Rise of the Tomb Kings Campaign Pack DLC brings the Tomb Kings Race to WARHAMMER II.

Command one of five imperious Races from Warhammer Fantasy Battles, and mount a campaign of conquest to save or destroy the New World of WARHAMMER II.

The Tomb Kings were once humans from the mighty empire of Nehekhara. Millennia ago, Nehekhara was razed by the Great Necromancer Nagash, who eliminated its citizens in a single night then awakened their mummified corpses to fight in his undead army. Nehekhara is now known as the Land of the Dead.

Death has no dominion over the Tomb Kings. They wage war with terrifying skeleton armies, winged Carrion, Dire Wolves, Skull Catapults, and animated statues of Sphinxes, Gods and Scorpions.

There are four subfactions of Tomb Kings, each led by a different Legendary Lord with their own quests and abilities.

  • Khemri — led by Settra the Imperishable, the king of all Tomb Kings
  • Court of Lybaras — led by High Queen Khalida, a warrior with poison attacks
  • Exiles of Nehek — led by Grand Hierophant Khatep, a wise old Liche Priest
  • Followers of Nagash — led by Arkhan the Black, Nagash's lieutenant

Total War: WARHAMMER II brings its legions of Lizardmen, Dark Elves, High Elves, Skaven and Tomb Kings to macOS and Linux later this year.

It’s the Eye of the Tigress: Bhashiva — Character Pack Out Now for Total War: WARHAMMER III on macOS and Linux

A new challenger approaches the Old World’s Maelstrom of conflict and chaos!

The Bhashiva Character Pack introduces a new Legendary Lord to the Grand Cathay. The Tiger Warriors are a proud, ancient martial culture, and sworn allies of the Dragon Lords of Cathay.

Specialised in slaying fearsome single-entity beasts, she is an asset to any faction who win her loyalty.

Update to 8.0 today, and head to the Steam Store to add the Bhashiva Character Pack to your collection for $4.99 / £3.99 / 4,99 €.
