'Total War: Three Kingdoms' Sells One Million Copies In Its First Week

Total War: Three Kingdoms is the next major historical title in the Total War strategy series, and the first to explore ancient China.

It is 190CE and China is in turmoil. The Han Dynasty crumbles before the child-emperor, who is a mere puppet for the tyrant Dong Zhuo. The brutal and oppressive regime’s power grows as the empire slips further into anarchy. Yet hope blossoms in the form of three heroes, sworn to brotherhood in the face of calamity. Warlords of great families follow suit, forming a fragile coalition in a bid to challenge Dong Zhuo’s remorseless rule. The future of China will be shaped by their hands, but personal ambition threatens their already crumbling alliance.

Inspired by the beauty and artistic style of the age, Total War: Three Kingdoms breathes life into the heroes of this fascinating period as they struggle to unite China under a single banner.

Total War: Three Kingdoms just became the fastest-selling title in Creative Assembly's acclaimed strategy franchise, topping one million copies sold in its first week. This incredible milestone comes on the heels of a record-breaking release that smashed concurrent player numbers for any strategy title on Steam, making it the platform's biggest launch of 2019 to date.

"We knew we had something special with Three Kingdoms but the response from players, old and new, has exceeded all expectations," said Rob Bartholomew, Chief Product Officer. "We're seeing a lot of 'best Total War ever' comments out there. We're very proud."

Total War: Three Kingdoms is currently available on PC.
