FAQ

How many weapons does the official store advertise?
The official Steam store advertises an arsenal of 75+ weapons. Its named examples are not a complete, independently checked armory, so this page does not turn that marketing total into a full item list.
Which Warhammer Survivors weapons are officially named?
Steam names Boltgun, Astartes Chainsword, Whirlwind Axes, and Nuln Oil. Auroch also names Power Fists, Gauntlets of Ultramar, Whirlwind Battery, Orbital Bombardment, and D6 Dice in its announcement.
Which weapon evolutions are officially announced?
Auroch says Power Fists evolve into Gauntlets of Ultramar and that Orbital Bombardment is an evolution of Whirlwind Battery. The announcement does not publish the ingredients, level, trigger, cost, or release-build balance.
What does Nuln Oil do?
An official Status Effects feature focus identifies Nuln Oil as the weapon that causes Oiled. Oiled increases the damage caused by weapons that inflict fire damage. Its base slot, values, unlock, recipe, and upgrade behavior still need a build-specific check.
Does this page rank the best weapons or list every recipe?
No. Before the November 10, 2026 full release, this page records source-backed names and relationships only. It does not claim a complete recipe list, unlock tracker, damage table, tier ranking, or universal build recommendation.

What is confirmed about the weapon armory?

The official Steam store metadata advertises an arsenal of 75+ weapons. It names Boltgun, Astartes Chainsword, and Whirlwind Axes as examples, then calls Nuln Oil an easter egg. That is useful evidence for the published names and the advertised scope, but it is not a complete armory index or a release-build inspection.

Checked on October 9, 2026 (Asia/Shanghai), this page keeps Demo observations and store copy separate from the November 10, 2026 release announcement. The August 5 official Status Effects feature focus confirms that Nuln Oil applies Oiled, increasing damage from weapons that inflict fire damage. This is a pre-release feature demonstration, not a complete stat sheet.

Source-backed weapons and named entries

The table does not treat every named item as a confirmed base weapon. Example means a source example or easter egg; evolution source and evolved are Auroch relationship labels. Base slot, unlock, and balance remain open unless stated.

Name Type label Source Known now Still to verify
Boltgun Example; base unconfirmed Steam metadata Named in the 75+ arsenal In-game role, stats, unlock, evolution
Astartes Chainsword Example; base unconfirmed Steam metadata Named in the 75+ arsenal In-game role, stats, unlock, evolution
Whirlwind Axes Example; base unconfirmed Steam metadata Named in the 75+ arsenal In-game role, stats, unlock, evolution
Nuln Oil Named weapon; base unconfirmed Steam metadata; Status Effects focus Steam calls it a humble pot/easter egg; Oiled increases damage from fire-damage weapons Base slot, values, unlock, recipe, and upgrade path
Power Fists Evolution source Auroch announcement Said to evolve into Gauntlets of Ultramar Required passive, level, trigger, cost, and release-build behavior
Gauntlets of Ultramar Evolved Auroch announcement Named as the result of Power Fists; Calgar joins that attack Recipe details, unlock, stats, and whether the relationship changed
Whirlwind Battery Evolution source Auroch announcement Said to evolve into Orbital Bombardment Required passive, level, trigger, cost, and release-build behavior
Orbital Bombardment Evolved Auroch announcement Named as an evolution of Whirlwind Battery Recipe details, unlock, stats, and release-build behavior
D6 Dice Named weapon; base unconfirmed Auroch announcement Described as usable by both universes Role, stats, unlock, evolution, and platform/build scope
Frag Grenade Confirmed base weapon Feature Focus: Pick-ups Official post calls it a grenade pick-up and The Legend of Catachan’s base weapon Damage, cooldown, unlock, evolution, and full release behavior

The table is intentionally shorter than the advertised total. Add entries only when a current source identifies the exact name and context. The official Frag Grenade entry is tied to the Legend of Catachan in the Feature Focus: Pick-ups post; it does not make every grenade pick-up a base weapon. Demo discussion names are not automatic spelling corrections.

Original Warhammer Survivors evolution diagram links Power Fists to Gauntlets of Ultramar and Whirlwind Battery to Orbital Bombardment without recipe requirements.

What is known about weapons and evolutions?

The Auroch announcement says that evolving Power Fists brings Marneus Calgar as a companion, with Calgar wielding the Gauntlets of Ultramar. It also says Orbital Bombardment is an evolution of Whirlwind Battery. Those statements confirm named relationships, not a full recipe system. They do not establish which passive, level, chest, timing, cost, or character requirement is needed.

The evolution chart keeps historical Steam Demo ingredient leads separate; they have zero independent checks and conflicting names. The Demo guide explains why a May observation cannot become an October or release rule. The status effects guide explains wider interactions; this page records only the official Nuln Oil relationship. No best tier, damage comparison, or guaranteed build path is claimed before release-build records exist.

How should this armory page grow?

After release, each new row should carry the exact in-game name, build and platform, observation date, source or repeatable test, and a clear status. Add recipes only when the ingredients and trigger are observed more than once. Add rankings only after comparable runs explain the setup, trade-offs, and patch context. The characters roster can then connect weapon relationships to named heroes without turning a companion mention into a character tier.

For the wider source map, use the wiki hub. It links this page to the roster, evolution, Demo, and release guides while preserving the difference between announced content, historical Demo leads, and observed release data.
