We know it’s taken a bit longer than usual for you to get your issue this month – thanks for bearing with us! Before we jump into our preview for the next issue, we’ve got a bit of an update on some key dates and info for this and future issues. Then, at the end of the article, we’ve got some good news on a great digital offer if you missed out on any of last year’s issues! 

So, first up, how and when are we going to be getting your White Dwarfs to you? Here’s the rundown:

White Dwarf 453 will go on sale on games-workshop.com this weekend.
White Dwarf 454 (the one we’re previewing below) is 160 pages and will go on sale in the last week of June.
White Dwarf 455 will be coming out on 21 August, so 2020 will have 10 issues, instead of 12.
If you’re a subscriber, we’ll add two months to your current subscription (so you’ll still get 12 issues even though there are only 10 coming out this year).
You can now start subscriptions again, starting with issue 455, to get White Dwarf delivered straight to your door.
