Warhammer 40K Darktide is a perfect team-bonding exercise with weighty weapons
Feeling proud is a nice sensation isn’t it? I’ve felt proud a number of times at this year’s Gamescom so far, marked first by an excellent McDonald’s choice (honey crisp chicken and bacon) on the first evening, followed by a doner kebab that put it to shame. And in a non-savoury twist, today it was being a member of the first squad to complete the Warhammer 40K: Darktide demo mission – the sweetest feeling of them all, and a perfect team-bonding exercise.
The bonus emotions? Surprise and… not being so surprised. Surprise that we’d accomplished such a feat, but not so much surprise in the game itself. It was, as expected, a good co-op FPS time! But a very familiar one.

Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires map and release date
So you want to know about Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires? Creative Assembly confirmed that it’s working on a new, big map combining all three strategy games via the official Warhammer III FAQ. The studio states that, “We will release a massive combined map that will be a huge free DLC for owners of all three games.”
We also now have more details on when Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires is coming. Creative Assembly published another developer blog post in June 2022, this time dedicated exclusively to the new mode, going into more detail as to what “phase one” would entail as well as offering a narrowed release schedule.

Total War: Warhammer 3 – Immortal Empires is a messy masterpiece
Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires is an impressive achievement in dedicated grand-strategy creation
There’s a long-standing theory among the Warhammer community that the chaos wastes at the globe’s south pole house a peculiar breed of beastmen in the form of evil, monstrous penguins. The theory is based on a world with similar geography to our own, and the tendency of the ruinous powers to morph local fauna into mockeries of their previous forms. No ping-gors show themselves as I trawl the southern wastes as stealthy chameleon-skink Oxyotl, but I find myself thinking about them all the same. Noot for the noot god, the blasted crags seem to whisper. Fish for the fish throne.
Evil penguins or not, all things seem possible with Immortal Empires, the combined landmass of the Total War: Warhammer trilogy into a single sandbox map, vast and varied in its climates, landmarks, and inhabitants. Creative Assembly have already dug deep into dusty stacks of White Dwarf to flesh out footnotes into full factions, and as the list of obvious additions dwindle, things can only get wilder and more creative. For now, we have one very big map stuffed with each faction and lord from three massive strategy games, creaking and occasionally buckling under the weight of its own promise. But it works. There’s a breadth of technical and balance issues still to solve, but the Immortal Empires beta is substantially more stable, playable, and enjoyable than I dared to hope it would be for at least another six months.
