Rise of the Tomb Kings DLC for Total War 2 Coming January 23

Warhammer: Total War 2 is getting a new DLC soon on January 23, 2018. Titled ‘Rise of the Tomb Kings’, the DLC brings in Legendary Lords, quest chains, and more. Rise of the Tomb Kings fits with the game’s Eye of the Vortex campaign as well as Mortal Empires. Unlike other DLCs, this one does not include any supplementary story campaign. This change is after taking in feedback from fans, so Creative Assembly is focusing on quest chains and lore-friendly skills, traits, and gear instead.

Users can pre-order the DLC now on Steam which is actually 10% less than the normal £14 price. This promotion will only last until the launch of the DLC on January 23rd.
