A brave new Japan — Total War: SHOGUN 2 and A Total War Saga: FALL OF THE SAMURAI updated to 64-bit on macOS

In anticipation of the release of macOS 10.15, two magnificent Total War games have been updated to 64-bit, using Feral’s latest code libraries and Apple’s Metal graphics API for a performance boost across all supported Macs.
