This new show, Penitence, follows Battle Sisters hauling a sacred relic to a future pilgrimage site.
However, the trip immediately turns ugly, so they have to push through a hostile wilderness swarming with vicious xenos. The spotlight lands on the Order of the Sacred Rose, and they bring that calm, icy discipline. Still, once the shooting starts, they hit like a power sword to the teeth. Their foes are Snakebite Orks, so expect brutal, close-range scraps. Also, yes, squigs are confirmed, so Ork players can start cheering now. Episode one arrives next month on Warhammer TV for Warhammer+ subscribers. Finally, the preview also points you toward the hub for the other reveals.
Relic Run, Then Everything Goes Loud
A squad of Battle Sisters is on a delivery mission, and it is the holy kind. They are transporting a sacred relic to a would-be place of pilgrimage. Of course, things do not go to plan, and the road turns into a fight. So the Sisters have to carve a path through a hostile landscape. Meanwhile, the area is crawling with savage xenos, and the relic still needs to arrive.
Sacred Rose Calm, Snakebite Brutality, Plus Squigs
The Order of the Sacred Rose has that unflinching, statue-still vibe. However, do not mistake calm for softness when the bolts start flying. They can maul with the best of them once blades start swinging. Also, the visual of pristine alabaster armour getting splattered is peak 40k mood. The enemy lineup is Orks, and specifically Snakebites. Because Snakebites lean feral and brutal, the combat should get properly visceral up close. And yes, squigs are in it, so the Ork side gets their mascots too.
Release Timing, Warhammer+ Perks, and the Bigger Preview
Episode one lands next month on Warhammer TV, but only for Warhammer+ subscribers. Also, the pitch for Warhammer+ is the usual good stuff: a pile of animations and a free miniature. Finally, this was only one reveal, so the preview hub is where the rest of the news lives.
