Total War: Empire\'s New World Expansion is out now with a new start date and factions

Total War: Empire’s A New World expansion is now live
Take on the Late Start campaign and lead 44 new factions
Fight back against European colonization in the beloved A New World campaign

In Total War: Empire, you lead one of the 18th century’s great empires as they seek to colonize and exploit the globe, all while confronting ancient rivals on their borders. This standout entry in the Total War series has just received a brand-new mobile expansion with A New World!

The appeal of A New World lies in its two core features. First, it introduces 44 brand-new playable factions from around the world. Many are lesser-known powers, but each holds the potential to reshape history by rising as a new global force.

Yet the true highlight is the new Late Start campaign. Fed up with grinding through early tech trees? Craving the intense, proto-Napoleonic line battles? The Late Start campaign delivers—old empires crumble, and new ones rise from the ashes.

Cry Havoc

The true heart of A New World, however, is the fan-favorite Warpath campaign. Here, you step into the boots of Native American tribes as they resist European colonization.

Without reliable supply lines, industrial infrastructure, or advanced technology, you must adapt slowly—harnessing ambush tactics and sheer numbers to wear down your enemies. It’s a demanding, immersive challenge for any Total War veteran, and worth every penny on its own. Paired with all the additional content, it’s an unbeatable deal.
