MSRP for the new books has not been announced.
Games Workshop relaunched Necromunda last year with a boxed set edition (see “Dive Into the Depths of War in ‘Necromunda: Underhive’”). A separate skirmish-level game called Kill Team, also set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, was released earlier this year (see “Skirmish Scale ‘Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team’ Launches”). The popularity of the two games has helped drive the long-running Warhammer 40,000 miniatures line to the top of the sales charts (on our Pro site, see “PRO: Miniatures Games Market Report and Top Brands Chart – Summer 2018”).
