New Total War: Warhammer III trailer shows Azazel in action

Total War: Warhammer III

Creative Assembly have released a 12-minute gameplay trailer showing off Azazel, one of the new Legendary Lords being added in Total War: Warhammer III‘s upcoming Champions of Chaos DLC.

Champions of Chaos is Total War: Warhammer III‘s first big post-launch DLC pack, and will be adding 4 new Legendary Lords to the game for the foul Ruinous Powers. Azazel, the Prince of Damnation, is the leader of Slaanesh’s Ecstatic Legion. You can see this depraved devotee of the Dark Prince in action in the trailer below, which showcases some of his campaign.


The Champions of Chaos DLC releases on August 23rd, which coincides with the launch of the massive and highly anticipated Immortal Empires update. In addition to the new trailer, Creative Assembly also detailed some of the changes and balance tweaks players can expect in the update.

You can find a rundown (via Steam) below:

THE WORLD TEETERS ON THE BRINK OF CHAOS
The last roar of a dying god ruptures the boundary between worlds, opening a portal to the Realm of Chaos. From this maelstrom, the four Ruinous Powers – Khorne, Nurgle, Tzeentch and Slaanesh – emerge, spreading darkness and despair.

The stern warriors of Kislev and the vast empire of Grand Cathay stand at the threshold, as a vengeful Daemon Prince vows to destroy those who corrupted him. The coming conflict will engulf all. Will you conquer your daemons? Or command them?
