Total War is 15 years old this month and to celebrate Creative Assembly and Steam are holding a Free Weekend and sale. Players will be able to try out the Total War games for free from 6pm GMT on Thursday, June 25th until 6pm GMT on Sunday, June 28th.

During this time, most of the Total War catalogue on Steam will be up to 75% off with all DLC (excluding Total War: Attila – The Last Roman) at 50% off.

Also available today is the new campaign pack for Total War: Attila, The Last Roman. Alongside this, players are also awarded a new free DLC playable faction for Total War: Attila, the Suebi – including a new historical battle (The Battle of Dara) and the latest game patch.

Including a new campaign map, The Last Roman expansion also features a unique new “Roman Expedition” faction as one of 5 playable factions. This gives players the chance to experience the story of Belisarius, one of the last great Roman generals, who was tasked with retaking the former Western Roman Empire by the Emperor Justinian.

Players can chose to follow the Emperor’s orders and liberate territory in his name, or break from his rule in defiant rebellion and attempt to crown themselves as a new Emperor of Rome.
