New Warhammer Tacticus Faction Unveiled at Skulls Event

Author:Kristen Update:May 25,2025

Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus, developed by Snowprint Studios, continues to be the go-to mobile experience for Warhammer enthusiasts. With its extensive roster of factions, Tacticus is set to expand even further with a brand new addition, to be revealed at the upcoming Warhammer Skulls showcase on May 22nd. This annual event not only promises exciting reveals but also offers substantial discounts across a range of grimdark gaming experiences spanning the far future and the Old World.

While Tacticus already boasts over a dozen factions, the identity of the newest addition remains a mystery. Speculation abounds—will it be another Imperium or Chaos spin-off, or perhaps a much-needed spotlight on a xenos faction? My personal theory leans towards the recently introduced Leagues of Votann. Known for their deep space mining, hard-drinking, and cloned warriors that resemble dwarves, their inclusion in Tacticus could significantly boost their recognition within the 40k universe.

Of course, the reveal might lean towards more familiar factions like the Grey Knights or the Inquisition. To find out, be sure to tune into the Warhammer Skulls showcase at 9am PST, 12pm EST, 5pm BST, and 6pm CEST on Twitch!
