Press release:
Lesquin, France, 12 December 2023.
Cyanide Studio and NACON are today very proud and pleased to announce that they have just kicked-off the third season of “Blood Bowl 3 “.

Fill up on new features with the Shambling Undead faction, 4 new Star Players and the Blood Pass unlockable rewards! Blood Bowl 3 is available on PC, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.

Check out the newly available faction: the Shambling Undead
Shambling Undead teams are drawn from a mix of vicious undead creatures and former Blood Bowl players who died on the pitch and – through the art of necromancy – have been given the chance of a second career! With their smart blend of slow but powerful players, such as Mummies and Zombies, as well as faster but less durable players such as Ghouls and Skeletons, the Shambling Undead form a versatile team with which players can easily get to grips.

The arrival of the Shambling Undead team is also accompanied by a new field, coach, cheerleader squad and a ball themed for this faction. As a side note, players can also purchase the Season 1 & 2 teams from the Blood Pass separately.

Brief feedback on Season 2 in figures and anecdotes:

The start of Season 3 provides the opportunity to review the previous one, and share a few (in)dispensable facts and figures! For example, did you know that the three most played factions in the Diamond/Master divisions were the Orcs, Dwarves and Chaos Chosen? How many matches were played, how many points were scored or successful passes made over the course of the season? Discover the answer to these questions, and many more, in the infographic below:
