Total War: Three Kingdoms to be released on STEAM

Total War: THREE KINGDOMS is the first in the multi-award-winning strategy video game series to recreate the epic conflicts of ancient China. With an exciting turn-based campaign blending empire-building, statecraft and conquest against a backdrop of stunning real-time battles, Total War: THREE KINGDOMS takes the series in a new direction through an age of heroes and legends.

China in the year 190

Welcome to the dawn of a new era of legendary conquest.

These magnificent but divided lands are crying out for a new emperor and a new way of life. Unite China, forge the most powerful of dynasties and build a legacy that will endure through the ages.

Choose from 12 legendary warlords and set out to conquer the kingdom. Recruit heroic characters to help your cause by dominating your enemies in military, technological, political and economic fields.

Will you forge solid friendships and fraternal alliances? Will you win the respect of your many enemies? Or will you opt for acts of treachery, fomenting cruel betrayals and mastering the art of large-scale political intrigue?

Your legend is yet to be written, but one thing is certain: glorious conquests await you.

ANCIENT CHINA RECREATED

Discover the breathtakingly beautiful China of the Three Kingdoms. Fight your way through lush subtropical environments, arid deserts and snow-capped mountains. Marvel at mythical landmarks such as the Great Wall of China and the Yangtze River. Travel to the four corners of China to achieve your goal of restoring harmony to its beleaguered landscapes.

CHINA'S GREATEST LEGENDS

Forge a new empire by embodying one of the twelve warlords drawn from the epic and famous Chinese historical work: The Three Kingdoms. From peerless commander to implacable warrior to eminent statesman, these characters all offer a unique way of playing and very distinct objectives. Recruit epic heroes to command your armies, rule your provinces and develop your growing empire. The characters are at the heart of the game, and it is they who will decide the future of China.

GUANXI SYSTEM

Based on "Guanxi", the Chinese concept of dynamic interpersonal relationships, Total War: THREE KINGDOMS uses a modified approach to character management. The iconic heroes appear larger than life, and it's their relationships that will shape the future of ancient China. All these characters are animated in a unique way: they each have their own personalities and motivations, as well as their own tastes and colours. They also form their own relationships with each other: whether benevolent or hostile, they will determine the course of your story.

ARTISTIC PURITY

With its meticulous graphics and splendid Wushu combat, THREE KINGDOMS embodies the art of war. The superb user interface, vivid panoramas and authentic art direction inspired by Chinese culture make this reinvention of ancient China a true visual delight.

REAL-TIME AND TURN-BASED IN HARMONY

The turn-based campaign and battles of Total War: THREE KINGDOMS are more connected than ever. Actions taken during battles have greater consequences: they affect the relationships you have with your heroes, as well as the friendships and rivalries that will develop with other characters. In a world where having powerful allies is the key to success, this is a whole new aspect to take into account if you want to win.
