Games Workshop is on fire. For the year ending June 1, 2025, the Warhammer 40K maker posted £560 million in core revenue (up from £494.7 m) and £50 m in licensing (up from £31 m), yielding a combined pre‐tax profit of £255 m. To thank its roughly 1,500 employees, the Nottingham-based company is handing out £20 m in bonuses (about £13,333 or $18,000 each).

Beyond miniatures, Games Workshop is cashing in on video games and media—think Space Marine 2 & 3, Amazon’s Secret Level series and a Henry Cavill-led cinematic universe. Licensing hit a record this year (though it may level off), and with big announcements still rolling out from the recent Warhammer Skulls showcase, the tabletop titan shows no signs of slowing down.
