We caught up with lead designer Todor Nikolov to find out more about the project at Gamescom 2019. This mod revises the game completely, from the campaign to the battles, to be as true to the original as possible, while changing the gameplay to what it should have been, in the opinion of a 20+ year Total War veteran. Troy is the second Total War Saga title that Creative Assembly has developed, following 2018's Thrones of Britannia.

“Not only does this mean that we can bring the tales and legends of Troy to a wide audience through Epic’s massive platform, but it also means new players will get to try Total War for the first time, experiencing the unique gameplay that the series is famous for.” It's a hugely exciting thing for us to be able to do for our players,” Sega Europe's chief studio officer Tim Heaton ( pictured) said. “Thanks to Epic, we're able to offer a Total War title for free on its launch day. Homer’s Iliad is rich with myth, legends, gods and monsters. Inspired by Homer’s Iliad, TROY will let you forge a heroic legacy in the late Bronze Age, the furthest back in time the Total War franchise has ever travelled. The game will also be available entirely free of charge for its first 24 hours, with those who download it keeping the title. A Total War Saga: TROY will reconstruct one of the greatest stories ever told. It will launch on Steam and other storefronts in 2021. A Total War Saga: Troy will be exclusive to the Epic Games Store for its first year on PC.Ĭreative Assembly has signed a deal with the Fortnite maker giving it 12 months starting from its launch date of August 13th.
