Zero bolt, lots of gun.
Warhammer 40,000 BoltGun is a satisfying boomer shooter that delivers a repetitive but enjoyable power fantasy. BoltGun is best played a few levels at a time as to not burn out on its mow them down gameplay loop.
Firstly, I must say I have very limited knowledge and experience in the Warhammer universe but quiet a large history in the FPS and Boomer Shooter genre. That said I quiet enjoy my BoltGun playthrough as it delivers a fast passed, kill everything, super soldier experience. Theres something particularly satisfying about the loud footsteps stomping around as you chainsaw your way through demons and monsters mercilessly. The weapon feel was nice but I wasn’t a huge fan of the limited variety and the lack of any new weapon types. Unfortunately, you will quickly realise that your arsenal is nothing new and is quiet generic in the Boomer Shooter market.
The level design and variety was quite nice and you get to explore some unique locations that I quiet enjoyed. However, there were a handful of occasions that I found myself turned around and walking back the way I came due to the graphical style or lack of directional prompt. Occasionally BoltGun expects you do to some very mediocre platforming when the level design seems to hit its lowest but thankfully this is not very regular.
In summary if your looking for more Boomer in your Shooter and needs more games to fill the void, then I definitely recommend giving 40k BoltGun a go especially for the low price of Game Pass.
