World Championships of Warhammer – Atlanta Georgia 2024
A new World Championships of Warhammer will take place in Atlanta Georgia between the 21st and 24th of November. There have been 325 qualifying events across five continents, with winning players earning their places at the championships.
700 players representing 50 countries will participate in this global celebration. Individual and Country Champions will be crowned for the following game systems: Warhammer 40,000, Warhammer Age of Sigmar, Kill Team, and Warhammer Underworlds.
The Warhammer Community blog post asked “We’re less than a month away from the World Championships of Warhammer, and there’s a real tournament buzz. Who will be crowned the best player in the world? Will we have another nail-biting finish on the cards? Which country will top our international leaderboards?”

just as this year’s World Championships will see the largest number of attendees, there will be more coverage than ever. Games Workshop will cover all four game systems in English, while Warhammer 40,000 will also be covered in French and Spanish. While Warhammer Age of Sigmar will also have French commentary, and Kill Team will have Spanish commentary.
The community blog also noted there will be individual World Champions.
Players will compete in pools on Thursday and Friday. Over the weekend, the Top 16 from each game system will compete for the title of World Champion in their chosen game, in which all players will compete for awards such as Best Overall and Best in Faction.
It is expected that games will begin as early as 8:30 am each day and will finish between 6 pm and 7 pm depending on the game system. There will be ongoing information updates about the game schedule and coverage one week before the main event.
The Warhammer Underworlds tournament, the first of the new edition of the World Championships, will commence in February 2025. This will follow the conclusion of the World Championships and Grand Narrative.
