The end of the Samurai era, the dawn of an Empire!
The standalone expansion to the award winning Total War: Shogun 2 explores the conflict between the Imperial throne and the last Shogunate in 19th century Japan, 400 years after the events of the original game – a dramatic clash of traditional Samurai culture with the explosive power of modern weaponry.
Guide ancient Japan into the modern age, as the arrival of America, Britain and France incites a ferocious civil war which will decide the future of the nation.
Dramatic 19th-century-Japan settingBased on the backdrop of the Boshin War period, the new campaign starts in 1864, during a time of growing resentment against Western colonial power and influence. As Japan began to modernize and industrialize, the inevitable social and economic changes led to increasingly militant nationalism and antipathy towards the Shogunate.
Six new playable clansPlay as a clan supporting the Imperial throne (Choshu, Satsuma, Tosa), or the last Shogunate (Aizu, Nagaoka, Jozai).
New foreign powersThe American, British and French nations played an important part in the story of the Boshin war and your relations with these foreign powers will be integral to unit recruitment and to advancing your technology trees.
New 19th century Japan campaign mapThe new island of Ezo extends the Shogun 2 campaign map northwards. Fully refreshed towns and other campaign map features reflect the different time period, with railways making their first appearance in a Total War title.
Railway lines on the campaign mapDevelop your own railway network to move armies and agents between your regions. Railways can be sabotaged and transport can be blocked by enemy armies who take control of parts of the line or railway stations.
39 new land unitsModern ranged units - such as the Gatling gun and Armstrong gun - are controllable in a new first-person mode. New units can also be recruited from foreign powers, including the British Royal Marines, US Marine Corps and French Marines.
