Press Release
Feral Interactive today
announced that the next installment of the critically acclaimed Total
War series to be launched on the Mac will be Empire: Total War™Gold
Edition. Developed by The Creative Assembly and published by SEGA®
for Windows, the game will be released in the spring of this year.
Empire: Total War Gold
Edition places the series’ prized elements of real-time tactics and
turn-based strategy against the turbulent backdrop of the 18th
century. Exploring grand themes such as the Industrial Revolution,
America's struggle for independence, the race to control Asian trade
routes, and the globalization of war on land and sea, the game
charges players with the fortunes of a nation and challenges them to
establish it as the world’s dominant power.
Players command entire
fleets in real-time naval combat amid dynamic water and weather
effects, where mastery of their vessels makes the difference between
glorious victory and humiliating defeat. Ground warfare has also
changed, with the arrival of gunpowder, muskets and accurate
artillery. To triumph in this radically different environment,
players must learn new formations and master new tactics.
The Mac version of
Empire: Total War Gold Edition comprises the base game Empire: Total
War and all the game updates, improvements and downloadable content,
including The Warpath Campaign, where players take command of one of
five new Native American factions, defending their lands from
invaders. It also includes four unit packs, the Special Forces Units
and the Elite Units of the East, West and America.
“Empire: Total War
Gold Edition draws on rich historical source material to create a
game with vast scope and astonishing depth,” said David Stephen,
Managing Director of Feral Interactive
