Apparently there was a cancelled Warhammer RPG in the works that Nexon was funding, and it was aiming to be on PC (and potentially consoles) even though Nexon is mostly known for mobile stuff. The big bummer is that it was an Age of Sigmar game—something we just don’t get enough of—and it wasn’t another “you’re a Stormcast” situation. From the article, the project was called Warhammer AoS: Dark Frontier, and what we got to see was a mix of genuinely awesome concept art plus some early gameplay/test footage before Nexon pulled the plug. I walk through the concept art first, and it’s honestly really strong: Cities of Sigmar vibes all over it, lots of Steelhelms, a Whisper Blade, and a very Gyran-feeling “corrupted keep in the woods” Nurgle threat. Then we get into footage showing the basics you’d expect from an action RPG: light/heavy attacks, shield play, dodging, target lock, sprinting, skills, items, and even some platforming/traps. There’s also a “switch hero” option that made me wonder if it was drifting toward a gacha-style roster, but obviously that’s speculation. My takeaway is simple: I’m disappointed it’s gone, but I’m still optimistic. This wasn’t Games Workshop pulling the plug—it was Nexon—so I’m hoping studios don’t get spooked away from making more AoS games. And honestly? As much as people scream “Soulslike,” I think an Age of Sigmar citybuilder could be even cooler.
