Update 4.0 arrives tomorrow (Aug 31st), bringing with it not just many improvements to Total War: WARHAMMER III but also a bunch of new content to sink your vortex-warped tentacles into. Here are some of the highlights:

• The Changeling, Yuan Bo, and Mother Ostankya arrive in Shadows of Change!
• Let Tzeentch take the wheel with The Blue Scribes, scattering spells across the battlefield with only the hand of fate to guide them.
• Take it to your foes with our newest free Legendary Hero for Tzeentch, Aekold Helbrass.
• Control your destiny like never before with additional difficulty options and sweeping AI improvements across both the campaign map and battles.
• Show off your skills with 32 new achievements for every existing race within the WARHAMMER trilogy.

Get yourself a cup of tea, make yourself comfortable, and dive into the full patch notes:

Update 4.0 Release Notes

[previewyoutube=Y6k8j9brkP8;full][/previewyoutube] And there you have it! "'Ang on there, gov'nor," you might be saying, especially if you're a ravishing cockney lady or gent. "Why have we got the Patch Notes today if the patch itself ain't out 'til tomorra?" To which our reply would likely be "well spotted!", with a tip of the hat. We're aiming to bring you the Patch Notes a day ahead of the release of every update from now on, as it's something that lots of you have asked for. And it makes sense, because it's nice to know what's coming before it's depositing itself on your hard drive. Update 4.1 is already cooking nicely and we'll have plenty to show you when that rolls around in due course. In the meantime, prepare to jump into Update 4.0, play around with the new difficulty settings and AI behaviours, earn some achievements and cause a great deal of mischief in Shadows of Change. From everyone on the Total War team, thank you for all your support - not only in the build-up to this release, but over the many years we've been on this journey together. We know it can be a rocky road sometimes, but it's having you with us that makes it all worthwhile. As the throne we write this from starts to feel mighty rickety... decayed, perhaps... we'll wrap things up and see you on the battlefield! The Total War Team [hr][/hr][hr][/hr]
