We knew changes were coming to White Dwarf magazine but looks like things are happening a lot sooner that we expected, as there is only 4 issues left!

This letter was sent out to all subscription holders recently of the new weekly White Dwarf, and a copy was provided to us via an anonymous source:

A good news, bad news, good news sandwich?

The end is coming in just FOUR more weekly issues, with a ‘gap’ in coverage in August! My spikey sense (yes spelled right) has me thinking something BIG release wise will be coming in September as well.

More on the new White Dwarf:
