Streum On Studio und Focus Home Interactive haben das (große) vierte Update für Space Hulk: Deathwing veröffentlicht. Der Patch vergrößert die Waffenauswahl im Multiplayer und erweitert die Loadouts der Klassen. Außerdem wollen die Entwickler allerlei Verbesserungen in den Bereichen Performance, Stabilität, Ladezeiten (auch im Mehrspieler-Modus) und Anti-Aliasing vorgenommen haben. Weitere Optimierungen und kostenlose Inhaltserweiterungen sollen im Laufe des Jahres folgen.

Der Shooter im Warhammer-40.000-Universum soll später in diesem Jahr als "Enhanced Edition" für Konsolen erscheinen. PC-Spieler werden die Zusatzinhalte der "Enhanced Edition" kostenlos erhalten. Bei Steam wird die PC-Fassung derzeit mit Rabatt (33%; Nutzerreviews: 56% von 3.055 Reviews sind "positiv") angeboten.

"We'd like to thank our dedicated community, whose feedback has been incredibly helpful in our ongoing mission to bring continuous improvements and updates to Space Hulk: Deathwing", sagt Pierrick Le Nestour von Streum On Studio. "There are still many more exciting things to come, as we’ll be supporting our game with free content updates throughout the year."
