Games Workshop is selling their licencing to anyone who will pony up the cash. Roadhouse Interactive will now be able to make tablet and smartphone games.

We are incredibly excited to bring a part of Warhammer 40,000 to life on mobile and tablet and it’s great to work with Games Workshop. The legions of fans of Space Marines will now be able to fight the Ork menace while on the move!” said Tarrnie Williams co-founder and President of Roadhouse Interactive.

What has Roadhouse Interactive made in the past? MechWarrior Tactics. Now I havn’t played it, but I have to say it looks pretty fun. I loved Mech Warrior growing up, and I can’t argue with a free-to-play turn based Mech game. Little known fact- Mech Warrior started as a table-board game. Paaazzaa

Before you get too excited, the game to come out will not be a turn based game. Instead just a single Marine, blasting Orcs to oblivion.
