There is a new video game crossover that fans did not expect. PowerWash Simulator has teamed up with Warhammer for new in-game items and missions. This odd combo shows anything is possible in gaming today!
PowerWash Simulator was already a hit relaxing game about cleaning dirty objects. Warhammer is a popular tabletop game series about battles in a fantasy world. Putting them together sounds silly but works in very fun ways!
This article looks at what the strange PowerWash meets Warhammer crossover adds to PowerWash Simulator. It also talks about why people think the weird mashup works well.
What is PowerWash Simulator?
First let’s talk about PowerWash Simulator by itself before the Warhammer stuff.
PowerWash Simulator is a chill “casual” game about cleaning very dirty objects using a power washer that shoots out high-pressure water. Dirt, mold and grime get blasted off smoothly as players move the washer.
Some stuff you slowly clean include old walls, dirty driveways, grubby cars and mossy fences. It looks very satisfying seeing coated objects become shiny and new after blasting layers of crud off.
The simple goal is fully cleaning everything spotless completing jobs or improving your power washer by unlocking better soap, water temperature, new nozzles, etc.
It is very relaxing and joyful making progress removing gross dirt revealing nice clean colors underneath using strong water jets.
What is Warhammer?
Now onto Warhammer. It is a popular tabletop miniatures wargame owned by Games Workshop. Warhammer first released in 1983.
It lets players build fantasy model soldier armies like Space Marines then battle on terrain boards against other players’ forces. You customize your army, roll dice during combat and move stuff around by hand.
Games Workshop makes rules plus new mini soldier models for Warhammer fans to buy and play fantasy fights with friends. It is a huge popular hobby around the world for decades.
So Warhammer is battles and combat while PowerWash Simulator is peacefully cleaning stuff solo. They sound totally different!
PowerWash Simulator Meets Warhammer 40k
In November 2022, PowerWash Simulator publisher FuturLab announced a surprise crossover DLC with Warhammer 40k which is the sci-fi version of miniatures game Warhammer.
The DLC adds special Warhammer 40k models to clean in the game like tanks and dropships covered in thick battle damage and dirt.
There are also themed levels at new places like the Warhammer 40k Imperial Palace which is very shiny and golden but filthy. It feels fun blasting grime off famous fantasy world stuff.
So now between washing regular dirty driveways, you also scrub futuristic battleships from the Warhammer games back to shiny newness which is silly but very awesome!
Most players think it is a very strange mix adding Space Marine ships and fantasy battle stuff to casual everyday cleaning game PowerWash Simulator. But it works surprisingly well!
