#FeralInteractive are likely preparing to release Medieval II: Total War on Linux, but yesterday, the Mac version launched and somehow #news #slipped that the game is out on Mac and Linux, but that’s not the case.
Needless to say Linux Game News reached out to Feral Interactive, but no reply. So we will update this post if Feral confirm what is going on or if we can expect a Linux release. Medieval II: Total War launched on the Mac app store today as you can see below:
However, here is where things get interesting from a users response on Twitter:
Obviously something is in the works. While we do not know what, there does appear to be something coming about for Linux gamers, likely the same Medieval II: Total War Collection.
Press Details
Feral Interactive announced today that Medieval II: Total War™ Collection is out now for Mac via the Mac App Store. Developed by Creative Assembly and published by SEGA for Windows, Medieval II: Total War has received a wealth of critical praise since its original release in 2006 for its immense scale and immersive Middle Ages setting.
Medieval II: Total War™ Collection combines thrilling real-time battles and sophisticated turn-based strategy in a vast campaign that spans five centuries and encompasses the Crusades, the spread of plague and the proliferation of gunpowder. As a warrior king, players will lead one of 17 factions to supremacy in the medieval world with an artful mix of diplomacy, commerce and war.
On the campaign map, players will build their empire’s infrastructure, cities and trade routes, then master the art of diplomacy to disarm enemies, empower allies and gain the favour of the Pope. On the battlefield, they will conduct siege warfare, command thundering cavalry charges and lead their armies into epic clashes that will bring entire kingdoms to their knees.
The Medieval II: Total War Collection contains the Kingdoms expansion, which includes four standalone campaigns: Discovery of the Americas, Britannia, Crusades, and the Teutonic Campaign.
A mini-site dedicated to the game is now online and a trailer is available here. In the mean time, stay tuned.
