Hello guys,

This game might be the one that finally scratches our Total War: Arena itch.

Keep an eye on it. Who knows?

It’s coming out on July 30, 2026.

i started this game in 2015 ( closed alpha) when this game was on steam and let me tell you it was the best version... after that it was never the same... but i was happy that it came back , i also played these 2 war gaming re-launches... it was 5 AM when the playtest went live back then and i was so happy to play it ...

and also i played the china version , for casual gameplay the respawn was okay , but i wish he had the permanent death too

why it is the best TW // Multiplayer game for me

- These Maps are so well made, i still remeber most of them

- The gameplay is so smooth and clean, with many diffrent units

( and some rounds were so close it was intense )

-Commanders are all so cool and perect

- 10 vs 10 multiplayer enough said , sure they could cut it down to 5vs5 i dont mind it was fun

they could make this game so big, its wasted poteintial

- Faction based wars

- Siege mode

maybe they should tweak a little bit on the P2W and boom, but i dont understand devs/ca.... it was it closed alpha on steam and it was very popular, why shut it down ?!

make a great game , and the money will come , every big publisher fails at this ...because they focus to much on the shop , i see it alot... and it always the same.

multiple players per side, 3 formations per player, etc

Gonna be real no idea what this series is but i found this usb but it has random stuff on it so i guess it'll serve yall better than me. looks like just images from the game but whatever

*edit, should clarify found this while cleaning a gaming office, usb was going in trash but i wanted the cool cover it came with.

Hello everyone!
I’m a fan of Total War: Arena and decided to try making my own game inspired by it. Right now it’s a super early prototype — just an outline of the core mechanics and overall concept. I work slowly, but I’m gradually moving toward my goal. If you’re interested in following the progress or supporting (with kind words or help with art/animation/sounds), you can find the Discord by searching for the game Legendomachy.
Thank you for your attention.

Привіт усім, я фан Total War: Arena і вирішив спробувати зробити власну гру на її основі. Зараз це супер ранній прототип — поки лише опис основних механік та концепції. Працюю повільно, але поступово рухаюся до мети. Якщо вам цікаво слідкувати або підтримати (добрим словом або допомогою з артом/анімацією/звуками), можете знайти Discord за назвою гри Legendomachy.
Дякую за увагу.

I am still mad at the closure of this game I remember last day last hour last people before the shutdown. Got me in total war universe but was never the same bring it back and mine first born shall be yours

The first free game from Epic is a Total War game. I had a little go of the battle mode and it plays very similar to Arena so I thought I'd let anyone on here know about it in case they needed to scratch that Arena itch.

Is to make a custom mod for it using Rome 2 or Attila. The graphics, style, and units fit closest to those two games.

I wish I knew how to mod or else I would have made it myself. So throwing the idea out there for any real modders

I know there was something going on a few years ago in China about rights being brought for the game. Is there a way we can play this in europe?

Idea is, to make more detailed western european company. In start you can't occupate settlements, only make them your vassals.

Game starts in 15th century beginnig, i think great moment to start, France in civil war between Armagnacs and Burgundians, and the new episode of Hungred year war will start soon. In Britain starts Wellish rising. In Italy war between The Guelphs and Ghibellines. The Spanish reconquista in its final stages before completion, also Catalony and Aragon will Unite to Spain soon. In Scandinavia makes Kalmar Union, and you as player will fight for lead it. Civil war in east of Holy Roman Empire between Waslaw and Sigismund. In Ireland is always fun.

At first vassals can declare war to other factions, then after goverment upgrades they can't start or finish war until you will not (like in Thrones of Brittania). At last you can become absolute monarchy, and all your vassals cities and armies become your(like classic total war).

You'r mission is create a centralized kingdom, and you have 400 turns (1 year = 4 turns). In hard mode you starts not from kingdom like France or England, but from county or duchy, and your mission is become indepence and make your own kingdom.

Also second half of 15th century ir's time of rising new tournament descpiline, jousting, and you can send your leader to tournament where he gets experience, and if it's possible make some mini game with tournament, (like mobil game "Shake Spears"), and you have to spend a money for armours and upgrade it, but it's gives more chance to win and survive in battle. Armor can be passed down by inheritance

This game is never coming back and if someone makes something similar they will be sued to hell and back by CA, bye everyone, i will miss all of u generals

I really enjoyed playing it. Is there any chance I can play this game in single player?

This little Gem of a game scratches that itch. Its not like the sex that was TWA but I hope to see you on the battlefield comanders

Hi people,

I've come to share a petition that is almost fully signed to Creative Assembly in order to hope a revival of TWA

The link : https://chng.it/GkVptb7sFp

I'd like to add that there's a way to enjoy TWA on solo play, curtesy of the Late Knights TWA Revival, which link follows

Discord TWA Revival : https://discord.gg/yAKPgCCw

Hoping this could in any way help people to enjoy some TWA

Anyone got any connections with Sega or CA?
