Rome II: Imperator Augustus Campaign Pack Adds New Factions and Symbols of Power

The new Imperator Augustus Campaign Pack has just been released for Total War: Rome II, offering hundreds of hours of sandbox gameplay across a new campaign map that reflects the geopolitical boundaries of the Second Triumvirate War. This epic campaign is available to existing Rome II players for free as a thank you for their support.

The pack represents the titanic power struggle that led to Octavian becoming the first Emperor of Rome, allowing players to tackle the campaign as various Roman and non-Roman factions, including Armenia for the first time. 'With the Imperator Augustus Campaign Pack, we wanted to recreate the vast civil war which erupted after Julius Caesar's murder,' said Jack Lusted, Development Lead of CA's New Content Team.

The design of Emperor Edition was led by Lusted, who aimed to create a game that would be remembered as one of the finest in the Total War series. Through numerous improvements and free content updates since its launch, the developers have worked hard to meet players' expectations.

As Mike Simpson, Creative Director of the Total War team, noted, 'Rome II was far and away our most ambitious game.' And with Emperor Edition, existing Rome II players will receive all of the above content via automatic update on the day of launch, upgrading them to Emperor Edition at no cost.

In addition to all feature updates from launch, including integration, touch controls, new factions, new units, and a Mac version, Emperor Edition also features an improved politics system, overhauled building chains, rebalanced battles, and improved visuals in both campaign and battle. The pack is now available for players to experience the power struggle of ancient Rome like never before.

With Imperator Augustus, Total War: Rome II Emperor Edition collects all free content to date, including wide-ranging revisions, additions to game features, and a brand new Campaign Pack expansion. It's a must-have for any fan of the series or strategy games in general.
