In the ever-evolving landscape of gaming, the Warhammer 40,000 universe has emerged as a beacon of creativity and innovation. Gone are the days when fans had to endure less-than-stellar titles like Fire Warrior. Today, players are treated to a plethora of polished experiences, including the highly anticipated Space Marine 2 and the critically acclaimed Total War: Warhammer series. However, not every enthusiast has the budget for the latest releases, making the Waaaghtober! Humble Bundle an enticing opportunity for those looking to dive into the Warhammer universe without breaking the bank.
What’s Inside the Bundle
This bundle offers an impressive selection of ten full Warhammer PC games and two expansions for just , making it an ideal choice for budget-conscious gamers. The standout titles for Warhammer 40k aficionados include:
- Warhammer 40k: Space Marine Anniversary Edition – the complete original 2011 version, complete with all DLCs.
- Warhammer 40k: Battlesector – a highly addictive turn-based strategy game that captures the essence of tabletop wargaming.
- Warhammer 40k: Battlesector – Blood Angels Elites DLC and Warhammer 40k: Battlesector – Tyranid Elites DLC – enhancing the strategic depth of the base game.
- Warhammer 40k: Inquisitor – Martyr and Warhammer 40k: Inquisitor – Prophecy – offering a rich narrative experience.

While the bundle’s title, Waaaghtober!, may raise a few eyebrows—especially since it only features two Ork-themed games—it does include the delightful Shootas, Blood & Teef. This hand-drawn platformer is a cacophony of action, with non-stop shooting and boisterous Ork voices competing with a heavy metal soundtrack, ensuring an exhilarating experience.
As with all Humble Bundles, a portion of the proceeds goes to a charitable cause. This time, funds will support Coral Guardian, a French NGO dedicated to the protection and restoration of coral reefs, which are vital to the survival of 25% of marine species. Gamers can feel good about their purchases, knowing they are contributing to a noble cause while enjoying their adventures in the Warhammer universe.
