Hotfix 5.2.4



Greetings folks,

We're back with a small but important update for Total War: WARHAMMER III. Today, we're rolling out Hotfix 5.2.4 to address a specific issue that has been affecting some of you during your Warriors of Chaos campaigns.

  • Resolves a crash to desktop (CTD) that could occur when pressing the 'Choose Path' button in the 'Path to Glory' panel.

We know how frustrating crashes can be, especially when you're deep into the chaos of battle, and we appreciate your patience while we worked to get this fix out to you.

Additionally, we want to provide some clarity regarding a note from Hotfix 5.2.3: "The AI-controlled Lord will no longer withdraw when ambushed if it has a good chance of winning." The change is not specific to Lords. The correct information is that the battle AI will not withdraw when ambushed if its army has at least 75% of the attacker's army strength. Army strength is calculated by the sum of its units' strength. While this unit strength value is not visible to players, it is a key factor in AI decision-making, greatly enhancing its battle strategies in many situations.

We are also aware of a separate issue, not addressed in this fix, where an army may retreat in battle after already retreating earlier in the same turn, causing the entire army to be wiped out. We are actively investigating this and appreciate your reports and feedback on the matter.

As always, thank you for your continued support and feedback—it helps us keep improving the game. If you run into any new issues after updating to 5.2.4, please report them in our dedicated bug reporting sub-forum.

See you on the battlefield!

—The Total War Team

Total War Warhammer 3's next legendary lords add new ways to play

Space Marine 2's launch might have brought Warhammer 40k to the fore in the world of videogames, but the iconic setting's classic fantasy counterpart is still very much active, and no more so than in Total War Warhammer 3. Hot off the heels of its recent patch 5.2, developer Creative Assembly has more details on what the future holds for one of the best strategy games on PC. There's lots to look forward to in TWW3 patch 6.0 and the next round of DLC, including some fun systems to capture the essence of its new legendary lords.

I simply cannot help myself. Every addition is one step closer to us getting an official Clan Skurvy. Creative Assembly just put out a new video going into more details about what to expect from the strategy game’s next DLC. Here’s a roundup of the last one to get you up to speed before I start frothing like a pint of Bugman’s. That was a Warhammer reference! From Warhammer!

Dev Chat on 6.0 and Interim Patches - What's Next?

UPDATE 12/09/24 @ 10:30AM BST:

Hi all, I’m so glad you’re championing the idea of us making Egrimm, I want him too! When I mentioned in the video that he would better suit a DLC rather than a patch, I meant that it takes a vast amount of time, effort and money from across the team to do a character like him justice, so I didn’t want you all to get your hopes up that you’d see him in one of our interim patches like 5.2 or 5.3. He is on our loooooong to-do list with lots of other things you're requesting, and while we aren't currently planning a new Tzeentch DLC specifically or Egrimm anytime soon, we still plan to introduce other characters you're all super passionate about through FLC and maybe one day Egrimm in this capacity too!

Greetings folks!

Back in June I sat down with Rich, Sean and Victor from the WARHAMMER III development team to share some juicy new details on what's coming to the game in the next DLC, as well as our approach to interim patches coming between now and the next DLC's arrival. In case you've been living under an Ogre-sized rock these past couple of months, you can check it out right here.

Recently I hopped back on the sofa to chat with Rich and Sean, plus Design Director Mitch Heastie, to chat more about what's coming in 6.0 get some insight on what sort of content you can also expect to see in our future interim patches.

Allow your eyes to absorb it here:

As with last time, this is a pretty new format for us, so please do share your thoughts with us along with any suggestions on what you'd like to see more of next time!

You can also head over to the official Discord server and the CA Community to share your hopes and dreams regarding future refreshes and reworks. Who knows, maybe Mitch will agree with you and make some magic happen!

We aim to be back with more news on our next major patch, 5.3, towards the end of October, so until then, we'll see you on the battlefield!
