Get ready for a thrilling announcement, Total War fans! The highly anticipated Total War: Medieval 3 is finally in the works, and it's set to revolutionize the franchise. Creative Assembly has revealed that they're diving into early pre-production for this long-awaited title, and it's an exciting step forward for the series.
The Total War franchise has taken us on an epic journey through various historical settings, from the Medieval Europe titles to the Shogun games in Japan and the Three Kingdoms era in China. And now, with Total War: Medieval 3, we're about to embark on another captivating chapter.
But here's where it gets controversial... Total War: Medieval 3 is not just another entry in the series; it's the first time a sub-series (excluding Warhammer) is getting a third installment. This move has sparked curiosity and debate among fans, leaving many wondering what new experiences and challenges await us in this medieval world.
Check out the announcement trailer below to get a glimpse of what's to come:

The developers emphasize that Total War: Medieval 3 is still in its early stages, so don't expect it to hit the shelves anytime soon. However, they're taking a unique approach by revealing the game early on to share behind-the-scenes insights and gather valuable feedback from the community as the development progresses.
One of the most significant aspects of this new project is the upgraded engine, known as Warcore. This enhanced version of the Total War engine aims to provide a solid technological foundation for future games, offering improved physics and more impressive pathfinding. The engine upgrade also opens up exciting possibilities, as Total War games will now be able to launch on Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
While the developers assure us that PC will remain the primary focus, the option to explore console releases is an intriguing development. It raises the question: Will Total War: Medieval 3 be available on Xbox and PlayStation? Only time will tell, but it's an exciting prospect for console gamers.
And this is the part most people miss... Total War: Medieval 3 isn't the only treat Creative Assembly has in store for us. They've also teased the upcoming Lords of the End Times DLC for Total War: Warhammer 3, which will bring the iconic End Times event and Nagash to life in Summer 2026. It's a testament to the franchise's ongoing success and dedication to delivering new and exciting content.
But wait, there's more! Creative Assembly has confirmed that another new game will be announced during the Game Awards 2025, scheduled for Dec. 11, 2025, at 4:30 p.m. PT / 7:30 p.m. ET. The anticipation is building, and fans are eager to know what this mysterious new title could be.
