LONDON – November 14, 2017 –SEGA® Europe Ltd. today announced the new historical strategy game Thrones of Britannia, the first title in the new ‘A Total War™ Saga’ series from its studio, Creative Assembly.
It is 878 AD, and the Viking Invasion of Britain is over. The Norse warlords are firmly established, but the ambitious kings of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales have aspirations of their own – not least the great King Alfred of Wessex. Britannia is a furnace of possibilities, from which the template for modern Britain will be forged, across the most detailed Total War campaign map ever made.
“Our aim with Total War Sagas is to explore key flashpoints at distinct places and times in history”, said Series Director, Mike Simpson. “Unlike our era-spanning titles, we’re putting defined geographical areas under the microscope, building super-detailed campaign maps with a strong cultural focus and flavour that players can dive into. This will complement our broader-scope titles perfectly”.
A Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia will be available for PC in 2018, visit the store page on Steam here: http://store.steampowered.com/

About the Game
In SEVEN: THE DAYS LONG GONE, you play as Teriel, a master thief possessed, in the most symbiotic ways possible, by an ancient daemon (Artanak) and deported to the prison island of Peh. Teriel, with Artanak?s help, unearths the island?s dark secrets and soon learns that the fate of the entire Vetrall Empire rests in the balance.
The post-apocalyptic world is filled with mysterious technology and Dark Age superstition, diverse communities that react to every action, and a rich ecosystem of creatures to interact with, from animals to people to monsters. You are free to explore the vast yet unforgiving sandbox world, whether following the main story line or heading off on a side quest.
Traversal & Movement
SEVEN: THE DAYS LONG GONE takes the traditional 3D isometric RPG and reinvents it with a climbing and movement system unique to the genre. What defines a master thief is movement, and Teriel can climb over walls, leap over chasms, slip through windows, grab hold of ledges, roll to evade projectiles, jump over charging enemies, or slide into enemies. Teriel can also pick locks, hack electronics, and keep to the shadows to avoid detection.
