For the first time in nearly 80 years, the land is in a fragile state of peace. Chastened – but not yet broken – the Norse warlords have settled across Britain. The year is 878 AD, the embattled English king Alfred the Great has mounted a heroic defence at the battle of Edington, and blunted the Viking invasion. Those coming from Total Warhammer might be disappointed that the most novel thing on offer here is units of ferocious war dogs, but it's still satisfying to watch a charge of pugilistic puppers who’ve just decided the opposing frontline have biscuits in their pockets.About This Game A Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia West Seaxe has some seriously nasty late game cavalry, for example, and a few units of Welsh archers with flaming arrows will make short work of an approaching siege tower. "Faction-specific units are few, so personality comes from unit specialities. It'll hit Windows first, with Mac and Linux versions to follow "shortly after." Still, that's 5.8GB you won't need to download on Thursday.Ī 10% pre-order discount makes Thrones Of Britannia £27/€36/$36 on Steam right now but OBVIOUSLY don't pre-order even though people OBVIOUSLY are. I don't know how substantial the preload lump is the system requirements say ATWSTOB needs 30GB of free hard drive space, but those always include a nice safety margin. If you've pre-ordered the game all the kids are calling ATWSTOB, as of four minutes ago you can download 5.8GB of it in advance - though not play until it's actually out, obvs. So hey, you cheeky pre-orderers: know that you can now pre-load Thrones Of Britannia on Steam ahead of its Thursday launch. Ah but sure, you know what's coming: it's another Total War, and you can already read Nic Rueben's Total War Saga: Thrones Of Britannia review for our official word on it.
"Never pre-order," we say, then youse go and pre-order A Total War Saga: Thrones Of Britannia right into the Steam top ten.
