Prime Gaming Drops Total War Bundle
Prime Gaming's March freebies include Total War: Rome II and Three Kingdoms strategy epics, plus simulation game Turmoil dropping March 12. The bundle offers hundreds of hours of strategic gameplay for subscribers.
The *Total War* franchise, developed by the British studio Creative Assembly, has been a cornerstone of the strategy genre since the release of *Shogun: Total War* in 2000. Known for its massive scale, the series blends turn-based empire management with real-time tactical battles involving thousands of units. Creative Assembly was acquired by Sega in 2005 and has continued to evolve the series. *Total War: Rome II - Emperor Edition* is the definitive version of the 2013 title, including an improved political system, rebalanced battles, and all free downloadable content released since its launch. This edition also features the "Imperator Augustus" campaign pack, set in the chaotic aftermath of Julius Caesar's assassination. The base game is typically priced around $59.99. *Total War: Three Kingdoms*, while not part of this specific bundle, is another critically acclaimed entry in the series, released in 2019. Set in 2nd century China, it introduced a greater focus on character-driven narratives and relationships, based on the classic novel *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*. This title broke sales records for the franchise upon its release. The other game in the bundle, *Turmoil*, offers a completely different strategic experience. Developed by Gamious, this simulation game is inspired by the 19th-century oil rush in North America. Players compete to become successful oil entrepreneurs by prospecting, drilling, and selling oil in a dynamic market. It normally retails for $12.99.
