You'll choose the hero to lead your armies, from the seemingly invincible Achilles to the prideful King of Mycenae, Agamemnon, to Paris, the Prince of Troy, whose actions and obsessions instigated the Trojan War to begin with. The half-man, half-beast Minotaur is no less frightening as an ax-wielding brute of a man wearing the fur and head of a bull. For instance, instead of sirens luring sailors to their doom with an irresistible song sung at the rocky shores, it's a troop of sultry women seducing hapless soldiers and leading them into a nearby ambush. Creatures of myth are replaced with real-world units that could have served as the basis for Homer's romanticized stories. These are housed in a triple gatefold sleeve with an additional insert.The premise behind A TOTAL WAR SAGA: TROY is "What if the stories of myth were based on reality?" The game revisits the tale of the 20-year war between the kingdoms of Troy and Mycenaean Greece as it's told in Homer's Iliad, but reimagines it as events that might actually have taken place.

Creative Assembly's audio director and lead composer Richard Beddow created a vibrant, stylised fusion of elements from the Mediterranean, Balkan, North African, and Eastern cultures. With the combined goal of depicting the herculean battles of the Bronze Age that bring immortal fame ( kleos), and to pay respect ( timē) to the gods, the nature and the fallen, the sound of the Ancient Aegean is reimagined for a modern game-playing audience. Troy's score comprises cinematic soundscapes, ambient washes, pulsing grooves, and basslines. Physical editions will be available from the April of 2022. Additionally, all purchases through the Laced Records store will include a free digital download code for the soundtrack on Steam. Creative Assembly have also teamed up with Laced Records to release the original soundtrack on double CD and triple vinyl.
