Next week a new book will be released featuring art from the Total War series. The Art of Total War is coming out on January 20th in US, but someone in Australia seems to have gotten a very early copy. And there was a very interesting passage, he shared with us:
"Multiplayer has never been Total War's strong point in the past, and that's something we're looking to radically change with Total War: Arena. For most strategy games, multiplayer is almost all of the experience or; at the very least, a sizeable chunk of it. We're also experimenting with this in the mobile space, with Total War: Kingdom, and taking the series to a fantasy setting with Total War: Warhammer."
It has been known that The Creative Assembly have been at work on a Warhammer fantasy title for some time now as the partnership between Sega and Games Workshop was announced back in December 2012. However, that the new game will be part of the Total War series is news and certainly piques our interest.
It appears a foregone conclusion that Sega will announce Total War: Warhammer soon as the book is coming out next week.
