Neocore announces "Sororitas" DLC for Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr

In conjunction with the next Inquisitorial Season, Hungary-based studio Neocore has announced upcoming downloadable content that will introduce a brand new playable class for Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr — the Adeptus Sororitas, better known as the Sisters of Battle.

Neocore has accompanied this welcome reveal with an overview of the DLC's lore-based inspirations as well as a taste of the Sororitas' combat capabilities:

Fans of the Warhammer 40,000 universe are surely familiar with the Adepta Sororitas. The Sisters of Battle are devout followers of the Emperor, and a bastion against corruption and heresy across the Imperium. They lay waste to the heretics with a wide array of weaponry ranging from Flamers to Blessed Blades and Neural Whips, however, their faith is said to be a weapon stronger than any steel. Through this zealous faith they invoke powers beyond measure to perform Saintly Deeds, silencing every last heretic's final cries.

The Sisters of Battle class will bring new mechanics and artifact types to Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor as well. 

Players will be able to access various Acts of Faith to empower their characters and allies or smite their enemies, as well as further customize their playstyle through the Sacred Rite passive skills. With strong enough Faith, the Sister of Battle will be able to transform into Embodied Saint form gain access to a wide array of unique abilities, feared across the entire Caligari Sector.

Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr, which is quite the name for a video game, is available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The "Sororitas" DLC launches at an undisclosed date in 2022, first on PC and later on consoles.
