Total War: Warhammer III to get a map trilogy mode in August

Total War: Warhammer III’s Immortal Empires mode will be released in August. This update will not only merge the playing fields of the three Total War: Warhammer rts games, but will also introduce a number of innovations.

Creative Assembly has on his own blog given more information about the upcoming free-to-download Immortal Empires game mode. Features are also introduced, such as a new faction led by Be’Lakor, known from Warhammer III’s Realm of Chaos campaign. There will also be factions for a number of Legendary Lords from Total War: Warhammer, including Volkmar the Grim, Grombrindal, and Helman Ghorst.

It was already known that the Immortal Empires mode would be released as a beta in the third quarter. The developer will combine everything it has introduced in the three Total War: Warhammer games, including races, factions, units and Legendary Lords. In addition, there will be sea routes to be able to transport armies from one side to the other.

Creative Assembly emphasizes that the beta status was deliberately chosen because “the entire three-game project will not be complete in the coming years.” To create the game mode, the development team had to collect and combine the content, features, mechanics, systems and code from three different codebases into one very large campaign. The developer explains that this is not about simply transferring content from one game to another. “It’s a mountain of phenomenal change-prone technical work,” the company says.
