Total War: Rome II From Sega Coming Next Year

The Creative Assembly, creator of the Total War series of PC strategy games, is currently developing Total War: Rome II for PC, says SEGA.

Total War: Rome II will sink players into the dangerous political machinations of Rome’s senate, while asking them to struggle with family dilemmas and question the loyalty of ‘friends’ and allies. Leading the greatest army ever seen into battle will be just one challenge players will face at the head of the world’s first superpower.

Rob Bartholomew (Brand Director, SEGA): There’s been a multi-generational leap in technology since the original game and we are ready to set another benchmark in gaming.

Total War: Rome II is due for release in 2013.
