Since 2016, Creative Assembly has been steadily working to expand The Old World of Warhammer with the release of Total War: Warhammer, Total War: Warhammer 2, and near-innumerable DLC packs and updates. With the announcement of Total War: Warhammer 3, Creative Assembly is poised to complete its adaption of Games Workshop s world in a way that finally realizes the vision of the tabletop game as one of the best PC games available.
Warhammer built a massive tabletop following that, admittedly, never reached the heights of its later science-fiction counterpart, Warhammer 40,000 (which also has a promising game this year with the upcoming Darktide).

Total War: Warhammer 3 takes place in The Realm of Chaos, where the four Chaos Gods hold sway: Khorne, Slaanesh, Tzeentch and Nurgle. Opposing these beings of pure chaos are the kingdom of Kislev and the empire of Cathay. Sometime after launch, players will be able to combine these this game with the two prior titles, creating a massive mega-campaign.

Posted over on the official Total War Reddit, the minute long teaser is titled “Azyr Stirs” depicts an mage astronomer spying a cryptic constellation from an observatory within the Imperial capital of Altdorf where the Colleges of Magic reside.
In the world of Warhammer Fantasy, there are several different flavours (or “Winds”) of magic, each with their own their own school and powerful grimoire of spells. Azyr, also referred to as the Lore of Heavens, is one such Wind that specifically relates to everything celestial and the skies above. Spells vary from trusty lightning bolts and clearing clouds to divination and speaking to birds.
