The final Lord Pack for Total War: Warhammer II is on its way, where you’ll join the stealthy Lizardmen Chameleon, Oxyotl, and the rampaging Brass Bull, Taurox, as they race to rend or repair a great scar of Chaos across the Old World.

Alongside Taurox, a powerful combat hero hefting two monstrous axes, comes a top-to-bottom reimagining of the entire Beastmen faction. Sweeping changes to horde gameplay will have the Beastmen carving their name into the landscape of the Warhammer world more than ever, marking territory and earning progressive bonuses to provide a satisfying and lasting campaign experience.

Meanwhile, Oxyotl’s time in the northern wastes taught the Chameleon that the fight against Chaos requires a personal touch – all over the world. By extensively preparing and travelling to far-off Lizardmen Sanctums hidden throughout the world, Oxyotl can fight a dynamic war against the forces of Chaos wherever they spring up.

The Silence and The Fury DLC is coming in July – it’s currently available to pre-order – and you can pick up Total War: Warhammer and Total War: Warhammer II now on Steam.

Total War: Warhammer III

Hot on the heels of the second game’s final DLC comes the third instalment in this award-winning series. As you will have already seen from the incredible launch trailer and gameplay videos, Kislev is set to face off against the four Chaos Gods as the Old World descends further towards calamity. We know that Katarina, the Ice Queen, will be commanding the faithful of Ursun in battle, but who else is putting their general’s cap on?

That’s right, Skarbrand is here to harvest a frankly ludicrous number of skulls for his master, Khorne. As one of his god’s most powerful daemons, and a living embodiment of bloodlust and carnage, Skarbrand commands the daemonic host of Khorne with absolute authority and sends his armies on vicious raids into the Warhammer world.

re-order Total War: Warhammer III now on Steam and the Epic Games Store, and keep an eye on the Total War social media channels for a greater look at Khorne’s full roster soon.

You won’t just be needlessly flexing your divine powers either, as you’ll embark on a full story campaign in the depths of Shyish, the Realm of Death, in the dark times following the Necroquake. In the meantime, you can find out more and join the closed beta test right now at the Tempestfall Discord channel, and don’t forget to keep an eye out for the game’s release on Steam VR and Oculus Quest this Summer.
