'Total War: Warhammer II' Gets Dated, Special Edition, Pre-Order Details - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on June 12, 2017 @ 10:02 a.m. PDT

Total War: Warhammer II takes the strategy game series to a realm of grand high fantasy, this time unveiling the mystery-shrouded continents far to the west of The Old World.

Featuring four iconic new races from the Warhammer Fantasy Battles world – the High Elves, Dark Elves, Lizardmen, and a fourth yet to be revealed – players will battle across enchanted isles, bleak hinterlands, treacherous swamps, and perilous jungles.

In a Total War campaign like no other, players will struggle for dominion over the ailing Great Vortex that has swirled for millennia above the elven homeland of Ulthuan. Performing a series of arcane rituals, each race must save or disrupt the Vortex according to their motivations – a struggle culminating in a cataclysmic endgame. Territorial conquest is no longer enough… this is a race for control that will define the fate of the world!

Total War: Warhammer II will offer hundreds of hours of immersive gameplay in this epic new campaign.

Shortly after launch, owners of both the original game and Total War: Warhammer II will gain access to the colossal new combined campaign. Merging the landmasses of The Old World plus Naggaroth, Lustria, Ulthuan and the Southlands into a single epic map, players may embark on monumental campaigns as any owned Race from both titles.


Anyone pre-ordering Total War: Warhammer II through a SEGA approved retailer before release or buying in the first week on sale will gain an Early Adopter bonus of a free Race Pack DLC for the original Total War: Warhammer. This yet-to-be-revealed content for the first game will be out and playable before the second game is released.

  • Embossed Metal Case: Protect your game discs from Lustrian perils with this lovingly-sculpted metal case.
