News that The British studio has Total War: Star Wars in its future plans This is good news for fans of the Total War saga (or more precisely, sagas within the family), for fans of real-time strategies and for those who do not miss anything related to Star Wars. And if you happen to be like me, who has green ticked all three boxes, chances are you’re walking on walls right now (friendly reminder: anticipation of unreleased games can be quite damaging).

In case you are not familiar with the titles grouped into the Total War family, it is the work of Creative Assembly, whose first title released in 2000 was Shogun: Total War (until 2011, the name of the games was written in reverse, i.e. is (i.e. first the name of the title or saga and then Total War) They are one of the great references in the real-time strategy market. So we are talking about more than 20 years of experience in the genre with a very solid design both in terms of gameplay and impressive graphics.

Star Wars, on the other hand, offers huge possibilities As for making a game of this style, something we could already see in 2001 with Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds and in 2006 with Star Wars Empire at War, two great titles that, yes, clearly show the passage of time. while still perfectly enjoyable today, they don’t come close to taking advantage of what today’s hardware has to offer. So an update with this Total War: Star Wars would mean the update that many of us have been waiting for.

However, at this time there is no information about the historical period it will focus on., i.e. not even the factions that will be available for confrontations. However, it seems that the studio has been working on this title for about two years now, so if we take into account the history of the studio, we can expect it to be launched in 2025 or 2026 and thus On its official confirmation and hopefully we will learn more details o Total War: Star Wars, we don’t have to wait too long.

Recall that this is not the first time that Creative Assembly has expanded the Total War family with third-party franchises, as a few years ago He already had huge success with the Total War: WARHAMMER trilogy, the third part of which we published with an in-depth analysis and which, as you will see in it, left an excellent taste in our mouths. While we already know how risky it is, having suffered it with another title in the Star Wars franchise over a year ago, it’s hard not to get excited, even if it’s just a little bit.
