This weekend, the developer is offering up something special for Steam users. Anyone on Steam will get a free weekend of Total War. Which Total War? Abotu half a dozen of them!

From now until 1PM PT on Sunday, June 28th, Steam users will be able to play through many of the Total War games available. This includes the recently-released Total War: Attila, as well as Total War: Rome II, Total War: Shogun 2 (and the Fall of the Samurai expansion), Empire: Total War, Napoleon: Total War, and Medieval II: Total War. With the exception of Attila, all of the aforementioned Total War games will also be on sale, as will their DLC packs.

To celebrate this news, Total War: Attila is getting a new campaign pack called The Last Roman, along with a free playable faction called the Suebi. This will take players onto a new campaign map, where they'll look to retake the former Western Roman Empire. The trailer for this new campaign can be seen below.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
