The Creative Assembly’s Total War: Warhammer is already a roaring successor. According to publisher Sega, the strategy title which meshes Total War‘s mechanics with the Warhammer fantasy universe has sold more than 500,000 units since launching on May 24th. This makes it the fastest-selling Total War title on Steam ever according to Sega.

Creative Assembly studio director Tim Heaton also noted that the game was a “runaway commercial success” and that it “regularly” hit close to 100,000 concurrent players. Today’s peak is fairly close with 98,913 players overall and 85,414 players currently online, making Total War: Warhammer the third played game on Steam right now.

If you’re going to pick up Total War: Warhammer, you’d best do it before May 31st if you want to acquire the Chaos Warriors Race Pack for free. It features more units, more mounts and three new Legendary Lords.
