Games Workshop has revealed that classic characters are getting rules for Necromunda, expanding the options available in its underhive gang warfare game. The update was highlighted on Warhammer Community, where the focus is on how these familiar figures can be brought into matches.
According to the announcement, players will be able to use Bounty Hunters, Hangers-On, and other character types in their games. That points to broader roster-building choices and more ways to customize a gang beyond its core fighters.
For Necromunda players, the news suggests a rules framework that helps fold older or well-known characters into current battles without leaving them as purely background flavor. It also fits the game’s emphasis on campaign play, narrative encounters, and colorful personalities operating around the gangs themselves.
While full details were not included in the brief preview, the headline and description make clear that the update is designed to show exactly how these characters can be used on the tabletop. For fans of Necromunda, that means more support for classic character options in the game’s evolving rules set.
