Total War: Warhammer 40,000 has dropped an incoming broadcast from one of the Emperor’s commanders, and the situation on Minerva seems dire.
However, your commander is quite miffed at his counterpart among the Orks, who have swarmed all over Minerva’s Armageddon subsystem with reckless impunity. It’s time to teach them a lesson in the art of war that they’re not likely to forget. The Imperum of Man is all set to enact a swift and brutal counterattack, and we think Minerva is going to be the start of a very long and bloody campaign.
If you’re wondering what we’re on about, this one marks Creative Assembly’s first foray into the Warhammer universe, and is shaping up to be quite an intriguing offering in the strategy genre. The broadcast/trailer for the game ends with the ominous reminder that there is no peace among the stars, a sign of many battles to come.
A release window would have been a welcome addition to the trailer below, but it seems that it may be closer than expected. At 0:37, the words, “Next Transmission Update Scheduled — 17 Cycles.” If each Cycle is one day, that means an update at the PC Gaming Show, set for June 7th.
With this being the first Total War title to launch on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5, a launch date announcement seems all but a given. Stay tuned for more updates until then.
