Creative Assembly Announces Agreement with GW for Warhammer

[Lord Cedric]

**NEWS** Just announced by Creative-Assembly (The creators of the Total War series by Sega) that they have entered into a multi-title licensing deal with Games Workshop to create videogames based in the Warhammer universe of fantasy battles!!

Quote: “We’ll be doing the Warhammer universe justice in a way that has never been attempted before. We’re bringing those 25 years of experience and expertise in extremely high-scoring games to bear, delivering a Warhammer experience that videogamers will absolutely love.”

This first Warhammer game joins the eagerly-awaited Total War: Rome II and the untitled Alien IP as one of five projects currently in production at Creative Assembly.

new high-calibre development team has been set up at Creative Assembly’s UK studio to work alongside the existing Total War, Alien IP and Mobile teams on the first Warhammer title in the deal, scheduled to launch from beyond 2013.

For more information, check out the link!!!! I'm so excited. I just hope that they do the Warhammer world justice and don't suck it up!

If they put in Lizardmen I will worship them No warhammer video game so far has had them, but I think Creative Assembly will include all the races- Cant wait!

I was wondering what they would tackle after Rome 2. This sounds like a fantastic choice! Looking forward to it, though be aware that Rome 2 isn't due until mid next year so I don't think we will see Warhammer until mid 2014 at the earliest.

In the mean time, there are a few really cool Warhammer mods for current version of Total War to whet your appetite. And god am I excited for Rome 2!

Though I'll agree with the time frame, all the Warhammer games will be created by a newly appointed staff, so it will be created along-side Rome 2 and some Alien one.

And yes! I'm excited for ALL of this!!
