In terms of new content coming in the third installment of Total War: Warhammer, the upcoming video game is set to feature the Kislev and Cathay races in addition to factions like Kohrone, Nurgle, Slaanesh, and Tzeentch.

The cataclysmic conclusion draws near. Corruption entices all… What choices will you make?
