So it has finally been announced last April that there’s an upcoming Total War: Warhammer from Sega. Not just that, but there was a severe lack of footage back during the E3 Announcement teaser. Now they’ve finally posted up a developer walkthrough. But not just any tidbit.. they went the whole 9 yards and gave us a gander of the Battle of Black Fire Pass.
From there on, it was a bit of a waiting game to see what Sega had in store for us. Luckily the time has finally rolled by and we’re able to get a glimpse of what the game could be through this developer walkthrough you can spot on youtube.
If anything, this game will totally do the Games Workshop IP justice, unlike some two-bit developers out there that think they can make a great game in their dreams through free IP licensing… Bleh!
So to the schmuck that though he can pull off warhammer, here’s what can happen when Sega puts their mind and money on it… I’m in a full geeky nerdgasm moment as we view some of the footage available on youtube.
Been a fan of their Shogun franchise for years. Now they’re marrying two of my favorite IP’s into one mega load of Orks, Chaos, the Imperium of Man and their allies will all make bring the culmination from miniatures into the digital form more appropriate for Warhammer.
The footage is gorgeous and we’re still waiting to see what the turn based tactical map would look like.
Next up’s their cinematic announcements and other related juicy tidbits you must have in one go..
This next one’s from their initial E3 teaser earlier this year. More of a recap of their best Total War cinematics and a smattering of in-game footage. I must say though, if Total War: Atilla is any indication, their engine has gone a long long way from the first Shogun game.
So just check back for more news on this great Total War title. We’ll be putting up a steam link the moment we spot it.
