New Faction Debuts in Warhammer Tacticus at Skulls Event

by Eric Oct 03,2025

- Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus joins the upcoming Warhammer Skulls showcase

- The event will reveal the newest faction coming to Tacticus

- Will we see more Imperium forces? Chaos reinforcements? Or perhaps some Xenos representation?

Love it or hate it, Snowprint Studios' Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus stands as the premier mobile Warhammer experience. Even critics can't deny its impressive roster of factions - a lineup that's about to grow even larger with an exciting new addition!

The big question remains: What's coming next? The answer will be unveiled on May 22nd during the annual Warhammer Skulls gaming showcase, which will also feature significant discounts across grimdark titles set in both the far future and the Old World.

With Tacticus already featuring over a dozen factions, the possibilities might seem limited. Another Imperium or Chaos sub-faction seems plausible, but several Xenos factions deserve attention - and I've got a theory about which might appear next.

Rock and stone

If I were to speculate, I'd wager the recently introduced Leagues of Votann make a strong contender. These deep-space mining, ale-drinking, cloned (but totally-not-dwarves) represent one of Warhammer 40k's more surprising recent additions.

Their inclusion would significantly boost awareness of this unique faction. Though realistically, we might just see Grey Knights or Inquisition forces instead. Don't miss the reveal during the Warhammer Skulls showcase on Twitch at *9am PST/12pm EST/5pm BST/6pm CEST*!

While waiting, if Tacticus doesn't fully satisfy your strategic cravings, why not explore other excellent options? Check out our ranked list of the 25 best strategy games for iOS and Android - perfect for aspiring commanders and tacticians!
