“We know we’re going to be adding loads of new content over the course of time for you to enjoy, so expect years worth of fantastic experiences ahead. “ is going to be an ever-evolving, ever-changing campaign,” says game director Richard Aldridge. I don’t see this changing, but that isn’t to say other changes to the campaigns and maps won’t occur. I enjoyed it for a few campaigns, but Immortal Empires’ appeal is that it isn’t like the more experimental Realm of Chaos campaign-it’s a more traditional conquest-focused deal. Also, the Realm of Chaos proved to be pretty divisive. It’s such a specific system, and one tied to a specific story, that it would be an awkward fit for Immortal Empires. The whole point of the system was this race to defeat daemon princes in survival battles, traversing maps with no construction or conquest. We won’t, for instance, be visiting the Realm of Chaos seen in the main Warhammer 3 campaign. The release date came at the end of the Q&A, but there are some noteworthy nuggets in the rest of the video. Immortal Empires, then, unites the whole trilogy in one absurdly large world war.

If you’re not au fait with Immortal Empires, it’s the sort-of-sequel to Mortal Empires, a campaign that launched with Warhammer 2 and combined the factions and maps from the first two games. We’ve known since last month that it would be appearing in August (opens in new tab), and in a developer Q&A published today Creative Assembly finally gave us the specific date: August 23. Total War: Warhammer 3’s gargantuan Immortal Empires campaign is five weeks away.
