Creative Assembly and SEGA have today taken the lid off the first entry in their newly established Total War Saga spin-off series entitled Thrones of Britannia with a trailer and some initial information of what to expect.
The game will take place in the British Isles around 878AD, just after the invasion of The Great Heathen Army and will feature an all new ‘highly detailed’ campaign map along with ten new playable factions and new mechanics. While all the factions are yet to be revealed so far CA confirm that Viking settlers, Anglo-Saxons and ‘certain Gaelic clans’ will be among them.
There’s no price or date for the game outside of a vague 2018 window at present, but the first gameplay footage is ‘likely’ the time you’ll see gameplay footage. It’ll release both digitally and in boxed form in some territories, although only on Windows at present.
More information can be found on the Total War blog.
