The new edition of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy is almost here, and Warhammer+ is going all-in to celebrate.
This week brings fresh video content, nostalgia-fueled playthroughs, and a chance to win six JOYTOY Primarchs that would make even Horus smile. Let’s break down what’s happening.
A Cinematic Look Behind the Curtain
First up is a new episode of Deep Strike, focusing on the jaw-dropping trailer for the upcoming Horus Heresy edition. Alex sits down with Sarah and Adam from the Warhammer Studio to discuss how this dramatic short came together. From the emotional beats to the animation process, they pull back the curtain on what makes the Warmaster’s betrayal hit so hard.
Masterclass Hobbying on the Painting Desk
Over on Painting Desk, Ed invites Paul from the ’Eavy Metal team to showcase his Iron Ravens army. Every model in this force is painted to competition level, and Paul explains how he kept the army visually cohesive while making each unit pop. He also digs into real-world inspirations and his method for maintaining painting momentum across a large force. It’s ideal for hobbyists chasing that perfect balance between tabletop play and display quality.
Questing Knights Return to the Dungeon
Questing Knights brings back classic Warhammer Quest for episode two, and the nostalgia is strong. Dungeon Master Nick leads a band of heroes trying to stop a Waaagh! before it wrecks everything. The set used on screen was painted specifically for the show, adding another layer of charm. Whether you’re a veteran or a newer fan, it’s a fun watch that captures the old-school vibe.
