Dedicated Modders Need to Answer 1 Gears of War Players Question Once Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 Launches

Two third-person franchises have been confirmed to get new installments. Gears of War E-Day and Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 can potentially take their respective series to the next level.

Despite not having anything in common apart from their setting and genre, fans of the former have a fantastic idea for modders who will tweak the latter. If the idea is executed, it could make for an irresistible, exciting experience.

Anyone familiar with the two video game series mentioned above will agree that both have an incredibly prosperous world. There is a lot of depth to each series’ characters and settings.

Both video game series enjoy a cult following and are as relevant as ever, even in 2024. Hence, witnessing a crossover or a semi-crossover between the two IPs would be breathtaking for the fandom.

Recently, a fan let their creativity loose as they proposed a scenario involving the monsters from Gears of War going against the most elite military unit in Warhammer 40k:

The post’s title is enough for fans of either series to get goosebumps and feel the adrenaline coursing through their veins. Undoubtedly, the scenario would make for an incredibly epic battle.

Despite the probability of gamers witnessing the sheer spectacle that would unfold if such a battle were ever to happen. Gamers can only depend on one particular set of individuals with a very particular set of skills to come forward and make the impossible happen: modders.

Modding Has Been Possible in Previous Warhammer 40K Games

The modding scene in video games is one of the most fascinating things to experience. It can change how the game looks, feels, and plays if the community is strong enough and the game supports modding.

Thanks to modding, Star Wars fans make Starfield into a game based on the LucasFilm IP. On the Warhammer 40K side of things, mods have been possible for Space Marine, and if the same holds for the upcoming sequel for the subseries, then fans might get to experience the battle between a Deathwatch Kill Team and an army of locusts.

Not to mention, other fantasy battles would also be possible. The only thing limiting the experience would be the modder’s imagination, which, as we have seen, never fails to amaze gamers.

If modding is possible for the upcoming Warhammer game, which battle scenarios would you like modders to develop? Also, what is your take on a battle involving Deathwatch and Locusts? Who would win? We would love to know your thoughts in the comments section.
