It seems like Games Workshop is just rolling out the new editions for everything this year. Talisman is back with a new 5th edition coming out July 1, 2024. And the first 5th edition expansion will be out later this year, too! But let’s get into all the details.

For the new edition there’s new art and some “smart refinements” to the gameplay to make it a smoother experience.

Oh hey, remember above when we mentioned an expansion was coming later this year? Well say hello to Talisman Alliances: Fate Beckons.

Talisman is no stranger to expansions. The classic game had a TON of cool extras that really (and literally) expanded the board game. But Fate Beckons is adding something never before seen in Talisman: Co-operative game play.
