2025 releases speculation thread.

[jimbo1701]

Hi all. I thought this might be useful to outline what is coming this year for 40K in roughly the order it is coming and based on what has been rumoured. Any speculation on my part will be marked with an asterisk. Obviously there will be kill team and MTO in there also. Likely a fair chunk of these will be in release sets too with older models. 
 

emperors children - know contents 

death guard - lord 

thousand sons - automata

world eaters - single model (surgeon) or larger wave* 

daemons - likely no codex but possibly some models with the relevant cult marines*
black Templars - single model (the long rumoured ancient?)*

grey knights - single model dread knight upgrade 

space marines - second wave - unclear if new book / boxed sets also. 
chaos knights - new armiger size release

imperial knights - new shield questoris knight 

Votann - second wave?*

drukhari - single model vs wave release? 
corsairs - rumoured small wave release. 
space wolves - full wave release.

It’s already confirmed demons are no longer their own faction I thought.

As for DE, I’d bet they get a full release wave whatever that means, but definitely more than a single model.

 

id bet on a new warrior kit, maybe court of the archon kit, and possibly a brand new kit.

I mentioned them as some of the rumour engines appear like they could be daemons so despite no codex I wonder if some models are coming either primarily for aos or incorporated into the cult marine books.

Grey Knights ought to have an upscaled refresh. Change no lore but just give them upscaled models like Crowe. That would be nice.

agreed but valraks source hasn’t mentioned them - he seems to think 11th. Bit of an odd move as they stand out like a sore thumb compared to the rest of the power armour and for the sake of 2 kits I would have thought they would be a priority. Unless GK sell poorly of course. 

[TheMawr]

There is the GK kill team rumor, wich unless something new could technically be 50% of a refresh.

But I dont think the 4 PA units will remain one kit when updated, probably split in two.

And im half wondering if the GK kill team is going to be something really leftfield.. grey knight techmarine with a bigger unit of some new GK specific servitor type, giving them a chaff unit like CSM factions have... lorewise an anti daemon engine thing or something.

Nope, now you get sigma grey knights!

 

magos superior supreme has actually been working on them for 5k years and created 10000000000 in that time!
