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.


In the verdant jungles around Southern China, forces so far unmet are stirring. The disparate tribes of the Nanman have for centuries lain divided, but now a new leader must emerge to unite them – by any means necessary.

Coming September 3, 2020, The Furious Wild is the first expansion pack for Total War: Three Kingdoms, introducing four new factions and an extension to the sprawling map of third century China. Explore the deadly jungles of the south and with it, the fearsome tribes of the Nanman; their story awaits.

Play as the formidable tribal warlords Meng Huo, King Mulu, Lady Zhurong, and King Shamole and unleash unique mechanics and weapons of war against those who threaten your homeland, from flaming mace and blowpipe units, to revered elephants and tigers. Can you unify these indomitable jungle warriors and take on the mighty Han, or will warfare take its toll on these newly formed allegiances?

Southern Tribes includes:

  • Four new playable factions embodying the best and bravest of a new culture; the Nanman
  • 25+ new units including exciting and formidable animal units
  • Expanded map showcasing the lush but deadly jungles of southern China
  • A new tech tree and faction mechanics
  • Unique missions and narrative events bespoke for the Nanman culture
  • Playable in 190 and 194 start dates

The new expansion also ushers in free content and quality of life improvements for all Three Kingdoms players, including a new Han Warlord – Shi Xie, flame-firing Juggernaut artillery, Gate Battles and much more.

Total War: Three Kingdoms is currently available on PC.
