The release of Total War: Rome II is just around the corner, and Sega has released details of planned paid-for DLC coming to the game.

Creative Assembly's James Russell said: "Rome II will be the biggest game we've ever released, in terms of scope, gameplay features and sheer weight of content, but even then we're just scratching the surface of the Roman period, an era so rich in diversity that it's easy to foresee releasing relevant content for years after Rome II has shipped."

As well as paid-for DLC, there will be free content heading to the game to: "As with Shogun 2, we will continually improve the game's compatibility, optimisation and integral features such as AI and gameplay balancing post-release, and plan to add to that with new control schemes and additional free formats on other operating systems," continued Russell.

"We are also very proud of how Shogun 2 is our most moddable Total War to date with over 500 user-made mods on Steam Workshop alone. We hope to support Rome II in a similar fashion."

"In addition to free content, gamers can expect to see Culture Packs that add more playable factions and unique units, Feature Packs that add gameplay or wide-ranging aesthetic changes, and Campaign Packs that add entirely new story-based campaign expansions."

Total War: Rome II is due out on September 3 on PC. Those who pre-order the game will receive the Greek States Culture Pack. Below you can see a couple of new trailers for the game (one an unboxing, the other a let's play).
