We Got This CoveredGareth CartwrightSep 20154.5/5 starsThe latest in a long line of Warhammer 40,000 games brings a great new strategy and a gorgeous appearance to its chess-based battles. It is an immensely satisfying experience.

GameCrateChristopher AtwoodNov 20158/10Ultimately Warhammer 40,000: Regicide is all about the gameplay. It's fun and well optimized to run on even lower end PCs, and as a result it represents an awesome time killer. It's worthwhile to boot up whenever you're idly hanging out with friends, in between classes, or when you're just interested in challenging yourself mentally.

GameplanetChris BrownSep 20158/10Warhammer 40,000: Regicide is what every kid who played Battle Chess back in the day wished it could have been. It enthralls, but a lack of content and variety may see the majority of players move on far sooner than the game deserves.

Paste MagazineIan WilliamsSep 20156/10The animations and "feel" of the game is right. The actual mechanics seem a little swingy to me and the AI, while it certainly doesn't cheat, is a little too unforgiving. Can that be tweaked? Absolutely, and I hope it is. While I find the game fairly average, the attempt is novel and worthy of praise, something that I hope Hammerfall can capitalize on.

GamingTrendBrian WettengelOct 201565/100Regicide is chess. You are buying a computer chess game. Yes the graphics are tasty and the fight scenes are well done and the atmospherics are exemplary. But it's Combat Chess with a twist, and not even a big twist.
