Total War: Attila, the next instalment in the Total War strategy game series, will launch on PC and Mac in 2015, Creative Assembly has announced.
Attila sends players back to 395 AD, a time of apocalyptic turmoil at the dawn of the Dark Ages. In the great steppes of Scythia, a vast and terrifying force gathers, led by a warrior king whose thirst for conquest is utterly unequalled.
The game introduces new gameplay mechanics which promise to improve numerous core turn-based and real-time Total War systems, and is being developed using the Total War: Rome 2.
“With Total War: Attila we will create a Total War game that will challenge and enthral fans of the series,” said project lead Janos Gaspar.
“We’re reintroducing some features that fans have been asking for, such as family trees and skill trees, and improving many of the core aspects of Total War we know are important to them. But to really bring the period to life, we’re building on these foundations with many new strategic features for them to consider, such as advanced street-fighting, civilians, complete settlement destruction and dynamic fire that can rage across a city as armies clash. We want to push players to the limits of their skill to survive against the odds, and to love every minute of it.”
Chris got to have a go on the game earlier this month, and came away with plenty of new info and the first gameplay footage.
