Total War: SHOGUN II
Total War: SHOGUN II will be free to keep starting on 27 April and until 1 May. The promotion will be a part of the Total War sale which will end on 4 May.
Creative Assembly's Total War: SHOGUN II will be free to keep on Steam. The promotion will start on Monday 27 April 2020 and come to an end on Friday 1 May 2020. Stay Home, Save Lives and conquer feudal Japan.
The idea to make Total War: SHOGUN II free to keep for a limited time came when the powers that be got inspired by "the remarkable collective effort being made by the global community to overcome this moment of adversity".
That said, they want to keep the people excited by the prospect of staying home by giving away their RTS title.
Within this epic tribute to Feudal Japan, players can recreate an iconic conflict of traditional samurai culture, build vast empires from Fukushima to Hitachi, or enact crafty schemes through spy and assassin networks. With hundreds of hours of the campaign and battle to play, Sega and Creative Assembly hope it helps make the days a little brighter.
