As 2024 draws to a close, we're back with a new topic with a summary of the news and speculations of 2025 and the releases of the quarter of course. 2025 will be full of projects and will be the year when Corvus Belli becomes the new Amazingzon, the new Netfix, the New Bitcoincoin of wargames game. 2025 news recap Article CB https://corvusbelli.com/en/press-room/blog/annual-summary Spoiler: Article pasted Reviewing 2024 Projects Warcrow Adventures has already started to arrive to the Kickstarter backers and we hope it will be in all your homes soon. Warcrow, the fantasy wargame, is already part of our catalog. The background book and the first boxes of Embersig's Hegemony and the Northern Tribes are being a much bigger success than we expected and that makes us very happy (and nervous)! The Infinity universe keeps growing: We announce the arrival of the new edition of Infinity: N5. This updated version has the same essence as N4, but with certain changes in the system that improve the game experience. With this new edition, we leave behind Infinity Codeone to give way to the Essentials line. A new system to introduce new players in a guided way, with video tutorials, adapted table sizes and specific missions that will make them learn step by step. We met Sybilla, the artificial intelligence that collects all the data about the Infinity universe. Ask her about your favorite troop, for example: Talk to Sybilla Acheron’s Fall, the ships game based on our universe triumphs in its crowdfunding campaign and will soon go on sale in stores. Ramper Design is the brand behind this great game. Winged Hussar Publishing released a new novel: By Fire and Sword. Yet another story in this series that is getting the community hooked. The long awaited Aristeia video game, developed by Blindspot Games continues its way to release. Its name is The Hexadome: Aristeia Showdown and right now it is in closed beta, so you can already save it in your wishlist on Steam. And we were already late in mentioning the craziest moment of the year, because we went to the San Diego Comic Con to present the animated series directed by Jay Oliva and produced by Lex+Otis: Infinity Paradise Lost! We don't have a premiere date yet, but we can tell you that it looks amazing. You can watch the teaser on the channel here: Our partners Joytoy , Baron of Dice and Microart Studio have released new products from our IP this year. In addition, Safe and Sound joined this list of collaborators for the first time to put on sale some miniature transport boxes with magnetic surface, which besides being comfortable, they are very cool. Check out their profiles to see what's new. Events We attended more events than ever: Freak Wars in Madrid, Salute, Spiel Essen in Germany, Nova Open in Washington, and the obligatory annual Adepticon in Chicago and Gen Con in Indianapolis. We also attended the UK Games Expo as exhibitors for the first time. And let's not forget the San Diego Comic Con, where we held a seminar where we gave away an exclusive miniature of the animated series for those who attended. This work, along with efforts in other areas such as contests and the increase of quality audiovisual content, has helped a lot to gain online popularity. All this has meant that this 2024, during Black Friday, we have reached a record in the history of Corvus Belli, with several products sold out and a volume of sales that has blown us away. The team We had long seen the need for an equality plan to help build an inclusive environment both internally and externally and in 2024 we have taken those first steps. We have expanded the Partial Teleworking Program to a maximum of 3 days a week in certain positions to respond to the demands of global business growth and organizational needs arising from the creation of teams of international professionals. We continue to add new faces to the team to support the different areas such as development, marketing and production, and we will start 2025 with 61 crows! 2025 Reviewing this year that is coming to an end and seeing all that we are accomplishing fills us with energy to face all the projects we have in process and the new challenges that are coming in 2025: We will finish with the delivery of Warcrow Adventures to those who participated in the crowdfunding. Once we finish this phase, we will make a flash sale in online store with the remaining units and we will put the product on sale in stores. In Adepticon the third nation of Warcrow will be released. And we will announce which one it will be after the holidays. And, also in Adepticon will come a new action pack for Infinity. A renewed sectorial with a boost of profiles. We will attend the classic events: Adepticon, Salute, UKGE, Gen Con, Nova Open, Freak Wars and SPIEL Essen. And we added an official Corvus Belli event in the United States with the biggest tournament in that continent: The Corvus Belli Krug Tournament that will kick off the second edition of IGW. We are preparing a community app for 2025: It will have the following functions: manage tournaments and events, create personal profiles with game data, follow other players, receive news, share photos... We want it to be a meeting point for those who enjoy any of our games. Warcrow will have its own competitive scene, so you can start defending your nation against others in the first Corvus Belli fantasy tournaments! We'll see you at the official Corvus Belli: Interplanetario event, which after a one-year break is back. We already have the dates confirmed: July 18 to 20, 2025. Infinity celebrates its 20th anniversary. We'll have to do something special, won't we? ;) We will reveal a new game set in Infinity with remotes, cards and a lot of madness... And last but not least, during 2025 we will make a big announcement for Aristeia! including its rebranding, we will start talking about the second edition of the game which will be called Infinity HexaDome Legends. So, tell us: What would you like to see happen in 2025? Will you stay to see it?

