Nexon Cancels Warhammer Age of Sigmar RPG in Development by Thought Pennies
The multiplayer action-RPG, based on Games Workshop's fantasy franchise, was shelved due to Nexon's strategic shift.
- The canceled game was a collaboration between Nexon and Thought Pennies, announced in 2021, and based on the Warhammer Age of Sigmar setting.
- The project was envisioned as a multiplayer action-RPG with live-service elements for PC, consoles, and mobile platforms.
- Thought Pennies confirmed the cancellation, citing Nexon's decision to pursue a new strategic direction in late 2024.
- Age of Sigmar, a fantasy counterpart to the popular Warhammer 40,000 franchise, has historically had fewer video game adaptations and a smaller fanbase.
- Other recent Warhammer titles, particularly those based on the 40K universe, have seen significant commercial success, including Space Marine II and Rogue Trader.
