Nova Smith is a freelance writer based out of Alberta, Canada. Nova's grab bag of non-gaming interests and passions includes Japanese mecha anime, miniature painting, as well as history, literature, and classical music. Nova also moonlights as a bureaucrat and amateur historian.

gothic industrial environments are dripping in the same grimdark atmosphere from the base game, but more focused, honed—the descent into the heart of Graia's beating daemonic forge-heart is easily the apex of Boltgun's crunchy pixel presentation. The Dark Mechanicum is some of the coolest stuff in the Warhammer universe, and while Forges of Corruption doesn't reach the stomach-churning heights of thefrom the old Horus Heresy books, it's still a fantastic take on the subject.

It's good that these are the highlights of Boltgun's already stellar arsenal, because you'll be heavily leaning on their overwhelming firepower. Forges of Corruption pulls no punches. It's noticeably more difficult than the base campaign, owing in large part to some thoughtful and flavourful additions to the enemy roster.

I was struck by how much the levels reminded me of really great Warhammer 40,000 tabletop boards, with Necromunda-esque verticality and density. One highlight early on is a level themed around scaling patchwork scaffolding erected around the arm of a Warlord titan, where you have to activate its god-killing weaponry to punch a hole through the factory's bulwark.

Otherwise Forges of Corruption is short, tight, and heavy, a fantastic addendum to an already excellent FPS. Auroch has meaningfully iterated on what was already one of the, and I hope that it makes more expansions for Boltgun.
