Necromunda: Underhive Wars is the first video game adaptation of the Necromunda board game. The Underhive Wars takes place underneath the hive cities of Necromunda. Here, in the underground tunnels, gangs fight for the power of their homes. Gamers will have to clash in the battle for the wealth of the houses of Escher, Goliath or Orlok on 26 maps in story and multiplayer modes.

Among the locations in the game there are: an abandoned factory, a power plant, a chemical waste storage, a reservoir and other structures under the hive cities. Some arenas are designed for short-range combat, while others are replete with surrounding elements and allow for tactical abilities. Each house offers its own fighters: each has unique skills (they can be developed) and a predisposition to certain roles.
