THQ CEO Brian Farrell has revealed to Kotaku that the Warhammer 40K MMO will indeed be making its debut at this year's E3 in Los Angeles later next month. To be more specific, Brian used the words "fully unveil," so as they say in the fighting game world -- get hyped!

The 40K MMO is being developed by Darksiders developer Vigil Games, which is owned by THQ.

Sorry, just had to.. Love the Space marines. ;) 

However, I admit I am a bit reluctant to cheer just yet... I am holding my breath.. Hoping for the best and holding on tightly. I hope it'll fly, but it might as well crash and burn.

I think they can I think they can I think they can please please please don't screw this up

It really comes down to what it's gonna try to be: a REAL MMO (with worlds to explore, crafting of some kind, massive simultaneous number of people, etc) or is it gonna take the route of GW1 and similar games (instances, streamlined experience geared more towards instant action, etc).

So far the few notes about what was in the game so far looks great but i agree i'll leave the hype alone til E3 and see how 40K fleshes out.

For the Emperor! Oh god i can't wait for this.

I hope Imperial guard make the cut for one of the races.

Although Im guessing Orks, Space Marines , etc dawn of wars usual crowd will make releas.

Is E3 in july or June? 

I want to play an Eldar Howling Banshee myself. :P

To put in another quote from wh40k universe...

"Hope is the first step to disappointement" so yeah.. ill wait and see what they did with it. ITs quite a tough universe to converse into your standard user friendly MMO setting due to rather large scale and balance between imperial guardsman and space marine. The only becon of hope is the fact that THQ managed to not destroy the franchise in case of Relic's Dawn of War series.

Haha that's what Jonah says in DOW2. I always found that to be amusing.

MikeB a 40k guru? Pleasantly surprised!

Now that bias is revealed, I expect nothing more than headlines every time the smallest bit of 40k info is sneezed from PR!

/drool

Oh please, don't screw this up...

He'd have to do that anyway, this game is big news!

Finally another developer not trying to cater to the masses. There might be some hope after all.

Cool, gonna keep an eye out on this game. Lets hope it has a seamless world without instances, alot of world pvp :)

hmm, i read a article stating the exact opposite of what says in the one you linked SaintViktor, said the game needed atleast 1 million subs to profit, that was awhile ago though.. im not 100% sure it was about WAR 40K but pretty sure.. couldnt find the article.. But this is good news, the less players the better imo :) if there is atleast 1 populated server im happy. dont need 1 million or 10 to enjoy the game, 1 full server is enough..

considering it's whole freaking galaxy, i doubt they'll get away without zones. hopefully, something like EVE's world architecture: one universe (maybe just a smaller region at first), each stellar system a zone. possibly many predesigned places, but lots of procedural locations, to have random mission or skirmish about. lets live to see.

Well the first time this quote is used dates way back to DoW vanilla, where it was the favorite quote of Librarian (then turned Traitor) Isador Akios.

Well, this is one awesome news to read on one's birthday!

I'm starting the fapping untile the THQ press conference comes, FER TEH EPRAH!

I don't care for anything else as long as they have three sides in game. please...please..please..not another Warhhamer online mistake place.
