Recently, the Total War: Warhammer 3 update – Immortal Empires was released, which gives players access to one incredibly huge map. Fans of the series have been dreaming regarding this for a long time, because there has never been such a huge scale in Total War games. So it’s understandable why tens of thousands of gamers decided to try Warhammer 3 with the new mode at the same time.
At the release of Total War: Warhammer 3 set a record for the number of simultaneous players for the series – more than 166 thousand people. However, this value quickly fell to 8 thousand.
The release of Immortal Empires did not set a new record, but showed that the game still has a huge audience and the issue of its retention must be solved with interesting content. At the launch of the update on August 23, the number of simultaneous players reached more than 119 thousand people. Since then, the peak has slightly decreased, but on August 27, the maximum number of players reached 103 thousand.
Time will tell if Immortal Empires can keep gamers interested for an extended period. However, given the size of the map and how many dozens of hours you can spend on it, this is quite possible.
