Games Workshop Announces New Warhammer World Flagship in the United States

Summary

• Games Workshop will open a second Warhammer World flagship near Washington D.C., in late 2027
• The venue will offer immersive dioramas, gaming halls, and exclusive retail
• The expansion anchors a growing fandom fueled by Henry Cavill’s upcoming Amazon series

Games Workshop has officially announced plans to establish its second Warhammer World flagship in the United States, targeting a late 2027 opening. Slated for construction just outside Washington D.C., the venue aims to replicate the prestige of the company’s legendary Nottingham headquarters, serving as a premier social and competitive hub for the North American hobbyist community.

The U.S. location will feature sprawling exhibition halls with large-scale dioramas, themed gaming areas, and exclusive retail offerings. According to Games Workshop, rather than a “brick-for-brick” replica, the venue is designed as an uncompromising celebration of the franchise’s rich lore across both Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar.

This expansion seeks to reinforce the brand’s explosive success and the surging popularity of Warhammer 40,000, which has grown far beyond the confines of the tabletop. Today, a loyal fandom meticulously analyzes lore and speculates on future developments. Following the massive impact of Space Marine 2, the IP has successfully transcended its niche origins—a move further bolstered by the upcoming Amazon Cinematic Universe helmed by Henry Cavill. With 11th Edition rumors swirling and sequels like Space Marine 3 and Dawn of War 4 in development, the new Warhammer World arrives as a strategic anchor for an ever-growing community, ensuring a physical “home” for the newcomers rallied by the setting’s recent mainstream surge.
