We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 30: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

NGL got kinda bored when enemies became some of the biggest bullet sponges ive ever seen but still a cool game wait for a sale i'd rather play OG doom or dusk idk
FOR THE EMPEROR! PURGE THE UNCLEAN!
Only played the first and 2nd half of the first 2 maps and WOW this game is awesome, its DOOM and Warhammer 40k rolled into one together, there may not be people that like boomer shooters but with the modernization of DOOM and turning it into Warhammer is really awesome, it's classic and works really well with WH40K. My first thoughts on the game were that some SFX were a little bit loud but it was fixed easily by changing some settings, It's definitely not WH40K Space Marine 2 or Darktide but it honestly fills a spot for the 40K games.
I am not a Warhammer 40K fan so I do not know anything about the lore. I got Boltgun just for the boomer shooter aspect only and I can state with confidence Boltgun is a plainly awful first person shooter. Uninteresting maps to fight through, those levels are linear unremarkable and lame. They don't foster any feeling of exploration. Finding secrets is not rewarding as most of them really are not hidden they're just lying around in plain sight which is lazy. Weapons are all kind of dumb to be honest and none of them feel particularly solid. They get the job done and that is about it. No matter what difficulty setting you choose the combat is too easy. Background music is so corny I shut that off completely in the first twenty seconds of launching this mess. Probably one of the worst aspects of this gaming dumpster fire and a huge distraction is the floating Captain Obvious that follows you around everywhere. I sure wish there was an option to shut that damn thing down. Bottom line Boltgun is another genuine gaming loser.
Never played any Warhammer game so I can`t say anything for the lore. But I'm absolutely in love with the pixel art graphics. And the fight dynamic is super fun, both the melee and the guns. It could be a solid 9/10 COULD... On the down side, the level design is quite repetitive, you can divide 90% of them in 2: * Exploration: linear map without much to explore switching between almost no enemies to an unexplicable amount of enemies. with some eventual (very frequent) find-the-key; * Horde: Circular map with enemies raining on you, an eventual boss fight at the same time as well. And some other novelty maps (like the Warp labyrinth) Overall, still a very fun game. Just don't play too much at once. On an unrelated note, but a COOP option on Horde Mode would be just awesome. It could even be LAN
ive only played for the first 2 levels but this game is something else, super fun. iron within iron without!
Fun FPS with retro feel. Solid Warhammer 40K game!
