TOTAL WAR: WARHAMMER 40,000 announced

Creative Assembly and Games Workshop have confirmed their highly lucrative alliance will continue into the grim darkness of the far future. Total War: Warhammer 40,000 is definitely a thing.

The game will see war raging unchecked across at least a star system, and possibly the whole galaxy, as multiple 40K factions clash in battle. Space Marines, Imperial Guard and Orks appear in the trailer, with Eldar in the promotional art, and more factions are likely to join the fray, if not in the initial release than certainly in the several thousand DLC that will follow. Armoured vehicles, aircraft and orbital bombardments will change up the standard Total War experience.

A significant change will be that the game with launch on PlayStation 5 and XBox Series X/S as well as PC. It's assumed that the game will target a 2026 release date but that's not confirmed so far.

Creative Assembly confirmed last week that Total War: Medieval III is also in early development.
