But yep, this only counts for Steam owners. If you already have the original on Steam, you'll be able to pick up Remastered with a 50% discount until May 31st. Total War Rome: Remastered is due out on Steam on the 29th of April, priced at £25/€30/$30. The FAQ reels off other new features including Merchant agents, 16 extra playable factions, campaign map overlays, improved diplomacy, Steam Workshop mod support, redesigned UI, a redesigned tutorial, cross-platform multiplayer between the Windows, Mac, and Linux versions, and more. I've just checked old screenshots and ooft yep, this seems an improvement. The remaster certainly doesn't match the look of modern Total War games, but maybe is the level of fidelity Rome has in my memories - which always are better than a game actually was.
This new version is spruced up to play nice with modern high and ultrawide resolutions, and Creative Assembly say it has "overhauled environment, battlefield, and character models."
The remaster is being handled by Feral Interactive, who've previously done Mac and Linux ports of many Total War games. A lot like Rome: Total War, Total War: Rome will be a strategy game set in the centuries leading up to Rome's imperial period, with the Barbarian Invasion and Alexander expansions included too.
