THQ reveals new 'Warhammer 40k' game
Publisher THQ has announced that a new Warhammer 40,000 action role-playing game is in the works.

Entitled Space Marine, the third-person title is being developed for Xbox 360 and PS3 by Relic Entertainment, the team behind PC's Dawn Of War.

According to IGN, it will see players take on the role of a genetically toughened Space Marine to fight in squad based teams against hordes of aliens.

Form early impressions, the combat will be quick-paced, brutal and packed with blood as the marines use a variety of weapons such as chain swords, hammers and bolters to fight Orks and other foes.
