We're had a number of varied Warhammer titles on Nintendo hardware in recent years, and now we have another one in the Warhammer 40,000 universe - to be precise - on the way to Switch.
The quirkily-named Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef is a run and gun title due on the eShop (and various other storefronts) in 2022. If the art-style seems familiar in the trailer above that's because it's from the same team that brought Guns, Gore & Cannoli and its sequel to Switch. Back then they were known as Crazy Monkey Studios, but has since changed name to Rogueside; the team's been busy on titles War Party and Hidden Through Time in the past few years.
This Warhammer 40,000 game is certainly a return to those shooter roots, and a bit of the official blurb is below.
Never enough Dakka! Destroy your foes using a great arsenal of weapons and rain destruction down upon them. No one can stand in your way! Massive explosions and flying body parts ain’t never been this fun!
WAAAGH! Feel the emotion and violence build up until it bursts out as a storm of bullets! Violence begets violence as the massive destruction you cause builds up into a full blown unstoppable WAAAGH! Because Orks are made for two things: fighting… and winning!
Orks together strong! Grab your friends and take on the forces of the Astra Militarum, the Genestealer Cults and the Space Marines together. Or you know, bash their head in instead and determine who is the fiercest Ork in the clan!
We think it looks like a lot of fun; let us know what you think in the comments.

looks like a flash game from 2006
I was about to say the same thing.
I like the look of the game. I like the style. I just don't like paper pin animation. It makes everything look so stiff
Weird... "teef" where I live means "b!tch". It's weird to see it in an English sentence.
I was already automatically thinking about censoring it, but I hate censorship and the word actually just means a female dog so why even censor that anyway?
Because it's the internet, and it's probably programmed to automatically ring the censor bell... There, I replaced the i with an exclamation mark for those who can't handle words. Now they don't know what I wrote. Still weird, because of how negative people act about the word I also hate it when someone calls one of "my" (real) "b!tches" "teef". Censorship has destroyed the language.
@GrailUK Yeah it looks like the kind of cheap After Effects animation I did back in college.
I’m hoping this style of animation is a small fad and just fades away. I was interested until I saw it in motion. I’m imagining that it’s the most cost effective way to get to the end result and it shows.
@OldManHermit Not wanting to sound like I'm belittling that, but to me it looks like once you have made your paper doll, it doesn't require too much thought to make it move. Super easy in fact.
Reminds me of the Guns, Gore & Cannoli games.
Pretty damn cool.
@Magician thats because it is from the same developer.
I'm a bit baffled at you guys for the reception of that trailer. If you played Guns, Gore & Cannoli 1 and 2 you would know that looks can be misleading, its one of the finest run'n'guns I played in this hardware generation and now you put a WH 40.000 license on top of that? This is a instant winner in my books.
@Shiryu i have learned to try and ignore alot of these dudes cause half of em talk outta of there asses..
@Shiryu Yeah, same, re: confusion at the initial batch of comments. For some reason I read them all before watching the video, so was expecting something diabolical, but instead was like, "Oh, that looks... pretty much like what I expected... and that's a damn fine thing." I am definitely there for this one.
Sounded awesome, but less enthused after watching the trailer...
