While details are slim, Games Workshop has announced a new edition of Warhammer Quest, “Darkwater.” The new edition is set within the Mortal Realms of Warhammer: Age of Sigmar.
Evil lurks in the dark, there’s something in the water, and the whole of Ghyran is under threat.
It’s probably time to gather together a band of heroes, renegades, and misfits, and go on a Quest…
What perils await our group of intrepid adventurers within the ruins of the Jade Abbey? We’ll find out when more details are released in the coming weeks!
The original Warhammer Quest was a dungeon crawling board game and released in 1995 as a successor to HeroQuest and Advanced HeroQuest. It spawned numerous expansions and that original release wrapped up in 1998 and has since become a grail game for many.
HeroQuest, originally a joint venture between Milton Bradley and Games Workshop, was released in 1989 and was rereleased by Avalon Hill in 2020 with a crowdfunding a campaign with numerous expansions since in 2020.
Warhammer Quest was revived with Warhammer Quest: Silver Tower in 2017 which was followed up with Warhammer Quest: Shadows Over Hammerhal in 2017, Warhammer Quest: Blackstone Fortress in 2018, and Warhammer Quest: Cursed City in 2021.

It’s a new year and Games Workshop has revealed its release for the 2025 Commemorative Series miniatures for events. You can get these miniatures at events Warhammer attends and features one figure for Warhammer: Age of Sigmar and another for Warhammer 40,000.
Skaven Clawlord Kettek Throatbite is armed with a pair of sharp weapons and is flying the flag of Blight City on his shoulders.
Clawlords are battlefield commanders who throw hordes of Clanrats at the enemy.
For Warhammer 40,000 comes the Genestealer Cults Primus. A commander for Genestealer Cults, they’re duelists who get into the fight.
The miniature comes with a choice of two head options featuring either a mask or showing off their hybrid mutations.
Both miniatures will be available for the first time at AdeptiCon 2025.
Every year, Warhammer stores celebrate their anniversary with exclusive miniatures (though they may be made available again in the future) and special swag. Games Workshop has revealed what’s coming for 2025.
Biosigns Terminated is for 40K fans and features a Genestealer having just ripped apart a Terminator. It’s a callback to the classic Space Hulk and the battles within the classic game.
Estenna of Brighthall is a Knight-Zephyros , ready to mete out Sigmar’s wrath. Clad in sleek Thunderstrike armor the figure is armed to the teeth and ready to strike.
The Light of the Emperor and Other Stories is a hardback book anthology featuring five short stories, The Eyeless Mask by Liane Merciel, Starstruck by Denny Flowers, False Dawn by Chistopher Allen, The Light of the Emperor by Darius Hinks and Primacy by Marc Collins.
There’s also extras the more you spend. You can get an official Warhammer Dice Cup, four metal Warhammer dice, and a double-sided neoprene gaming mat with a Ghyran-themed Spearhead setup on one side, and the war-torn rubble of Warhammer 40,000 on the other – two of these mats is enough for a Combat Patrol game. There’s also a pin badge featuring either an Ultramarines Chaplain or a Hallowed Knights Liberator.
We’re building three Warhammer: Age of Sigmar armies with the Warpfire Warpcrate. How much will we save? How big will the armies be? Find out in this experiment!
