“In a land where honor flows from the edge of a blade, only one lord can rule Japan.”
In 2011, Creative Assembly returned strategy fans to the heart of feudal Japan with Total War: Shogun 2, a world where blood, honor, and samurai tactics held absolute power.
Be a Shogun, Not a Soldier
During the Sengoku period of civil war, you step into the role of a powerful daimyo—leader of a clan vying for the ultimate prize: the Shogunate. Commanding armies is only the beginning; you must combine Zen philosophy, clever politics, and a sharpened blade to claim supremacy.
Legendary Features of Shogun 2
- Epic Battles: Fight in mountains, rice fields, and castles with unmatched tactical command
- Realistic Siege Warfare: Hundreds of soldiers clashing in thrilling, strategic fort assaults
- Loyalty and Honor System: Generals can die with honor—or betray you
- Detailed Map of Japan: From Kyushu to Honshu, the fate of the islands is in your hands
- Legendary AI: Opponents think, strategize, and wait for you to make a mistake
Your Choice: Unity, Betrayal, or Victory
In Total War: Shogun 2, one question defines your legacy:
Can you survive enemies, nature, gods, and even your own family?
Becoming a Shogun is not easy—but becoming a legend is worth every battle.
