In the Total War: Warhammer series, co-op is a huge part of the appeal of the game, and Total War: Warhammer 3 is no exception. Working together with friends in a joint campaign where you conquer the whole world while brokering an uneasy peace with each other is incredibly fun.
Co-op was limited to just two players in previous titles, but in Total War: Warhammer 3, that’s being increased toeight players total. In an interview withPCGamesN, game director Ian Roxburgh revealed that the campaign would have an eight-person co-op mode.

In addition, the game’s director hinted at mini multiplayer campaigns that allow you to “start and finish an eight-player multiplayer campaign in one evening with friends.” In the past, thanks to the considerable length of turns and the complexity of the game, doing more than a few turns in an evening was a lengthy process.
With these mini-campaigns, playing with more players is likely to be much more manageable. But these mini-campaigns won’t take away from the Grand Campaign, which is, of course, the big selling point of Total War: Warhammer 3.
What’s more, the considerable slowdown point in Total War: Warhammer’s previous games was the fact that player turns would take so long. Now, you’re able to have simultaneous player turns for maximum efficiency. Overall, it seems like multiplayer in Total War: Warhammer 3 will be better than ever.
