Back in February, Creative Assembly announced the finale to its Warhammer series – Total War: Warhammer 3. The game was initially announced to be released in 2021, but the developers need some extra time, moving the game into an ‘early 2022' release window. “With nearly a decade of development on …

Back in 2015, Games Workshop found a hit on its hands with the launch of Warhammer: Vermintide. The left 4 Dead style co-op title ended up selling very well and even eventually spread to consoles. A sequel has been in the works for some time now, helmed by developer ‘Fatshark'. …

Wayne England, one of the most iconic tabletop gaming artists of the past few decades, has passed away. Known for his illustrations in Warhammer rule books, on the pages of White Dwarf magazine, Dungeons and Dragons manuals and Magic the Gathering cards, England helped define the artistic style of many …

With all of the news of developers like Epic, Motiga and Blizzard releasing new takes on the MOBA genre by combining it with FPS elements, perhaps it's time we had a new, traditional MOBA as well. Forget that Infinite Crisis closed down a few months ago, Games Workshop and Whitebox …

I have a bit of a soft spot for Goblins. They get a bad rap in most fantasy universes, but at least in the world of Warhammer they tend to be quite comical. Night Goblins however are a little different: they're crazy even by Goblin standards, but they do embody …

Although Games Workshop has suffered through a lot of criticism for various aspects of its business over the years, one of the more vocal complaints is that it never seemed to realise what it had. Along with not appreciating what video games could do for its various tabletop franchises, it …

Considering how effective the Left 4 Dead formula was, it's surprising that more developers haven't taken that idea and applied it to other settings. That's what Fatshark did with Warhammer: End Times – Vermintide however and it works pretty well; if the recent beta was anything to go by. Hopefully …

The first beta event for Fatshark's Warhammer: End Times – Vermintide was good fun. The cooperative shooter, smasher blends Left 4 Dead level design with an addictive loot mechanic in a medieval fantasy setting against humanoid rats (Skaven) and it looks pretty too. That selective beta is set to relaunch …

I'm not sure what happened in the past couple of years at Games Workshop, but whatever it was, it was big. The British tabletop developer went from having just a handful of video games based on its titles, to having more in-development than even we can keep track of. And …

Cyanide Games' BloodBowl II has been a long delayed game. Originally intended for release in Spring this year, it was nudged back by a few months and then a few more, with its current release date set for the 22nd September. To make sure we still say hungry for touchdowns and …

At this point in 2015, it feels like there's just about a Warhammer title for every aspect of its dual fantasy and far-flung-future universes. There's one for its medieval sports, one for its space armadas, one for epic sword-and sorcery wars across continents, and there's even a tweaked game of …

Although tabletop game maker Games Workshop has never been known as a company that was generous with its pricing, it only seems fair to give it some good will for teaming up with Humble Bundle to offer a number of its app-based experiences available for cheap. There's something for everyone too, …

Good old Games, or GoG (I had to see how many times I could fit ‘games' into the title) has seen fit to add to the growing pile of Warhammer titles set to be made available this year, by bringing some its classics to the platform. While there is a notable …

Although Games Workshop seems to have finally cottoned on to the fact that it's sitting on a goldmine of nostalgic and competitive gaming IPs, announcing more projects in the past six months than it has in the past decade, its flagship Warhammer 40k product of a few years ago, Dawn of …

Even though Games workshop has released a number of games based around its Warhamer and Warhammer 40,000 universes over the years, very few of them really captured the anarchic battles that can feature everything from trolls, to steampunk cannons, to demi-gods and demons. Fortunately then, early reports of the upcoming …

Despite the fact that Games Workshop still hasn't done what fans have been clamouring for for years – create a full digital version of its flagship tabletop franchises – it is pulling out all the stops this year, releasing new versions of Bloodbowl, Mordheim, Total War: Warhammer, Regicide and more. …

Games Workshop has a bit of a history of hiring on odd choices or relative unknowns to make its games, but it's gone a different route with the upcoming Skaven slaughter simulator, Warhammer End Times: Vermintide by having FatShark do it. Although that developer is hardly as well known as …

It seems Games Workshop has finally realised that it's sitting on a goldmine of an IP, as the last six months have seen more Warhammer games announced than the franchise has had released in its entire history. To continue that trend, another game based in the Warhammer: Fantasy universe  has …

You never really believed that even after its hit with Alien: Isolation, that Creative Assembly would stop making Total War games did you? Despite Rome II's somewhat lacklustre reception, another Total War game has been in the works for a couple of years already, but it steps into the world …

Games Workshop has always been a polarising company. On one hand, it has for many years been the best outlet for fantasy and Sci-Fi miniatures, pushing the quality envelope and maintaining some of the most popular tabletop miniature games out there. But on the other, it's repeatedly made moves that anger consumers …

Longtime Chairman and CEO at Warhammer maker Games Workshop, Tom Kirby, has announced in a recent chairman address, that he's stepping down from his roles, though he does plan to stay on in a non-executive chairman role if possible. The reasoning for the move isn't quite clear, though perhaps the …

If you've just finished watching the latest season of Game of Thrones season, then no doubt you're lamenting the near year wait we now have for season 5. While book readers will scoff at the meer mention of a single year wait for the next part of the series, consider …

Hey guys, you know how annoyingly weird Games Workshop usually is? You know how it seems to ignore fans, upping prices every year by crazy margins, turning its magazine into a product catalogue, punishing third party retailers and replacing its white metal models with a bubble filled, warped material? Well …

It's been quite a while since we had a chance to play a turn based game based on the Warhammer 40,000 universe but it won't be much longer. Today Games Workshop divulged more details about its upcoming title being developed by Slitherine for PC and iOS. For the Warhammer aficionados out …

Games Workshop, the company behind such hit tabletop experiences as Warhammer, Warhammer 40,000 and Blood Bowl, has continued its expansion into the digital realm, with a reimagining of the hit boardgame Talisman, set for a launch on iOS and Android devices on 25th April. Don't get too excited though, as …

Space Hulk is a PC and mobile title currently in development by Full Control ApS, that's based on the 1989 Warhammer 40,000 board game from Game Workshop with the same name. In a new gameplay demo, one of the developers discusses a lot of the game's features, including customisation. The …
