The release of this IP crossover set was originally scheduled for August 12, 2022 (see "Universes Beyond 'Warhammer 40,000'"), but now the new release date will be October 7, 2022. Retailers' Commander Launch Parties for this set have been moved to October 7 to 9, 2022. The delay was once again caused by supply chain issues, which is a problem that has plagued WotC throughout 2022 (see "'Double Masters 2022' Delays", and also, "'D&D' Set Product Delays").
Furthermore, their supply chain issues have created a situation where delayed set release dates are colliding with one another. Unfinity and Universes Beyond: Warhammer 40,000 are now releasing on the same date (see "'Unfinity' Product Line Deets"). Thus, their Launch Party events will also coincide during the same time, which could potentially cause event scheduling chaos for retailers.Blames Delay on Ongoing Issues with Supply Chain
