In June 2020, Focus Rogue Factor announced that development for Necromunda: Underhive Wars was still ongoing, and that they were targeting a summer 2020 release. Following the release of a new trailer for the game, they advised that the long period of silence stemmed from a complete revision of the goals of what they wanted the game to achieve, as a great deal of early speculation drove potential players to think that Necromunda: Underhive Wars nothing more than a reskin of their earlier success with "Mordheim: City of the Damned". Additionally, Rogue Factor advised that gameplay would allow players to build a gang of up to 5 gangers (whereas the tabletop would allow players to have anywhere between 1-15, depending on the gang they were using), and featured a new campaign written by Games Workshop Alumni Andy Chambers. In mid June, Steam advised that they had begun taking preorders for Necromunda: Underhive Wars with a release date of 8 September 2020. Upon the game's release, players will be able to choose from the Goliath, Escher and Orlock gangs, and the five-character gang limitation per player has been confirmed.
