In the campaign, players will need to stop a mysterious and deadly plague that is quickly spreading across a vast sector of the Imperium.

To combat the growing threat players, will take control of a squad of Grey Knights and command them through countless battles spanning several game maps.

In these battles, players can use the many skills of the Grey Knights to seize the day through brutal combat. However, combat is not the only thing players will need to worry about, as there is also a management and RPG side of things.

In short, players can level and gain new abilities and also customize their Grey Knights. Customization also includes both abilities, appearance, and war gear and equipment.
