Hey Folks,
As revealed only a few short weeks ago, our next DLC for Total War: WARHAMMER III brings Khorne, Ogre Kingdoms, and Orcs & Goblins to the centre stage.
Today we’re thrilled to be sharing more insight into what you can expect when this content releases at the end of 2024, the Legendary Lords that are set to lead each faction (alongside some sneak peeks at a couple of key units), and how we’re using this time between now and the launch of this DLC to cast our eyes back onto the core game experience and to ask ourselves, and you, what changes and experiences we can bring to that.
Watch the full conversation with Senior Community Manager Steve Coleman, Senior Game Director Rich Aldridge, alongside DLC Lead designer Sean Macdonald, and Associate Game Director Victor Dosev right here 👇 👀
As talked about by Rich in this Development Update, our next DLC takes place entirely within Immortal Empires, and won’t feature a new campaign for The Realm of Chaos. We’ll continue to support campaigns in The Realm of Chaos regardless in our updates and hotfixes, ensuring that the experience is always fun, balanced, and available to old and new players alike, but we wanted to make sure everyone understood our direction for the game moving forward.
It’s also been a while since we talked to you so directly in this style of content, so please do share your thoughts and feedback on the format of videos like this too as we’d love to hear from you, and love to keep showing up on your screens just like this in the future.
We’ll return in the late summer with another development update from the teams, letting you know how we’re getting on with our work and to lift the curtain some more on the work we have in progress.
Meanwhile, we’ve just launched Update 5.1 for all players, bringing best boi Karanak to the roster alongside a tonne of fixes, balance passes, and improvements to the game. In the coming weeks, we’re looking to release a Hotfix to help tidy up a few latent issues we’ve spotted since the Update went live, and we’ll keep you updated on future our releases as we roll out each one.
We’re otherwise especially keen to hear how you’re feeling about today’s news, so please do join us over on the Official Total War Discord, and the Total War Forums to share your feedback, and pose all-new questions for us to look at answering in the future.
See you on the battlefields,
Freeman // Head of Community
