Over the weekend, Relic teased the above image for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine with an accompanying tweet stating, "We have a big metal surprise coming to @SpaceMarine in January--Merry Christmas from Relic!"
Reports and message boards are stating that this could mean that the next downloadable add-on for Space Marine will feature the Dreadnought--"a cybernetic combat walker"--in some shape or form. The Warhammer 40K Wikia describes the walker's presence with the following: "When the greatest of their number fall in battle and they are experienced enough to be considered invaluable to their Chapter, then their body will be repaired and transferred into the armored cybernetic sarcophagus of a Dreadnought if there is even a spark of life left in them."
January is only a few days away, so hopefully we'll here something soon.
