Total War: WARHAMMER II News

A beta update for The Hunter & The Beast is now live.

The main update is that based on community feedback, we’ve reverted the change to ports to what they were prior to The Hunter & The Beast’s release. We’ll be looking at a wider economy pass later which will involve ports and all other methods of generating income.

Other fixes include:
• Fixed a UI softlock that could occur if one of the new events triggered on the same turn as a piece of advice.
• You no longer receive a negative toward trustworthiness when war is declared via one of the Elector Count events.
• Waystalker will no longer T-pose when using Arrow of Kurnous ability.
• Glade Lords on mounts will now correctly have a cooldown on Arrow of Kurnous.
• Various localisation fixes in multiple languages.

Instructions for opting into and downloading the update are as follows:
• In your Steam games library, right-click Total War: WARHAMMER II and select Properties.
• In the Properties window, select the BETAS tab.
• Select hunter_beta from the list.
• Total War: WARHAMMER II will automatically update to the hunter_beta.

Are you ready to hunt – or be hunted?

Dread Saurians are few in number and sacred to the Lizardmen, and the fury of each that prowls the fetid jungles is moderated only by the arcane power of the ceremonial armour that bedecks them. Without this precaution, even the power of the Slann could not hold them in check when they are unleashed: https://youtu.be/8bSFKK0PCIk
