What is Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector?
An isometric, turn-based strategy game set in Warhammer 40,000’s 41st Millennium.

Skirmish, conquest, last-stand, and PvP modes provide battles outside the campaign.

What players say
87% of 6,870 reviews are positive · 86% of 30 in the last 30 days
Players praise the tabletop-like army battles, tactical combat systems, and Blood Angels campaign. Their dominant complaint is that the base game includes only Blood Angels and Tyranids, while most other factions and some additional units or campaigns require paid DLC.
