Sega’s The Creative Assembly revealed the Skaven rat faction as the fourth playable race in Total War: Warhammer II. And it’s a logical question as to whether this faction is going to be overwhelming.
I went to a preview event for the game, which debuts on Steam on the PC on September 28. I played the beginning of the campaign for the Skaven, and I captured a number of videos of the gameplay. And I spoke with Al Bickham, communications manager at The Creative Assembly, who noted that the Skaven can spread in a stealthy way. That’s because they can build their underground cities in the ruins of other cities. Other players won’t know what is happening until they actually move onto that ruin. To them, it looks like any other abandoned city. But when they move into it, they may find a huge fortress and an army of rats awaiting them.
