Development history[ | ]
Thrones of Decay was announced in the Total War: Warhammer 3 roadmap released in May 2023.[1]
Originally, Thrones of Decay was stated to come out during Winter of 2023 but due to the poor reception and various controversies surrounding the previous DLC, Shadows of Change, it was delayed along with the unnamed DLC that will come with Update 6.0.
On 4 April 2024, a new blogpost was posted by Creative Assembly giving more details on Thrones of Decay, the most important being the new buying method for this DLC.[2] A player will now be given the option to buy an individual piece of content instead of buying the full DLC:
As announced last year, Thrones of Decay welcomes all-new content for the Empire, Dwarfs and Nurgle, and we’re happy to reveal that each faction's new content will be available to purchase either as a bundle, or on an individual basis i.e. if you only want to play as the Empire, you can buy this section of the DLC as a standalone purchase rather than having to buy everything, allowing you to pick and choose what you want to play. Here's how it'll work:
- Thrones of Decay will be available to buy as a complete bundle at a discounted rate of $22.92/£19.10/€22.92.
- Each individual pack will be available to purchase for $8.99/£7.49/€8.99 per pack.
- If you purchase the packs individually on Steam, you’ll receive a 15% discount on the remaining packs when you complete your collection.
