In the first 24 hours of release at the Epic Games Store, Creative Assembly’s A Total War Saga: TROY was claimed free of charge by more than 7.5 million players. The result was more than what people at Creative Assembly really expected.
“We were optimistic but we couldn’t have predicted this level of excitement,” said Rob Bartholomew, Chief Product Officer at Creative Assembly. “It’s been incredible to work with Epic on giving this brand new release away for free. Now we get to welcome so many strategy players – new and old – to experience this incredible Saga. We’re very happy.”
With the amount of players who claimed the game, it seems like a brand-new generation of fans is born.
“TROY is the first in our award-winning strategy series to recreate epic conflict in the Bronze Age and the legendary conflict known as the Trojan War.”
For people who missed the chance of getting the game, A Total War Saga: TROY is available for purchase exclusively at the Epic Games Store for US$49.99.
