Medieval II: Total War announced
The Next Total War Game is Announced!
CA have officially announced the next game in the Total War series, Medieval II: Total War. Featuring an extensive campaign covering Europe and parts of the New World, it also has lots of graphics goodies that will make our jaws drop and our computers explode.
A vastly enhanced version of the Total War engine vividly portrays the pure bloodlust of Medieval warfare with massive battles of more than 10,000 troops splayed across new graphically rich environments. For the first time in the Total War series each troop is an individual, garbed with the rich heraldic colours and glinting arms and armour of the period.
On the battlefield they’ll survey their surroundings for threats and incoming opponents and react accordingly. When engaged they’ll string together a series of devastating moves as Medieval 2’s new combat animation brings the conflict to life like never before. Total War has never been so ferocious or realistic.
They have also announced the factions:
England, France, Scotland, Holy Roman Empire, Denmark, Spain, Portugal, Milan, Venice, Papal States, Sicily, Poland, Russia, Hungary, Byzantium, The Turks, Egypt, The Moors, The Mongols, The Tumurids, The Aztecs.
You can read the full article and see screenshots and more at their website. Now join us in celebration, and let's hope it lives up to the Total War name!
