In the shadowed ruins of Gladius Prime, a new terror has emerged to contest the planet's war-ravaged surface. Warhammer 40,000: Gladius - Tyranids introduces the Tyranids, a horrifying race unlike any other, joining the battle for dominance with an insatiable hunger. This addition to the Warhammer 40,000 universe brings unique gameplay mechanics that perfectly capture the essence of the Tyranids' relentless drive to consume and evolve, setting them apart from the existing factions in a battle for survival in this dying world.

The Tyranids' approach to warfare is singularly terrifying, emphasizing the cycle of consumption and rebirth. Every unit, from the diminutive Ripper to the towering Tyrant, is but a temporary form, ready to be recycled into the Hive Fleet's biomass pools to fuel the next wave of monstrous creations. This relentless cycle ensures the Tyranids' adaptation and growth, with the battlefield serving as both a source of nourishment and a crucible for evolution.

Key Features

• Biomass Consumption: A core mechanic that allows the Tyranids to harvest biomass from fallen enemies, their own units, and even the environment itself, transforming the landscape into a barren wasteland as they advance.

• Hive Mind Dominance: The psychic might of the Hive Mind guides the Tyranid swarm, enhancing their coordination and ferocity. However, units straying too far from its influence may turn feral, attacking friend and foe alike.

• Adaptive Evolution: Norn Queens craft their broods by assimilating the genetic traits of their prey, granting units specialized upgrades such as toxin sacs, acid blood, and adrenal glands, enabling them to counter a variety of threats.

• Monstrous Units: Field an array of grotesque creatures, each uniquely adapted to its role within the swarm. From swarming Hormagaunts to the burrowing Trygons, the Tyranids bring devastating new tactics to the war for Gladius Prime.

Warhammer 40,000: Gladius - Tyranids is not just another faction; it's a whole new way to experience the game, demanding strategies that embody the Tyranids' relentless drive to devour, evolve, and overcome.
