To celebrate Total War: Warhammer 3’s first anniversary, developers Creative Assembly are making the Immortal Empires campaign free to all owners of the Warhammer 3 base game. Previously, you needed to own all three Total War: Warhammer games to play Immortal Empires, since it compiles campaign maps, war units, and Legendary Lords from across the strategy trilogy. Now, you’ll just need to own Warhammer 3 for access to the campaign.

If you only own Warhammer 3, you’ll have access to the base races and lords that were available at launch, like the Daemons of Chaos. Purchasing the other Total War games or DLC will grant you access to their corresponding races. Buying the first Total War: Warhammer, for example, nets you with the Greenskins, Dwarfs, and more, and DLC works in much the same way.

Want to play as the Vampire Coast? Well, you’ll need to buy Warhammer 2’s Curse Of The Vampire Coast add-on. It should be noted that you don’t need the base game to buy a DLC and gain access to a corresponding race - Vampire Coast is playable without owning the Warhammer 2, for instance. If you want a comprehensive list of how to access every race, check out Total War’s FAQ page and scroll to find the Ownership Guide.

Creative Assembly also released a new trailer for Immortal Empires, teasing some
