How to watch Warhammer Skulls 2024
Games Workshop will broadcast updates on the various video games under the Warhammer umbrella during its yearly Warhammer Skulls presentation. This is the eighth Warhammer Skulls event, and it’ll take place on May 23 on the official Warhammer Twitch stream. The stream will begin at 12 p.m. EDT/9 a.m. PDT.
Luckily, we’re currently in a golden age of Warhammer-related video games. If you’re a fan of shooters, there’s the tongue-in-cheek retro-inspired Boltgun, or the visceral and frenetic co-op horde shooter Darktide. We’ll likely get more information on Space Marine 2, the long awaited sequel to Captain Titus’s Ork-stomping adventure. This time, the Ultramarine will be going up against Tyranids and the Thousand Sons.
We can also likely expect news on Rogue Trader, the sprawling CRPG from Owlcat Games. Rogue Trader is set to receive narrative DLC packs, so we may get to meet some new companions or explore new facets of the Koronus Expanse.
These games all take place in the Warhammer 40,000 setting, but the Warhammer franchise includes the Horus Heresy, a prequel series to the sci-fi behemoth, as well as the Age of Sigmar and Warhammer Fantasy settings. These have played host to some great games, like the Blood Bowl series, Vermintide, or the Total War: Warhammer games.
Warhammer is a massive hobby, spanning across tabletop games, animations, novels, audio plays, a forthcoming Amazon series headed by Henry Cavill, and video games. There’s room for a lot of interesting news to emerge during Warhammer Skulls, and and the festival will continue on past the announcement showcase on May 23 through May 30.
