Their passion, technological expertise, and just sheer ‘can do’ attitude has been seriously impressive,” said Jon Gillard Head of Licensing for Games Workshop. “Taking the richness of Warhammer Age of Sigmar and merging it with their innovative hybrid physical/digital trading card game makes for a winning combination anyway, but add in the cool AR functionality and this game really is something special.”
