Sega and Creative Assembly have announced that Total War: Pharoah will release on October 11th in digital form and later in the month in physical form. In celebration of the release date, a new video for the game has been released, that shows the games campaign map.

Within it, players will immerse themselves within the turbulent events of the Egyptian New Kingdom period where they’ll determine the fate of three great cultures – the Egyptians, the Hittites, and the Canaanites – as they fight for survival amid the cataclysmic Bronze Age collapse.

By pre-ordering now, players can gain access to a PHARAOH’s trove of early-adopter bonuses including the ability to take part in an Early Access Weekend, the Avatar of the Gods Cosmetic Pack, and the Heart of the Shardana Cosmetic pack.

The Early Access Weekend allows players to venture into the breath-taking world of Ancient Egypt from Friday, 29th September to Monday 2nd October. The prestigious Ramesses and the barbaric Irsu will be at their command as you wage war across 60 turns of strategic campaign gameplay with unlimited replays available within the timeframe.
