Slitherine Next Reveals the Future of Strategy Gaming: Warhammer Blood Bowl, Veil of Ashes, Memoir ‘44 and more
Slitherine unveils a host of new game announcements, reveals and updates during its latest Slitherine Next showcase, including the future of Warhammer Blood Bowl, the reveal of Memoir '44, the acquisition of Veil of Ashes and much more.
Since July 1st, Blood Bowl has entered a new exciting chapter as it found a new home at Slitherine.
During the live event, fans were treated to the launch of a brand-new Season and Blood Pass and the confirmation from Mathieu Valero, Blood Bowl Lead Engineer at Cyanide that a great deal of work is in full swing on the next title in the franchise, Warhammer Blood Bowl.
Scheduled to release before the end of 2026, the game will feature all the updated rules from the tabletop edition released in September 2025. Players can look forward to the return of the classic teams, including Old World Alliance, Orcs, Elven Union, and Skaven, alongside the long-awaited addition of the Bretonnians and Tomb Kings.
The surprises do not end there: Warhammer Blood Bowl will also introduce Rumble Mode, the fast-paced seven-a-side game mode and one of the features most requested by players over the years. The mode will be free to try in a Demo available for every player at the end of the summer.
Great news for the owners of Blood Bowl 3 have been confirmed: they’ll receive Warhammer Blood Bowl free of charge, and all previously owned content will carry over to their accounts. To accommodate these changes in the game, the World Championship this year will start in December.
