If you want those sweet new minis, you won’t have too long to wait as the 40k Kill Team: Pariah Nexus release date has been confirmed!
Today on Warhammer Community they revealed the release date for the new box at the very end of the post. They will be hitting pre-order on Feb 27th with a release date of March 6th.
This, like usual is good news for the Space Marines but could be very bad news for Drukhari. As it could push back the release of the Xenos another 2 weeks. We’re not saying they won’t be released alongside each other, but we’ve seen pricing for the Kill Team stuff and not the Dark Eldar stuff.
Again, not saying it’s impossible, but this makes it less likely. If you’ve been patiently waiting through the Dark Angels release, you may have a little longer to wait… anyways, let’s get into the good news!
Kill Team: Pariah Nexus Release Date Confirmed
With how much hype we’ve seen built around this box having the new minis in it, you better hop on the pre-order quickly! Not sure how many will be going out to stores, but if their most recent releases are anything to go on, we’re guessing not very many. The pre-order will go live on the 27th and they will be going live on March 6th.
While there were no other rules in the post, they snuck the release date down here at the end. Again, this doesn’t bode well for the Drukhari as we haven’t seen much pricing and only a single new rule release for them. It almost felt like GW was going to release them simultaneously and then decided against it. But, this is one we really hope we’re wrong on! Let’s take a look at the value you can grab in the new box:
40k Kill Team Pariah Nexus Box Value $160
From our rumors post earlier today, it looks like we have the pricing for this new set along with four other new Kill Team releases as well.
Just to note first, we haven’t seen a big box revealed for Kill Team since 2019, so expected a little price increase for the box, we were just hoping it wasn’t too much. You get 12 minis, the Pariah Nexus book, objective cards, a decent amount of terrain, and the game board.
Really, the biggest value comes in the minis that aren’t released to regular circulation yet. That means the value is a little intangible with a side of early birdness as well.
- Necron Chronomancer $35 (based on other characters)
- 5 Flayed Ones $38 (Based on other secondary units like Immortals)
- Space Marine Captain $35
- 5 Heavy Intercessors $45
- All Accessories $90 (based on the Kill Team: Arena Box which had almost identical contents minus minis )
Total: $243
Value: $83
The value is pretty decent, but if you just want the minis, well, even splitting it is basically paying $75 for about $70-80 (depending on what side you get) worth of minis.
So you won’t really save much, but you will get some minis before anyone who waits. So the value really comes in 2 places. If you want to get into Kill Team in general, and if you can’t wait for the minis inside to be released in their own sets.
Are you excited about the new box? Will you be trying to pick it up?
