There’s some crazy rumors flying out there about the new Blood Bowl game coming “early”. Come get the answers from Games Workshop themselves!
Games Workshop was talking Blood Bowl at GAMA last week. Here’s the scoop from the horse’s mouth!

These may be the mock-ups Andre was referring too.
Plus rumormonger Sad Panda chimed in recently on the matter as well:
Blood Bowl is the first game from the new specialist game studio at GW launched in January.
Quicker turn-around and more flexibility were among the reasons this new specialist game studio was created in the first place.
These guys only have been in their new job for 3 months now. It’ll be a while until they find their rhythm.
Whew doggie, never in the history of ever do we remember GW going on the record outside Nottingham folks. This is a brave new world for the hobby indeed. So it looks like the new Blood Bowl will be hitting in 2017, and the exact contents are still being developed.
Are we seeing a kinder, gentler Games Workshop now?
