One of the pleasant surprises present at the THQ stand at E3 this year was a trailer for Warhammer 40,000: Dark Millennium Online. While perusing their stand, dodging rogue Space Marines and booth babes, I couldn’t help my eyes from constantly darting back to the trailer that was playing over and over on a 46 inch LCD panel.<\/p>\n

This life-size Space Marine suit is possibly the coolest thing I’ve ever seen<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

A THQ representative explained that the game is still a while out, and they are holding back with information for now. We do know that it is being developed by Vigil Games, who bought us the hit slash-fest Darksiders earlier this year. It will be released exclusively for PC, and a little birdie at the show may have let slip that it is currently on track for a September 2011 release. The same little birdie told me not to write that down, so don’t go clearing your calendar just yet. <\/p>\n

I was told that Warhammer 40,000: Dark Millennium Online will most probably be THQ’s primary focus at next year’s E3.<\/p>\n

I love the Warhammer universe, and I am no stranger to the life-sucking potential of a good MMO, so this is definitely one of the more exciting blips on my longish term radar. <\/p>\n

Below is the trailer that THQ had on repeat throughout the show. It is comprised solely of gameplay footage. <\/p>\n
