It was released on 13 August 2020 for Microsoft Windows via the Epic Games Store. Total War Saga: Troy was announced by publisher Sega on 19 September 2019. For instance, the Trojan horse would be an earthquake, a siege tower, or a massive wooden structure instead of a huge, wooden horse. Georgieva called this approach "truth behind the myth", in which the team came up with the "most probable explanations for the myths and legends to complete the history". Despite the mythical elements, the team tried to make the game as historically grounded as possible. According to Maya Georgieva, the game's director, the Bronze Age was a very difficult setting to work on due to the lack of detailed historical records and sources.Īs a result, the team resorted to using the Iliad, an ancient Greek epic poem, to fill up the historical details that were missing. The lead developer is Creative Assembly Sofia based in Bulgaria, which took approximately two years and nine months to develop the game. Troy, similar to its predecessor, was designed to be a shorter but more focused game, and its scope was limited to a particular time period in history instead of being era-spanning. The game is the second installment in the Total War Saga subseries, following 2018's Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia. Multiplayer, which supports up to 8 players, was introduced on November 26, 2020. Outside of battles, players also need to collect sufficient resources, such as wood, bronze and food, in order to keep the army running.Īgents return in Troy, and players can send priests and spies to infiltrate hostile cities. If the approval ratings with the Gods are high enough, the player would gain gameplay benefits. There are a total of eight heroes representing the two factions (the Trojans and the Achaeans), and each hero has two unique abilities that can be used during battles.Īs the player progress in the game, they can also build their relationship with the Greek gods. Real-time battles take place in large sandboxes, and players can command the infantry, hero unitsa as well as mystical beasts as they battle opponent forces.
The game is set in the Bronze Age, during the Trojan War, though its scope also covers the surrounding Aegean civilization. Like its predecessors, Total War Saga: Troy is a turn-based strategy game with real-time tactics elements. The game received generally positive reviews upon release.
