Creative Assembly has now officially been making Total War games for 25 years. It was in June 2000 that the UK-based studio put forth Shogun: Total War for PC, with Electronic Arts publishing the ambitious project. With a quarter of a century now behind the series, the developer is now looking towards the "next era" of Total War.
The studio will host its first-ever Total War showcase in December 2025, which is described as a "flagship video presentation unveiling what’s next for the franchise." Creative Assembly said that the showcase will have announcements for new games as well as content for existing titles, with developer commentary also happening regarding the future of the series.
"We’re honoured and humbled to be one of the few video games that get the chance to celebrate such a huge milestone, and we want to thank colleagues past and present, as well as our fans for all the support," says Total War vice president Roger Collum. "2025 marks an exciting new era for the franchise as we reveal what’s next for Total War, and we can’t wait to celebrate throughout the year with everyone."

Prior to the showcase, Creative Assembly will be hosting retrospective video interviews, developer livestreams, and more behind-the-scenes content regarding the series starting this August. There will also be multiplayer tournaments for fans, giveaways, Q&A sessions with developers, mod spotlights, and more events happening during this period.
As the studio celebrates the occasion, a massive Total War historical games sale has just gone live on Steam. This has discounts of up to 75% across everything from the original Shogun: Total War to the latest entry, Total War: PHARAOH. The discounts will last until June 26.
