A hotfix is now live for THREE KINGDOMS. This means that in saves started before release of The Furious Wild, rebellions in regions that are now Nanman will no longer cause crashes, but the rebel armies that are spawned will look weird. For example, they might have missing character art or missing unit cards. We encourage everyone to start a new campaign to get the full benefits of the changes the release of The Furious Wild has brought to the game.

Still not sold on The Furious Wild? Weve got elephants, tigers, fire, and blowguns - and if thats not enough to convince you, take a look at this video for a quick overview of what else is on offer: https://twitter.com/totalwar/status/1303332517777494016 Get your copy of The Furious Wild here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1299591/Total_War_THREE_KINGDOMS__The_Furious_Wild/ If you are experiencing a high level of crashing in the game during the end turn phase, this may be caused by loading old saves on the new patch. While we investigate a possible fix, we advise either starting a new save or rolling your game back to old_1.5.3 through the Betas tab in Steam.
