What is Necromunda: Underhive Wars?
This third-person, turn-based tactical RPG takes place beneath Necromunda’s hive cities, where rival gangs fight for power and survival. You build a gang of Escher, Goliath, or Orlock fighters, then guide them through battles using raised walkways, traps, and ambushes. Fighters gain skills and equipment between battles, and you can play a story campaign or fight other gangs online.
For you if...
- +you enjoy building a gang across successive battles
- +you like using height and traps in tactical fights
Not for you if...
- −you prefer real-time action over turn-based battles
- −you want to control one fighter rather than manage a gang
What players say
