Total War: Rome 2 announces first campaign expansion Caesar in Gaul

Since Total War: Rome II has been released, we have seen minor DLC packs being released; some for a low cost and others for free. The good folk at Creative Assemble has decided that it is officially the time to release the first campaign expansion since launch. This new DLC will is called Caesar in Gaul. In this new content, you’ll take part in the Gaul and Roman conflict focusing on the south coast of Britannia.

While getting down and dirty in all out Gaul war, you’ll have the option to play as the Gallic Arverni, the Germanic Suebi, the Belgic Nervii, and Roman factions. Due to the focus on Britannia, there will be a brand new campaign map with 18 provinces. The feature that stands out to me though is the 24 turn years packed with seasons; there is a season, turn, turn, turn.

“We’ve released a number of DLC packs and free content updates for ROME II, but this is our most substantial so far”, said Mike Simpson, Creative Director of the Total War series. “We’ve always planned to focus more closely on some of the key conflicts of the ancient world, and Caesar’s war in Gaul is the ideal place to start. We’ve also improved the game considerably since launch, and that process continues as we move onto substantial feature and gameplay improvements.”

This DLC is only ten days away, releasing December 12th 2013. You’ll be able to pick this up via steam for $14.99.
