Stealth-action is probably not the first thing you think of when you hear “Warhammer,” but sometimes the most satisfying experiences are the most surprising. Announced during Warhammer Skulls 2026, Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster is a 2D action-platformer starring a very talented–and disturbed–hooded assassin.
Starring the “ratman” Vihneek, Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster will see you making use of stealth abilities and traps to move around your enemies or deliver death from the shadows. The cartoony art style might suggest something a bit lighter at first glance, but this is a very violent, very Warhammer experience. And as you can see in the teaser trailer, Vihneek might be losing it, just a little bit.
“Vihneek’s story is anchored in the rich lore of the Age of Sigmar, where the Skaven have erupted to seize the Mortal Realms for themselves,” the official announcement said. In general, killing everything in your path is a reliable strategy for Warhammer video games, and Vihneek seems up to the task.
Publisher Dotemu has plenty of experience with 2D action games, including last year’s excellent Absolum and the recent Marvel Cosmic Invasion. We’ll have a little while to wait before we find out if
