It was announced today that Empire Divided, a new campaign pack for Total War: ROME II, as well as the Power and Politics Patch, is due out for release on November 30, 2017.
It’s the crisis of the third century. A string of inept emperors and usurpers vying for power has torn the Roman Empire into three factions, and with barbarians and eastern Empires ready to exploit the chaos, it’s time to do-or-die. Players will be able to choose whether to reunite the empire or tear it down in this new, grand-scale campaign pack. It’ll have ten different playable factions, new victory conditions, and new campaign features such as plagues, cults and banditry. There’s also a big focus on telling the stories of the characters and powers involved in this rich and fascinating period, with plenty of in depth lore to keep you hooked.
Also joining Empire Divided on November 30 is the free Power & Politics patch update, which overhauls ROME II’s political system to create a more subtle and intriguing experience with farther-reaching consequences. Full details on Empire Divided, plus info on how you can gain entry to the Power & Politics open beta, can be found here, and you can preorder the expansion through Steam, prior to its release on November 30. 2017.
