New factions in Warhammer 40K: Tacticus, Warpforge

Warhammer Skulls 2025 Unveils Major Content Across Franchise

A Bounty of Warhammer Content Arrives

This year's Warhammer Skulls 2025 event delivered an overwhelming array of announcements for fans. The showcase revealed multiple new games, expansion packs, and substantial updates spanning the Warhammer universe. Mobile enthusiasts received particularly exciting news with the introduction of Adeptus Custodes in Tacticus and Emperor's Children in Warpforge.

Command the Emperor's Elite Guard

Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus welcomes a formidable new Imperium faction - the Adeptus Custodes. As the Emperor's personal protectors, these warriors surpass even Space Marines in strength, resilience, and firepower.

Players can assemble this elite force through a Legendary Survival Event launching May 24th. Leading the charge is Trajann Valoris, a champion engineered to withstand punishment while delivering devastating counterattacks.

Explore their combat capabilities in the official gameplay trailer below. Download Tacticus now to participate when the Survival Event begins.

The Emperor's Fallen Descendants Arrive

Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge takes a radically different approach by introducing the corrupted Emperor's Children. Once loyal defenders of the Imperium, these warriors embraced chaos during the Horus Heresy and now serve Slaanesh's destructive whims.

This depraved faction features three unique warlords:

Lord Kaphrael - Eliminates enemy champions while commanding the ruthless Callous Blades
Xarahan - Embraces arrogance as a battle tactic
Lucius the Eternal - Brings centuries of lethal dueling experience

Their gameplay mechanics reflect their chaotic nature:

Ecstasy: Triggers effects at specific health thresholds
Cruelty: Rewards injuring enemies without finishing them
Stimulation: Activates when units receive stratagems
Combat Elixirs: Generates additional stratagems

The Emperor's Children are now available through new booster packs and DLC. Completing their introductory campaign awards players with a complete deck.

Beyond these faction updates, Warhammer 40,000 enthusiasts can anticipate Supremacy: Warhammer 40,000 - an entirely new game launching soon. Learn more about this exciting development in our exclusive coverage.
