Feral Interactive released a macOS and Linux version of the game on the same day. Set in the Three Kingdoms period (220280), players control one of the games twelve factions, who must eliminate other factions, unify China and become its ultimate ruler. These factions are led by warlords, such as Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan. In siege battles, players command both infantry and cavalry units. All the units featured in the game are divided into different retinues, with each led by a powerful general. The player can deploy up to three generals into the battlefield at once along with three in reserve, and players will only have access to the units that said generals can recruit. These generals, which can be commanded separately from their troops, have possession of unique ancillaries, which can be looted once they are killed. For instance, L Bu s Red Hare can be captured and used by other generals. Each general has different classes and specialties, granting their units with both active and passive buffs. The team introduces the concept of guanxi to the game, in which each general will form social connections and relationships with other characters. Viewing concepts like obligations, reciprocity, and trust as important virtues, these generals have unique personalities and desires that players need to cater to. If their demands are not met, their happiness rating will drop and this may lead to various repercussions for players. Unlike previous Total War games in which characters seldom interact with each other, the generals featured in the game are actively forming relationships with the characters they meet throughout the campaign. This adds a strategic layer to the game in which players need to understand these generals before making any decisions. The first mode, Romance, is based on the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, in which generals are gifted with nearly superhuman strength. Another mode, Records, based on Records of the Three Kingdoms, presents a more historically authentic version. In Records, the generals have their powers removed and they can no longer be commanded separately, in addition to changing certain equipment in-game to be more historically authentic. The new emperor, Emperor Xian, enthroned at the age of eight, was manipulated by the warlord Dong Zhuo, whose oppressive rule leads to chaos. New warlords rise and form alliances to start the campaign against Dong Zhuo. With each warlord having personal ambitions and allegiances constantly shifting, the champions that emerge from the ever lasting wars will shape the future of China. Creative Assembly had refined many elements of the game, bringing changes to both the artificial intelligence and the user interface. The team introduced the system of guanxi in order to make the characters and generals more important in the game, as Records and Romances, two of the teams most prominent source materials, have a huge focus on characters. Chris Wray of wccftech describes the game is as close to flawless, with a fantastic balance of 4X strategy and character-focused development and emergent storytelling. IGN s TJ Hafer stated that Three Kingdoms should serve as the example for all games of its genre going forward. Edwin Evans-Thirlwell of The Guardian stated the game.is a wonderfully torrid period epic that understands the greatest stories are written about people, not empires. ![]() Preston Dozsa of CGMagazine stated the game represents the best of both the historical and fantasy sides of the franchise. Sean Martin from Hooked Gamers stated the game is the most divergent Total War Ive seen since Total War: Warhammer.. Denis Ryan of Rock, Paper, Shotgun stated the game draws inspiration from many games that Creative Assembly created in the past, and despite the resemblance there really is no game which has quite the same combination of elements, nor is there any strategy game that looks this good.
