Creative Assembly has this week announced that the launch of the new Total War Warhammer will be delayed a month until May 24th 2016 after previously being expected to launch on April 24th 2016.
As well as announcing the games delay its developer has also released the minimum PC specifications that will allow you to enjoy the game as well as the recommended specifications to be able to get the most out of the graphics and gameplay.
To wet your appetite ahead of the game’s launch check out the video below for a teaser and taster of what you can expect. Creative Assembly explains more about the delay :
So first things first: we’re moving the launch of the game back by a month to 24 May 2016. Listen – we don’t want to rush this. This could be the best TW game we’ve made and we want reviewers to have enough time to play it thoroughly before launch, so that you get a fair review from a reviewer you trust. Hopefully, you can understand that – and of course we apologise for any hassle this might cause you.
