good Survivors clone so I may check this out
@ day one buy.
The headline saying “copies” is a bit misleading with Poncle literally making the game.
Personally I would like to see more games in this genre with unique art styles and things.
I’m still gonna play this game though. 😅
I think the name for this genre should be Auto-Shooting Swarm games. 😉
