"With nearly a decade of development on the Total War: WARHAMMER trilogy behind us, it feels surreal to see its culminating chapter so close to release," today's statement on the delay from Rob Bartholomew, Total War: Warhammer III's Chief Product Officer, reads. "While it's tempting to rush to the finish line as it comes into view, we have made the decision to give it a little more time by moving the launch of Total War: WARHAMMER III from 2021 to early 2022."
"The wait won't be much longer, and we'll have plenty of new information for you in the meantime," the statement continues. "The new date will make for a stronger release and the best first step into a new era for Total War: WARHAMMER. We don't consider this release the end of our trilogy, but the start of years of content and support as we continue to bring the jaw-dropping scale of Games Workshop's fantasy universe to Total War."

"Our vision, from the start, was to create a series that felt like an incredible journey through this world we all loved," said Ian Roxburgh, Game Director on Total War: Warhammer III, as part of the original announcement of the video game. "The enormous support of our players in ensuring the success of the first two installments has pushed our ambition to new heights, and we can't wait for everyone to experience it."
Total War: Warhammer III is now set to release in early 2022 for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
