May 2017 White Dwarf REVEALED!

White Dwarf Turns 40Did May’s White Dwarf just drop clues to 8th Edition’s release? The new White Dwarf is starting to make it into the hands of a lucky few, come check it out.

The Dark Artisan received his copy in the mail much earlier than most, and he was kind enough to record a video showing every page in the new issue. But one thing that caught our eye was that next month’s issue wouldn’t be on sale until June 16th... T

take a look at the video below as well as some pictures from May’s White Dwarf issue.

With a release date of June 16th next month does this mean that 8th edition will be released the first two weeks in June like the rumormongers keep saying? This is definitely raising some flags on why the magazine itself will not be released at the beginning of the month like normal. They didn’t mention anything about the release of 8th in May’s White Dwarf which may be disappointing to some, but they’re still giving us plenty of clues for us to try to figure it out judging by this teaser image:

We still have the key dates for May and June:

  • May 6th & 20th. White Dwarf 40th Anniversary & ???
  • June 3rd, 10th, & 17th. With 3 key dates in June this may just be the release of 8th Edition. What fresh hell awaits us?

June 3rd, 10th, & 17th are 3 Saturdays in a row that provide a lot of room for them to play with and the release of 8th. What are your thoughts about the later release of June’s White Dwarf? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
