A brave new Japan - Total War™: SHOGUN 2 - Fall of the Samurai coming to Mac

It is 1864, and Japan is hurtling into the modern age, a time of rapid industrialization, urgent political reform and increasing western influence. As the leader of a clan loyal to either the isolationist Imperial forces or the more outward-looking shogunate, the nation’s future is yours to shape.

Total War: SHOGUN 2 – Fall of the Samurai, coming to the Mac this autumn, is a masterful combination of real-time battle tactics and turn-based campaign strategy that explores the clash of medieval weaponry and mechanized warfare in mid 19th century Japan.

Though the pace of change is fast, the path is long and careful preparation is required. Begin your journey by studying the trailer at the Total War: SHOGUN 2 – Fall of the Samurai holding page.

Total War: SHOGUN 2 – Fall of the Samurai is a Creative Assembly game, developed and published for the Mac by Feral Interactive.

Hotseats & Halberds Update for Total War: MEDIEVAL II Out Now!

EMPIRE may be the most recent entry in the Total War series to have landed on mobile, but that doesn’t mean Total War: MEDIEVAL II should be forgotten. On the contrary, Feral’s armourers have been toiling at the forge, hammering out a comprehensive patch, and today we’re excited to release the Hotseats & Halberds Update!

On the Hotseat side of today’s patch, the asynchronous multiplayer of desktop Kingdoms makes a triumphant return in a new and improved form. Owners of Kingdoms on mobile can now play hotseat mode on the Kingdoms campaigns, and the Grand Campaign of the base game for the very first time!

And, it’s not just Halberds that are feeling the love… The other half of the update introduces a massive assortment of balance updates to different units — most notably, a new Cohesion mechanic ensuring that Pikemen formations perform more reliably.

A full breakdown of the Hotseats & Halberds can be found on our blog, as well as a mammoth list of all the changes. But, if you’ve already read enough, charge to the app store of your choice and update today!
