In the polluted depths of Necromunda, rival Houses battle for power, wealth, survival, and honour. Necromunda: Underhive Wars casts players as leaders of Escher, Goliath, or Orlock gangs, making the struggle more than a series of firefights: each gang is something to customize, develop, and bring through a hostile industrial maze.
Combat draws on the Underhive’s hazardous, vertical terrain. Members can climb raised walkways for tactical advantage, lay traps, and ambush enemies, with gunfights potentially turning into close-quarters melee. The game combines tactical-RPG progression, including new skills and looted equipment, with a narrative campaign and persistent game modes, giving gang development a place alongside individual encounters.
Its play format spans solo play and online battles between four gangs, with multiplayer and cooperative modes also listed.
