Warhammer Street Maps for 2024 are right here and the response to it has been… one thing.
So on the NOVA open reveals that occurred at 3am for us so we didn’t do a reveal submit we acquired a bunch of articles that seemed on the street maps for every Warhammer recreation system. That is nice, proper? We get to know what’s coming, when it would come and what to prepare for. Anticipate the response to it has been terrible. 40k particularly has acquired a variety of hate for Video games Workshop “taking a break”, confirming only one extra launch for 2024, and we have already acquired the primary a part of that exposed.
Anyway, let’s check out them.
Warhammer Street Maps for 2024
Warhammer 40k
So, that is in all probability probably the most controversial one of many lot, almost certainly simply because it is 40k. However, actual speak, it’s kind of “meh. Now, Video games Workshop has anticipated this with their assertion within the submit:
“With so much occurring in 2024, it is time to take a breath, watch the stability, and benefit from the World Championships of Warhammer”
Truthfully… we get it, we hold listening to from followers that we get too many new releases, however when GW decelerate, individuals complain. Possibly it is as a result of the one factor that’s popping out is one thing we have already seen, however actually, I believe that is honest. We’re about to be in September, we can’t get a lot if something in December anyway, so this lets GW concentrate on different stuff.
With AoS having simply had a brand new addition, we suspect all the main target can be on that recreation system…
Age of Sigmar
So, that is the place the panic begins to set in. Battletomes for Skaven and Stormcast are apparent, however we additionally get one in all Slaves of Darkness. That is cool, however that can also be 2024 completed with for AoS. We get a teaser of recent Spearhead packing containers in early 2025, however not a lot outdoors of those for Orruks and Gloomspite. Then we get a very imprecise teaser about “Loss of life”. Plus extra military packing containers and Spearhead. It is a bit on the imprecise aspect, and that is actually the difficulty right here.
Why not tease one thing new right here, “a brand new Loss of life faction is coming”, get individuals excited for 2025 with out freely giving an excessive amount of? We all know a variety of factions will get new stuff in 2025 as a result of we simply had a brand new version of the sport. What about Cities of Sigmar, it is top-of-the-line ranges in AoS, so why not tease “a brand new race joins the cities” increase! Mic drop, the followers go wild. I imply, I may be a bit bias as I accumulate Cities of Sigmar, however the level nonetheless stands.
Warhammer the Outdated World
So, nothing actually new is coming for Outdated World in 2024 that we weren’t conscious of. We do know that the Empire and Elves are subsequent, then extra factions after that. The half about Plastic, Metallic, Resin appears a bizarre factor to concentrate on, actually, as we all know that is how Outdated World works now.
Horus Heresy Street Map
Once more, like Outdated World, the “smaller” video games appear to have gotten the worst deal right here. Horus Heresy is probably going going to get one thing new every month, and 2025 can have… Tanks. So, that is good.
