Total War Saga: Troy, by Creative Assembly, had a rather original release. Indeed, it was first available on the Epic Games Store in August 2020, free for almost a year. It then went on sale on Steam in 2021, much later…
Discovering the Bronze Age and the Age of Heroes!
As its name suggests, the game tackles the mythical period of the Trojan War and the Iliad. Hero combat (in duel format), large land and sea battles, and economic development are all there!
On the program?
**Fight to save or conquer the kingdom of Troy by embodying one of the eight mythical heroes, including the famous warrior Achilles, the noble protector Hector, the rebellious prince Paris and the vengeful king Menelaus.
In the middle of a battle, it is possible to call upon mythical units inspired by Greek mythology creatures, such as the Minotaur, the Cyclops, the Giants and the Centaurs.
So, a soft spot for the Greek camp, or rather the urge to save the legendary city of Troy?
DLC Side
As always with Total War, the game received many paid DLCs:
- Amazons released in September 2020
- Blood & Glory released in October 2020
- Ajax & Diomedes released in January 2021
- Rhesus & Memnon released in December 2021
Note that two free mini-DLCs are also available:
- Artemis Religion Pack released in October 2020
- Hephaestus Pack released in January 2021
The economy underneath all this stays true to the Total War formula: taxes, trade and province development fund your armies, while god-favored heroes can turn the tide of a whole campaign with a single duel victory.
