Total War Delay Sees Addition of Multplayer Campaign Mode
Finally, one can actually be glad that the game they had been looking to was delayed: following word that Empire: Total War had been delayed for one month, developer Creative Assembly has revealed that they are using the extra time to add a full campaign multiplayer mode to the strategy title.
“The additional time will allow us to implement the underlying technology for a much desired feature; a multiplayer campaign mode,” wrote Creative Assembly’s Mark O’Connell. “An opportunity to participate in the 1 versus 1 multiplayer campaign mode beta will be made available to all Empire Total War buyers post release.”
The game is due out in March 2009.