We want it to be a meeting point for those who enjoy any of our games.” Warcrow's impact on Infinity - Corvus Belli has bought an annex building and doubled its production area, so there will be no impact on Infinity's level of releases, however it would be consistent to think that the number of big Infinity releases (such as the two-army boxes) and Infinity trade operations will fade a little to make room for trade operations for Warcrow. - What's more, we know that there will always be a team dedicated to Infinity and another to Warcrow, so there shouldn't be any halt in support for the games. - Corvus Belli reports here: http://www.bureau-aegis.org/forum/index.php?topic=15836.0 On Chinese plastic Unicool - “I spoke to Bostria on the stand and he told me that the plastic resin is made by Unicool in China. This carries an element of risk that they are not used to in terms of over or under production, and means a much longer design pipeline as the sculptures have to be ready at least 6 months before release. They're very happy with the material and it will be part of their regular catalog and releases, but it's not going to supplant Siocast and metal.” https://www.bureau-aegis.org/forum/index.php?msg=220375 - Unicool will be part of their regular catalog and releases, but it won't supplant Siocast and metal. https://www.bureau-aegis.org/forum/index.php?msg=220340
Infinity N5 - The Infinity N5 rules and the Army have been launched on the Corvus Belli website, all available free download. https://infinityuniverse.com/resources/infinity - There will be no simplified version like CodeOne, just a single version with a range of products for beginners called Essentials. - Wiki and ITS 16 will be updated to N5 standards in January 2025. - There will be no printed version of the rules, as Corvus Belli wants to make them rules that can evolve over time. - The French version of Infinity N5 will be released as a pdf in 2025, but no date has yet been announced. There seems to be a confusing problem with Légion Distribution, so it will either be available from them or from Corvus Belli. - ALEPH, Haqqislam and the Tohaa are not present in the N5 lore base book, and there's missing information on many sectorial, so there must be a second book to cover them. No info for a 2025 release. - ISS from Yu Jing will be released in Adepticon 2025. - Following the appearance of the Essentials range and the disappearance of sectorials and related troops, there will be some repackaging and even potential reskins. - PDF's will continue to exist for discontinued armies with their n4 profiling. https://www.bureau-aegis.org/forum/index.php?msg=221089 - CB article: “Infinity celebrates its 20th anniversary.

I really like new essentials PanO. Would be good for me, who were trying to get back. I missed old fusiliers, but I was sad, that not all of them got back in first box. Now I would get those two buddies. Combi rifle fusiliers guys look like charactres from the game "A way out". That is why I didnt want to separate them x)
Someone has succeeded in their Detection Jet and discovered the new version of Jamie. Spoiler: + Imperial service scheduled for spring 2025.
In the latest podcast from Winged Hussar Publishing, Craig Gallant announced a sequel to his infinity novel: Team Zell. https://forum.corvusbelli.com/threa...ity-anyone-know-when.40227/page-4#post-480777
