Creative Assembly who are famous for epic scale turn based strategy games which based on real history has gone fantasy with the new reveal of Total War: Warhammer. Based on the Games Workshop world, it is the sister title to another famous franchise, Warhammer 40K which is sci-fi in nature.
According to the publisher, Sega, the Total War: Warhammer will wage the war on Mac, StreamOS and Windows PC. However, the word “soon” did not translate into exact date yet. According to Sega, they are planning “trilogy of titles” for the Totar War: Warhammer with the first game will combine with pair of stand-alone installments and additional content packs.
“We’ve always loved the Warhammer universe, and couldn’t wait to approach it with the same colossal scale and authenticity that has characterised our titles for the last 15 years,” according to Total War: Warhammer project lead Ian Roxburgh, “We’re bringing it to life in a way that nobody’s attempted before.”
In the trailer, we can see the armies of Empire, Orks, Dwarves, Undead and Goblins plus the coming menace of Chaos God Tzeentch which could be an unplayable enemy NPC faction. Notable absences are the two elven armies, Skaven and Lizardmen, but it is safe to say that publisher will release some factions as downloadable DLC after the release of the main game in rapid succession. And of course, the heroes will play a major role in the wars as seen with the Empire hero and the Undead shown in the trailer.
Let’s hope the bugs and lack of good AI will not plague this game too.
