Featuring four iconic new races from the Warhammer Fantasy Battles world – the High Elves, Dark Elves, Lizardmen, and The Skaven – 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.
The Warden & The Paunch introduces two new Legendary Lords for the Greenskins and High Elves races, both featuring in an interwoven campaign that culminates in an epic showdown that will determine the future of the fabled Kingdom of Yvresse.
A Fierce Rivalry
Warlord Grom, known more famously as Grom the Paunch is the only Greenskins warlord to have ever successfully invaded the fabled isles of Ulthuan, home of the High Elves. Both bloated and unstoppable, Grom is an indomitable character blessed with supreme power and a WAAAGH! eager for fightin'.
Eltharion, Prince of Yvresse, is one of the most renowned High Elves in all Ulthuan having achieved what many of his kin consider impossible many times. Mounted atop his ethereal griffon named Stormwing, he is vengeance incarnate, and will do all that he can to protect Yvresse from the forthcoming green tide.
Deadly New Units
Brute force meets deadly elegance as a host of new units take to the battlefields of the New World. These harbingers of death range from new hero units such as the Arch Mage and Giant River Troll Hag to devastating ground troops such as magical Rogue Idols, the majestic Arcane Phoenix, and the deadly War Lions of Chrace.
Free Legendary Lord
Prince Imrik of Caledor will be free to all Total War: Warhammer II players. This mighty Lord of Dragons has never once broken an oath to a friend and is determined to help Eltharion defend the realm against the mighty green tide that stands before them.
Old World Update
Alongside this DLC pack a new update for all players of Total War: Warhammer II will be ushered in. This Old World Update consists of considerable quality of life improvements to the Greenskin faction including improvements to the WAAAGH! mechanic, chariot mounts and much more.
