What is Total War: WARHAMMER III?

Set in the Warhammer world, this grand strategy game combines turn-based empire management with real-time tactical battles. You raise armies from seven races, expand your territory, and command hundreds of units as a dying god’s roar opens a portal to the Realm of Chaos.

For you if...

+you enjoy alternating empire management and large tactical battles
+you want varied fantasy factions, monsters, and artillery
+you want co-op campaigns or competitive online battles

Not for you if...

−you want direct action instead of commanding armies
−you prefer grounded historical warfare over dark fantasy
−you want strategy without real-time tactical battles

What players say

72% of 148,739 reviews are positive · 84% of 1,338 in the last 30 days

Players praise the varied factions and playstyles, large battles, and replayable campaign sandbox. The dominant complaint is the extensive, expensive DLC needed to unlock many factions and lords; players also report longstanding bugs, passive campaign AI, and a lack of polish.
