Sega, Wargaming & Creative Assembly Partner For Total War: Arena
World of Tanks creator Wargaming and its Wargaming Alliance publishing arm is joining forces with Sega and its internal studio Creative Assembly to release Total War: Arena. The game is a free-to-play 10v10 team multiplayer title.
The Wargaming Alliance imprint bestows resources, the Wargaming subscriber base, and Wargaming's FTP knowledge to its partners, and Total War: Arena is the label's first release – although a release date or timeframe for the game has not been announced. The title was first announced in 2013.

Our Take
Not a lot has been said about the title since its initial reveal, and it will be interesting to find out if, given its experience in the area, Wargaming made any suggestions for the game's features and development, or if this is a more surface partnership.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
