New Faction Revealed at Warhammer Skulls Event for Warhammer Tacticus

Author:Kristen Update:May 28,2025

Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus, developed by Snowprint Studios, continues to be a standout title for Warhammer fans on mobile platforms. The game is set to expand its already impressive roster of factions with an exciting new addition, announced during the Warhammer Skulls showcase on May 22nd. This annual event is not only a hub for revealing new content but also features significant discounts on a variety of grimdark gaming experiences set in the far future and the Old World.

The anticipation is high as Tacticus currently boasts over a dozen factions, leaving fans to speculate about the nature of the upcoming addition. Will it be another faction from the Imperium or Chaos, or will the xenos finally get their due? While the exact reveal remains under wraps, the possibilities are tantalizing.

Personally, I'm inclined to believe that the Leagues of Votann, the recently introduced faction of deep space miners known for their hard-drinking and cloned warriors (who are decidedly not dwarves), could be a strong contender. Their inclusion in Tacticus would not only broaden the game's universe but also spotlight this intriguing faction to a wider audience. However, more conventional choices like the Grey Knights or the Inquisition seem equally plausible.
