Feral Interactive has brought Total War: Empire to mobile, 15 years after its initial release on PC. The publisher’s previous ports of Total War titles are still as popular as ever, so this version’s redesigned UI, intuitive touch controls, and quality-of-life updates are a hit with RTS fans.

As the name suggests, Total War: Empire takes place during the 18th Century and centers around the rapid expansion and conquest of the various European colonial states at the time. As the fifth installment in Creative Assembly’s tactics game series, Total War: Empire combines strategic diplomatic and political decision-making with real-time strategy struggles for power.

Even though both Total War: Rome and Medieval II are on mobile devices, Total War: Empire is the first game in the series to include real-time naval combat on the platform, which makes sense given how crucial the seas were for travel and trade at the time. Take your pick from one of 11 playable factions and stake your claim across the globe.

When was the Total War: Empire mobile release date?

Total War: Mobile launched on iOS and Android devices on November 21, 2024. You can pick it up now from the App Store or Google Play.
