Warhammer 40K Next Week: Exodites Join Kill Team, Plus Heresy Squads - Bell of Lost Souls

What the report says

Bell of Lost Souls reports that Games Workshop’s upcoming Warhammer 40,000 pre-orders will be led by a new Exodites boxed set for Kill Team, alongside additional Kill Team releases and Horus Heresy infantry kits. The article, by J.R. Zambrano and dated July 19, 2026, says the releases are expected “next week,” with the Exodite set presented as the headline item.

According to the report, the Exodites Kill Team box features Aeldari “Dragon Masters” facing Beast Snagga Orks. The set is described as including three Dragon Masters and two Drakolithes for the Exodite side, while the Ork side includes 10 Beast Snagga Boyz and five Squighog Boyz that can serve as non-player opponents in narrative missions. The release is notable for bringing the dinosaur-riding Exodite theme back into focus for the skirmish-scale Kill Team line.

Bell of Lost Souls also says several Kill Team products are being made available separately or as broader plastic kits. The Spectre Squad from the Terror on Devlan box is listed as an individual release, while Kroot Farstalkers, Navy Breachers, the Extraction Squad, Fellgor Beastmen, Raptors and Kasrkin are described as moving into multi-part plastic kits suitable for regular Warhammer 40,000 armies.

For Horus Heresy players, the reported pre-orders include a MkIV Tactical Squad with 20 Marines and compatibility-focused vambrace parts, plus a MkIV Assault Squad with 10 Marines in Maximus armor. The article also lists a weapons upgrade pack containing combi-volkites, combi-flamers, combi-plasmas, combi-meltas and Astartes shotguns, expanding options for Veteran squads.
