Total War: Warhammer 2 is getting pirate-y DLC featuring giant enemy crabs next month
Vampire Coast'
Command a legion of zombie pirates and giant crab monsters
By Cohen Coberly,
If you've been a fan of Creative Assembly's Total War franchise for as
long as I have, the Warhammer games probably came as a bit of a
surprise. CA's work typically focused on historical accuracy, taking
players through time periods like the Middle Ages, the Viking age, and
much more.
The Total War: Warhammer games, on the other hand, threw a curveball at
long-time series fans. The games were set in fantasy worlds, filled with
magic, monsters, and a wide variety of playable races pulled from the
original Warhammer tabletop games created by Games Workshop.
For the unaware, the Total War franchise is a PC-exclusive set of
strategy games that focus on real-time, army-based tactical battles.
Anyway, CA's latest Warhammer game, Total War: Warhammer 2, is still
being supported by the company, and it just got another "campaign pack"
DLC announcement, dubbed the "Curse of the Vampire Coast" (CotVC).
In the Warhammer games, paid DLC typically consists of an entirely new
faction, complete with its own "legendary lords" (powerful warriors and
leaders from Warhammer lore) and unit roster. As usual, these lords and
units are being pulled directly from the original Warhammer Fantasy
Battles tabletop game - the faction will be led by the vampire dread
pirate Luthor Harkon, and he has some pretty unique units under his
command.
The CotVC trailer shows us giant crab monsters, zombie buccaneers
equipped with massive hand cannons, and what appears to be some sort of
magical construct made from old ship parts. Furthermore, the DLC's
description says it will come with unique upgradeable ships for each of
the faction's legendary lords, and even a new magical spellbook, the
"Lore of the Deep."
If you happen to be a Total War: Warhammer 2 player yourself, you can
pre-order the CotVC DLC right now via Steam for $17.09, which is 10
percent off its suggested retail price of $18.99. The expansion pack
will launch on November 8, in roughly four weeks.
