Games Workshop is poised for significant profits, forecasting at least £310 million in revenue for the six months leading up to November 2025, marking a 15% increase from the previous year. Despite an anticipated decline in licensing revenue from the popular Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, which sold over 7 million copies, the company continues to thrive due to its extensive range of tabletop games and miniatures. The success of Space Marine 2 has been pivotal for the studio, with ongoing developments like Space Marine 3 and a growing multimedia approach, including planned films and series under Henry Cavill's Warhammer cinematic universe. While future video game hits remain uncertain, both the company and its CEO maintain optimism and caution about the evolving gaming landscape.

What are the future plans for Warhammer 40,000 games after Space Marine 2?

Future plans include the development of Space Marine 3 and ongoing searches for the next blockbuster Warhammer video game. Games Workshop aims to expand its storytelling through video games and other media, with a cinematic universe in the works, promising more immersive experiences for fans.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is notable for revitalizing interest in the franchise, bringing back fan-favorite character Captain Titus and introducing thrilling gameplay mechanics. This sequel has set a new benchmark for Warhammer video games, making it the most successful title in the series thus far. With Games Workshop's diverse portfolio that extends beyond gaming into films and animations, the franchise is poised for further expansion and innovation in the coming years.
