Double the Auroch Digital Demo Carnage and More in Warhammer Skulls Showcase 2026
/Earlier today, we took part in the 10th annual Warhammer Skulls Showcase, where we revealed TWO new demos for our upcoming Warhammer titles!
Watch all the announcements in the Warhammer Skulls Showcase below (starting at TIME) or read on to find out more.
Warhammer Survivors
In Warhammer Survivors’ Skulls Showcase debut, we highlighted a wide array of exciting reveals that we couldn’t wait to share with the community! Both Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar universes featured throughout the trailer, and we hope you managed to catch everything we had to show... 👀
Here’s an overview of what we revealed:
Play the demo - your first taste of pixelated chaos and carnage to come!
Defend the remnants of an Imperial Bastion from swarms of Tyranids as Malum Caedo or slay Skaven across the ashen plains of The Great Parch as the legendary Stormcast Eternal warrior, Neave Blacktalon.
This will be the first chance you will have to play the demo for Warhammer Survivors and we can’t wait to hear what you think!
Play the demo on Steam now! - https://store.steampowered.com/app/3669620/Warhammer_Survivors/
The announcement and release of the Warhammer Survivors demo was just one of the things we announced at Warhammer Skulls. See more of what we announced below!
Newly revealed characters and enemy factions
The forces of Chaos are on the march, arriving in the form of the disgustingly resilient Death Guard and the savage and bloodthirsty Blades of Khorne. Fortunately, a host of new champions from the Imperium and forces of Order are ready to stand against them including:
Three* new besieged battlefields shown today!
Hammerhal
The legendary city of Hammerhal, grandest of the Free Cities, spans the two realms of Aqshy and Ghyran connected by the colossal Stormrift Realmgate.
In Warhammer Survivors, the city is besieged by two Chaos forces: Skaven on one side, and the Blades of Khorne on the other. Players will be able to move between the city via the Stormrift Realmgate, changing up which biome they’re in – and which enemy faction they fight!
Gallowdark
The Gallowdark is a derelict space hulk – a conglomeration of ships pressed together over many centuries, filled with buckled corridors, bulkheads, and jagged metal.
In Warhammer Survivors, the feculent formed Death Guard stomp through the tight, panic-inducing and corrupted corridors of the Gallowdark.
The Hobby Table
Hunker down in the Hobby Table and destroy a mixture of enemy factions amongst the Warhammer paint pots and cutting mats of the stage, all while weaving through tools that could appear on anyone’s hobby desks.
*or was it? 👀
We have a host of new content to share with you leading to release. Keep your eyes on our socials in the future to see what else we have planned for Warhammer Survivors! 👀 Until then, play the demo on Steam!

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 returned to the Warhammer Skulls Showcase for the second year running to reveal a brand-new demo!
Heed the call of battle and play our brand-new Steam-exclusive demo for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3115160/Warhammer_40000_Boltgun_2/
Lock in as either Malum Caedo or Nyra Veyrath and experience two of the new levels from Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 ahead of its launch later this year.
Face the untamed wilds of a Death World and explore an overgrown mangrove swamp swarmed with deranged Nurgle daemons and cultists. But enemy forces aren’t the only dangers you’ll need to watch out for in this level...
In our second level, embark through a frozen battlefield and visit an icy Imperial facility overrun with the forces of Chaos. There you’ll battle the new Khorne enemies - if you dare to break the ice!
Between two playable characters, multiple difficulties, and several secrets to discover, we hope you enjoy the demo for Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 and look forward to hearing your feedback!
