New Faction Unveiled at Warhammer Skulls Event

by Aaron May 25,2025

Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus, developed by Snowprint Studios, continues to be the go-to mobile experience for Warhammer enthusiasts. With its expansive roster of factions, the game is set to grow even larger with the introduction of a new faction at the upcoming Warhammer Skulls showcase. This event, scheduled for May 22nd, promises to unveil not only the latest addition to Tacticus but also exciting discounts on a variety of grimdark gaming titles set in the far future and the Old World.

The identity of the new faction remains a mystery, sparking speculation among fans. With Tacticus already boasting over a dozen factions, the possibilities seem endless. Will we see another Imperium or Chaos faction, or perhaps a new xenos force to shake things up? My personal theory leans towards the recently introduced Leagues of Votann. These deep space miners, known for their hard-drinking and cloned, definitely-not-dwarves, could bring a fresh dynamic to the game. Their inclusion would not only diversify the roster but also increase awareness of this intriguing faction within the 40k universe.

Of course, the reveal could go in a more traditional direction with factions like the Grey Knights or the Inquisition. To find out for sure, be sure to tune into the Warhammer Skulls showcase on Twitch at *9am PST, 12pm EST, 5pm BST, and 6pm CEST*.
