SEASONAL FACTION RELEASES

SEASON 1: LIZARDMEN


Lizardmen, renowned for their 8,000-year history in Blood Bowl, exemplify unparalleled team spirit and expertise from each caste on the pitch.

SEASON 2: UNDERWORLD DENIZENS


Underworld teams, fueled by warpstone and exotic mushrooms, consist of Goblins, Skavens, Trolls, Rat Ogres, and Snotlings, seeking revenge by humiliating the richest teams.

SEASON 3: SHAMBLING UNDEAD


Traditionalist necromancy teams feature elite thousand-year-old Mummies, Skeletons, Ghouls, and occasionally freshly risen Zombies stolen from opposing teams.

SEASON 4: WOOD ELF


Wood Elf teams, known for their dazzling performances and susceptibility to spectacular defeats, are incredibly popular for their superior gameplay and stunning presence.

SEASON 5: NECROMANTIC HORROR


Comprising reanimated zombies, resilient flesh golems, swift werewolves, and sinister wraiths, the Necromantic Horrors brings a unique blend of strength, speed, and dark magic to the pitch.

SEASON 6: HALFLINGS & GOBLINS


The first two pint-sized teams join the game. They may be small but they're certainly not harmless: the Halflings and Goblins have all the tools they need to turn the match in their favour and beat the odds.

SEASON 7: NORSE


The fierce Norse teams are masters of aggressive blocking and high-risk plays. Prepare your players for even more intense matches, where every confrontation could turn deadly. The Norse season brings the fury of the North directly on to the field!

SEASON 8: AMAZONS


Hardened by the tropical jungles where they grew up, Amazon teams combine agility, cunning and ferocity. On the field, these warrior-athletes skilfully dodge their opponents, while showering those who dare underestimate them with blows.

SEASON 9: KHORNE


Ruthless and frenzied, the Khorne teams unleash limitless violence on the pitch in the name of the Blood God. Their uncontrollable rage drives them to strike their opponents again and again, until the match is won, or there's nothing left standing on the field.

SEASON 10: VAMPIRES


Elegant, powerful, and agile, Vampire teams take to the Blood Bowl pitch to flaunt their immortal nobility. Few opponents can withstand them. At least, as long as the Vampires have their Thralls close at hand to quench their bloodthirst…

About the Game


Strap on your boots, don your helmet, adjust your shoulder guards and chest plate… and slip a sharpened dagger into your belt (discreetly).

Wars are no longer fought in the Old World since the populace decided to resolve their differences through a sport dedicated to the god Nuffle: Blood Bowl. However, just as much blood is shed in this sport as on the battlefields it replaced. Murder, mutilation, cheating, corruption, sorcery and even divine intervention are all fair game on the pitch, to the delight of every rabid fan!

  • Be merciless but not brainless – Take control of a team from 12 factions available, each with its own unique characteristics, and hobble the progress of your opponents by positioning your players wisely. Dodge or ruthlessly eliminate those who get in your way and reach the end zone to score decisive touchdowns! The cleverest strategists will obviously have the advantage, but will that be enough? An out-of-control troll could devour a team-mate and change the course of the match.

  • You're the boss – Create players; customize their appearance, emblems and armour; recruit cheerleaders and your coach; then compete in the fiercest competitions in the Old World. But be warned: injuries are common and there's a strong possibility that some of your players will leave the pitch feet first, putting a permanent end to their career…

What's new in Blood Bowl 3



  • Based on the official rules of the latest edition of the board game, including new skills and redesigned passing mechanics

The brand-new solo campaign



An agent has spotted your coaching achievements on the pitch and has decided to pay for you and your team to participate in a brand-new Blood Bowl event: the Clash of Sponsors. Can you destroy your opponents and make the crowd dream?

  • Compete against the most successful sponsor teams in the Old World
  • Pit yourself against star players who have become brand ambassadors, including the legendary Griff Oberwald
