Digital Releases: Updates



The new digital products are not yet something I personally get to take advantage of, however, they are something I watch closely since I am very excited about GW going digital and what can happen in the future with this.


There are a number of updates on this, and I have included the original rumor as well as the update. Please remember that this is a rumor.

via Stickmonkey on Warseer from a couple days ago
Had a conversation with my source about the digital releases. Apparently, I was confused on the release schedules. Digital releases will NOT coincide with a model or physical book release weekend to spread out the offerings. I was originally told first weekend of the month, and this was true for July. However it's apparently the first weekend without a model release. This means there could be something nearly every week coming out.

Pattern like this:
1. Big release ( new models, codex, army books, etc.)
2. Digital releases
3. Wave releases (finecast conversions seem to fill this mostly)
4. WD

If true, all my release dates above would slip a week from what I stated.

Cheers.
