Battle The World Of Khorne When Total War: Warhammer 3 Releases Later In The Year

Total War: Warhammer III from Sega and Creative Assembly is the culmination of the Total War: Warhammer trilogy and this time we’re heading to the largest kingdom in the realm of Chaos; Khorne. The realtime strategy game will pit your army against the god of battle, the Blood God: Skulltaker and we’ve got a lovely trailer to tease you with.

Along with the teaser trailer above, we have a new fighter type in the form of Skarbrand and according to the blurb we’ve been given by the team:

Skarbrand was once the greatest of all Khorne’s daemons. Undone by his pride, he was banished from the service of the Blood God and cast from the Realm of Chaos. Forever tormented by his downfall, he wanders the mortal and immortal realms, a restless fury that cannot be stopped.

As the most powerful melee combatant to ever grace the battlefields of Total War: WARHAMMER, Skarbrand has a host of unique abilities which improve his battle prowess. His twin axes, Slaughter & Carnage increase his damage output with every kill made, whilst Bellow of Endless Fury allows him to unleash a devastating fire-breath attack. Beyond these, he also has the passive ability to inflict rampage upon his weak-minded foes, rendering them incapable of retreating from the slaughter he presides over.

If you wanted to make use of Skarbrand, he comes as part of the Khorne playstyle which is more focused on melee and brute force rather than magic, meaning you’ll have to adapt accordingly to ensure your path to victory. Other factions will be announced on the run up to launch.

Before we get to play Total War: Warhammer III it was also announced that an expansion to Total War: Warhammer II is coming before the release of the next game. The Silence & The Fury will feature the long-awaited return of the Beastmen led by Taurox The Brass Bull who will be dueling it out with the Oxyotl The Unseen from the Lizardmen.

Total War: Warhammer III will release on Steam & the Epic Game Store by the end of the year.
