The developers of Total War: Pharaoh talked about the importance of weather conditions in the new strategy and how this nuance is implemented in the game

Creative Assembly studio has published a new issue of the Development Diary of historical strategy Total War: Pharaoh.

Here's What We Know

This time British game designers paid attention to one of the main features of the game - detailed simulation of weather conditions.

The gameplay of Total War: Pharaoh largely depends on the "weather forecast" in Ancient Egypt:

  • heavy rains generate floodwaters, which cause flooding and impede the passage of infantry and chariots;
  • sandstorms prevent archers from taking aim;
  • persistent heat causes fires that can affect cities and armies;
  • strong winds hinder the movement of ships and boats.

In addition, the developers paid attention to the importance of chariots, because in Total War: Pharaoh cavalry is of key importance and is necessary to win battles.

When We Can Expect It

Total War: Pharaoh will be released in October 2023 on PC only.
