Warlord Games relaunches Konflikt ’47 with expanded lore, cinematic gameplay, and armies packed with mechs, monsters, and mutated heroes.
Wargamers, break out your walking tanks and radioactive rifles—Konflikt ’47 is back and looking better than ever. Warlord Games is officially relaunching this fan-favorite weird war miniatures game in late 2025, and it’s more than just a glow-up.
With revamped rules, new miniatures, and a setting that leans hard into Rift-fueled sci-fi horror, this update gives both Bolt Action veterans and new players plenty to get excited about.
What Is Konflikt ’47?
At its core, Konflikt ’47 is a bold take on alternate-history wargaming. It builds off the foundation of Bolt Action but drops it into a world gone mad with alien tech, mutated horrors, and mechanized nightmares. The premise? WWII was already rough—then someone cracked open a dimensional rift, and now there are energy-powered monstrosities on the battlefield.
This relaunch keeps that core energy but tightens the screws on gameplay and storytelling alike. The setting has been refined, the rules are getting tuned, and the range of models is expanding in a big way.
The Weird War Gets Wilder
One of the standout additions in the new Konflikt ’47 is how it handles Rift Tech. These aren’t just flashy add-ons. They’re central to gameplay, with new mechanics that push this game beyond a simple WWII mod.
Each Rift unit adds Rift Dice to your pool—dice that can come up Active, Exhausted, or Surging. The dice state affects your units in wild ways. A Surging die might unlock devastating powers, while an Exhausted one might make your mech slightly more sluggish. This mechanic promises a more cinematic, unpredictable game, perfect for the theme.
Heroes, Horrors, and Faction Flavor
Each faction is getting the attention it deserves. Expect five full army lists at launch: the Axis, United States, British Commonwealth, Soviet Bloc, and Empire of Japan. Every faction brings its own flavor of madness, with heroes that bend rules and monsters that rewrite them.
These aren’t just renamed officers with fancy hats. Heroes in Konflikt ’47 might be psychically attuned to Rift energy, tank commanders too stubborn to die, or soldiers chemically altered into walking nightmares. They’ll get their own stats, their own rules, and yes, their own miniatures.
Existing Konflict ’47 Miniatures and Compatibility
Speaking of miniatures—yes, there will be plenty of new plastic infantry and vehicles. Some classic models are getting upgraded to Warlord Resin, and every existing Konflikt ’47 unit will be supported in the new edition. If you’ve already invested in the range, you won’t have to shelf your old army. That said, don’t be surprised if the new units outshine your grizzled vets in raw effectiveness.
The Road to the Relaunch
The game is set to return in Q4 2025. More previews, model reveals, and rule teases are coming over the next few months. If weird war wargaming is your thing—or you’ve just been waiting for an excuse to field a mech with a Tesla cannon—this is your moment.
The weird war never ended. It just recharged.
