We’ve long spoken about our end-goal for the Total War: Warhammer trilogy: to realise the Warhammer Fantasy Battles world in the most complete and detailed way as possible. It’s been fascinating to hear how our test groups and reviewers, Youtubers and livestreamers are reacting to this new type of endgame in Total War, and we can’t wait for you to get your hands on it soon. We’re a couple of weeks out from part II launching, and we’re stoked about how the Eye of the Vortex campaign is going down. This being the most complex Total War campaign we will have released to date, we’d like to plan have a short period of open beta testing just before we release it, this requires WARHAMMER II to be out and for players to be familiar with all the new races and features.Īcross the whole Total War: Warhammer trilogy, each instalment will stand alone as its own game, each with its own discrete campaign.

Each requires significant playtesting and balancing.

The Combined Campaign will be truly vast. The Vortex campaign, with its dedicated narrative, unique features, mechanics and flavour, is a big project in its own right. Why won’t the Combined Campaign be available right at launch? This will be shortly after launch, weeks not months, and will be our very first content release. This will allow you to start epic campaigns as any owned race (including any DLC races you own). What’s going on with the mega combined campaign you talked about before?įor owners of both WARHAMMER I and WARHAMMER II, our first content release shortly after launch (free of course) will be a vast, combined campaign map representing the geographical areas of both games in a single map. If you own any DLC or Free-LC for WARHAMMER I (like the Chaos Warriors, Wood Elves and Beastmen, or Lord Packs) you’ll also still have access to their unique narrative campaigns of course, and will be able to play as those races in both the Old World campaign and the new Combined Campaign. If you own both games you get 3 huge campaign maps the original one featuring the Old World, a new one featuring the New World and the Vortex, and a Combined Campaign map featuring both of those areas joined together. What do I get if I own both WARHAMMER I and WARHAMMER II?
