Instead, Immortal Empires will be available at launch for everyone. You won't have to opt-in or sign up for something to play it. Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires will feature the beta tag until the developers feel it no longer applies, but this won't affect how it's accessed. Total War: Warhammer and Total War: Warhammer 2 both had extensive post-launch support, and Total War: Warhammer 3 shouldn't be any different. These will take time, and when combined with the extensive post-launch DLC outlined in the roadmap for Total War: Warhammer 3. In particular, the developers have highlighted issues with how Corruption works, lighting quality on maps from the first two games, and balancing factions across the three games to ensure there's a generally consistent playing field. Creative Assembly says that Immortal Empires will be 'content complete' at launch, but that there are countless small things that will take time to fix. The reason for this is that the developers want to provide Immortal Empires to fans as quickly as possible, but are also blunt about just how complicated this undertaking is. I know that I'm looking forward to this, and, much like with Mortal Empires, I'll end up playing a lot of Immortal Empires when it's released.Immortal Empires is launching in an open beta format. You can find out about this map on the official website and blog post by Creative Assembly. More content is planned for Total War: Warhammer III. Any Lord or Hero will be able to move into the Sea Lane markers, allowing them to set sail and reach their destination after being at sea for a few turns.īest of all is that this isn't the end of Total War's Warhammer universe. Interacting with them will provide the option to travel from the East of the map to the West and vice versa (with the exception of the Underworld Sea, which connects the Sea of Malice to the Boiling Sea), allowing for more exotic confrontations to be had, new allegiances to be formed, and unique roleplaying opportunities when once-distant factions meet for the first time. Rather than explain it in my own words, here's what Creative Assembly have said about the sea lanes:

It's so big that, even though it's one single map, you still need sea lanes, as mentioned in Empire: Total War earlier. As you'll likely notice on the map above, it's enormous.
