There’s already a lot more planned for GW releases than what you may realize. Come take a look at what’s coming our way for the rest of 2018 and beyond.
Games Workshop has already told us a lot of what’s coming throughout the rest of the year, including not only a big release already planned for next year but also for the following one as well.
So today, we’re going to be taking a look at what we know is on the way so far, and when we think we can expect to see it.
++ This is not an official release schedule, so make sure you add salt for the release timeframes that have not been confirmed yet.++

So looks like for whatever game system you play, there are a lot of releases coming your way, and at this point, it’s not a matter of what, but a matter of when.
Fans of Warhammer 40,000, Age of Sigmar, Shadespire, Necromunda, and Horus Heresy all have something to look forward to this year.
For now, some of these are tentative releases, so make sure you’re checking back in with us for the latest updates. Once we get the official announcements from Games Workshop we’ll be putting them out and updating this release timeline.
What do you think about the releases we know so far? Are you looking forward to anything in particular?
