It’s open beta season for Creative Assembly’s free-to-play strategy Total War Battles: KINGDOM. We control medieval armies in the 10th century as mankind claws its way out of the Dark Ages.
New cities can be raised along with fresh-faced armies to march off to victory, hopefully. It’s a cross-platform Total War that’s coming to Mac and tablets soon, but is now in open beta on PC.
As this is a free-to-play title there will of course be in-game purchases, and the smallest starts at $4.99 for a Stack of Gold worth 450, and that can get way out of hand at $99.99 for the Chest of Gold worth 12000. This Gold can be earned in-game, albeit at a trickle no doubt.
Check the official Total War Wiki for more pricing.
Total War Battles: KINGDOM is available to play on PC through Steam.
