Sega announced today that Total War: Rome 2 will release on September 3, 2013, on both physical and digital formats. With a release date set, pre-orders are open for business, and Sega announced some pre-order bonuses and a Collector's Edition too.
Sega teased a little of Total War: Rome II's Battle of the Teutoburg Forest mission in February, and today came back with a solid 10 minutes of narrated actual gameplay. It's an ambush rather than a straight-up army vs. army battle, so come watch doggies and horsies chasing the Romans.
Total War: Rome 2 likes to show off big battles, and the newest trailer shows off one of the most decisive battles of the Roman era. The Battle of the Teutoburg Forest in Germania in 9AD saw more than 15,000 Roman troops routed by Germanic tribes led by a former vassal of Rome.
Do you have a thirst for violence and/or historical accuracy? You're in luck! Today, The Creative Assembly debuted a new cinematic "gameplay" trailer for Total War: Rome 2, showing a fierce battle in Carthage.
The trailer takes place in 146 BC, when Scipio Aemilianus is sent to Rome to break a siege that has been going on for three years. One thing leads to another, and before you know it the battle is raging. The game is due in 2013, or MMXIII for you purists.
Having announced the long-awaited sequel Total War: Rome II yesterday, publisher Sega today shared the first trailer for The Creative Assembly's Roman strategy-o-rama. The live-action affair shows the sort of back-stabbing and throat-slitting political manoeuvres we should expect when we return to the Imperium Romanum on PC in 2013.
For Total War fans, it was nice to see the series return to its roots in the Shogun era. They liked the colonial era-themed Empire Total War as well. But every new Total War announcement has been consistently met with the same refrain: When is the series going back to Rome?
Sega communications manager Al Bickham laughs: "They would say, 'Yeah, yeah, that's great, but where's Rome 2? Rome was enormously popular. It probably has a lot to do with how strong it is in the popular imagination. The swords and sandals fighting, the gladiators, and everything else."
The Creative Assembly has been to many different eras and locations in its Total War series. From medieval times to Napolean to feudal Japan, the series has run the gamut. But the popular franchise is now returning to arguably its most popular venue, Rome.
