by Rainier on Feb. 22, 2017 @ 11:15 a.m. PST

Total War: Warhammer will take the strategy game series to a realm of grand high fantasy for the very first time in its history. Our rules have changed, and with change comes war on a scale as yet unimagined.

It is an age of endless conquest, thousands of warriors clash in titanic battles as entire races wage war on one another, each led by a formidable hero seeking dominion over the world.

All at your command.

The valiant Karl Franz marshals the men of the Empire, seeking to unite the fractured elector counts under a banner of strength against their common enemies. Hungry for the vicious brutality of combat, the Greenskins flock to the tribe of Grimgor Ironhide; Orcs and Goblins alike filled with an insatiable thirst for carnage. High King Thorgrim orders the stoic Dwarfs forth from their mountain strongholds, marching to vengefully right the grave injustices dealt to them over the millennia. Yet the motives of the Vampire Counts under Mannfred von Carstien are shrouded in murderous secrecy, his armies raised from the rotting ranks of the dead. And while the Old World becomes torn by betrayal, war and the unleashing of unfathomable power, a greater threat still whispers in the winds from the north. The fabric of reality itself begins to rend and buckle…

Total War: Warhammer gains a new playable Race next week with the arrival of Bretonnia on February 28th. Free for all players, the Bretonnia Race Pack DLC adds three new playable Legendary Lords, new units and unique features; offering hundreds of hours of new gameplay.

The latest in a long line of free updates, the noble knights and expendable peasants of feudal Bretonnia represent the biggest release of free content yet; and also mark the release of the ‘Old World Edition’ at selected retailers. This latest version of the game is the perfect place to start your Total War: Warhammer adventure, and includes the new Bretonnia and an exclusive Novella by Total War writer, Andy Hall.

Total War Access members can also get early access to Bretonnia, unlocking them 24 hours in advance by logging into their account from February 27th.

Now in its 15th year, the Total War continues to offer a unique combination of huge-scale real-time battles and an addictive turn-based campaign game of statecraft, politics and empire building.

The limitlessly deep and rich universe of Warhammer heralds a new era for Total War. Gigantic monsters, flying creatures, legendary heroes and storms of magical power take their place on the battlefield, alongside thousands of warriors clashing in real-time tactical battles.

In the turn-based campaign game, players will find the Old World an unforgiving and treacherous place, filled with endless war and cunning alliances alike. Whichever race you choose to play as and however you seek conquest, you will be faced with a conflict that threatens to tear the very fabric of reality asunder.
