Free High Tide Update for Total War: PHARAOH Out Now on Steam — Adds Two New Factions

The free High Tide update is now available for Total War: PHARAOH, bringing The Sea Peoples culture with two new factions seeking to ride the coming storm.

The ruthless Sherden strive only to destroy and sacrifice. Led by Iolaos, they strike fear into other empires as they burn and plunder their way across the ancient lands.

The Peleset are on the warpath to establish a new homeland, coming ashore with their hulking leader Walwetes and willing to stand against Egypt to carve a kingdom for themselves.

Both factions utilise a new horde style of gameplay, with 37 new units available to aid their conquest. A full breakdown of all new content is available via the Total War Blog.

The High Tide update is free to all owners of Total War: PHARAOH on macOS, and will be downloaded the next time you launch Steam. If you’ve yet to embark on your Bronze Age campaign, PHARAOH is available for the new, value price of $39.99 / £29.99 / €39.99 here.

Kislev Endures — Total War: WARHAMMER III Update 6.1 Out Now on macOS and Linux

We hope you packed your warm gauntlets. Total War: WARHAMMER III’s latest update returns to the frozen lands of Kislev to offer a fresh take on the Ice Queen’s dominion.

From sweeping updates to the faction’s technology tree to a complete overhaul of the Supporter race between the Ice Court and the Grand Orthodoxy — this is a Tzardom transformed. Also included is an update to the Devotion system which replaces the local Control mechanic, and a radical new take on the Ataman system for Kislev.

And the Changer of Ways is on the receiving end of some changes of his own, with Tzeentch’s Fragments of Sorcery system receiving a visual and mechanical overhaul.

Also included are two brand new units: The Nan-Gau Grenadiers for Cathay and Gnoblar Flingers for the Ogre Kingdoms, rounding out a bold update to many of the base game’s original factions.
