A: I wouldn’t call it Calth II or a Calth sequal. It’s a boxed game during the Heresy. There are Space Marines. Similarities end there.

Which follows up on the last set of info from just a few days back:

So, is this another offering from the fledgling Specialist Games Studio or is this a GW Main Studio product?

A: This is main studio. It is in hard plastic and the miniatures can be used in 40K without conversions.People underestimate the lead time on those boxed games / starter sets in plastic.The Deathwatch game was finished by the time EF was released.

The AoS-themed boxed game you’ll see this summer was finished by the time the AoS starter was released.
The second HH boxed game this fall was finished by the time Calth was released.The specialist games studio was launched a little more than a month ago. The teased Blood Bowl stuff was probably the first work this team did after starting their new jobs in January. It will likely be among the first things they will release, and I don’t think they are aiming for 2016.

Remember there were previous rumors doing the the rounds of such a box from January:

GW Rumors: Betrayal at Calth Sequels!

~It looks like GW is keen to recreate the magic of the first Betrayal At Calth release this fall! I bet it’s for a slighty higher pricepoint too…
