Warhammer 40K is the most popular miniature game in the world, but the franchise also has a rich history in the world of video games. There have been a ridiculous number of games over the past few decades, so we’ve been sifting through them — all the way from the original Space Crusade back in 1992 through to the recently-released Space Marine 2 — to put together our definitive list of the best Warhammer 40K games of all time.
Given that Warhammer 40K is a tabletop strategy game, it makes sense that the Lion El'Johnson’s share of 40K video games have been strategy games — either real-time or turn-based — but there has been a surprising amount of genre diversity too. We’ve had first-person shooters, action brawlers, RPGs; hell, there was even a chess game at one point! With the IP also growing into planned TV shows and movies at Amazon MGM Studios, there’s never been a better time to learn about the Adeptus Astartes, Tyranids, and whatnot.
