The grim darkness of the far future is going to shine a little brighter this month, as 's latest crossover DLC will hit on February 27, taking you to the world of Warhammer 40,000. A trailer released today takes a good long look at the job of a holy tech priest of Mars seeking to cleanse the sacred war gear of the machine god. (That is to say, power wash it.)
I am on record as thinking this crossover is an incredible idea—, I said—and I am still really into it as we near a release and get this new trailer. "Our tool, the Mark 2 Aquasantica
Arquabus" is where I lost it in the trailer, as the narrator grumbles along in absolute dedication to the faux-Latin that pervades Warhammer 40,000.
"Just because Warhammer 40,000 is grimdark, it doesn't [[link]] have to be dirty! Get ready for the crossover of the year as PowerWash Simulator heads into the 41st Millennium," said Warhammer 40k publishers Games Workshop in their own .
"On the 27th of February, you can take your well-drilled Adeptus Mechanicus maintenance skills to an assortment of muddied Imperial relics, from the tracks of a Rogal Dorn battle tank to the lofty carapace of a towering Imperial Knight. Everything from the vehicles to the environment is recreated in exacting detail, including a full Sacristan Forgeshrine and even the surface of Mars itself outside an ornate stained glass window," they continue . You can accuse [[link]] Games Workshop of a lot of things but you definitely can't fault its commitment to the lore in this most weirdo of licensed crossovers.
PowerWash Simulator might feel like a ridiculous gimmick, and it kind of is, but also people unironically love it for the calming effect that making the world a nicer, cleaner place can have, even if just digitally.
"PowerWash Simulator lets me obliterate dirt into nothing and now I'm more powerful than ever," said PC Gamer's Rachel Watts , succinctly and precisely explaining its appeal for all time.
