Total War: Warhammer II Announces Release Date At E3

The next title in Creative Assembly's thrilling fantasy-strategy series, Total War: Warhammer II, has an official release date: September 28^th 2017. Set in a whole new part of the Warhammer world, it introduces four new playable races in a storming narrative campaign that builds to an earth-shattering crescendo.

Anyone pre-ordering Total War: Warhammer II through a SEGA approved retailer before release or buying in the first week on sale will gain an Early Adopter bonus of a free Race Pack DLC for the original Total War: Warhammer. This yet-to-be-revealed content for the first game will be out and playable before the second game is released. Also available is a magnificent collector's Serpent God Edition available exclusively here.

Total War: Warhammer II will be playable on the E3 show floor, which will echo the gameplay reveal that hit during the PC Games Show at E3.

The details for the special edition and Race Pack DLC are below.
