Description
In Total War: PHARAOH immerse yourself in ancient Egypt at the zenith of its power and experience the dramatic events that threaten its destruction. With dynamic real-time battles and incredible turn-based empire management, will you rise to become Egypt’s last great Pharaoh, or a conquering Great King of the Hittites? Or will you take command of the Sea Peoples’ bloodthirsty hordes and drive the Bronze Age Collapse?
With the Bronze Age Collapse looming and the dark sails of the Sea Peoples filling the horizon the people of Egypt cry out for a new leader. Many desire the power of the throne, but the path to becoming Pharaoh is a perilous one. Unearth a breathtakingly vibrant recreation of the Bronze Age Collapse as you battle societal disarray, face natural disasters and fight to protect your people against waves of invaders.
Enemy armies aren’t the only challenges to overcome on the battlefield. Lead your soldiers through sudden and dramatic shifts in weather, such as torrential rain and sandstorms, and witness the tides of battle turn as it directly impacts the surrounding terrain. Beware the threat of fire too, as battles can become engulfed in flames, striking and spreading across the battlefield as it burns forests and damages the foundations of enemy settlements.
Prove your legitimacy to become Pharaoh, Great King of the Hittites, or command the invasion of the Sea Peoples, and expand your growing empire on a campaign map that spans the rich cultural hubs of Egypt, Canaan and Anatolia. With a choice of ten Faction Leaders, step into their unique playstyles and take charge of diverse unit rosters. Whether you’re charming the courts as a peerless diplomat, charging into battle as an unwavering commander or causing chaos as a fearless warlord, become a leader that history will remember.
On your journey to becoming Pharaoh, uncover a beautifully lush and vibrant recreation of ancient Egypt at the height of its power. From the fertile banks of the river Nile to the windswept, arid deserts of the Sinai Peninsula and the mountainous crags of ancient Anatolia, this magnificent visual reimagining brings the beauty and brutality of Egypt’s most tumultuous era to life.
With a brand-new Campaign Customisation feature, no two campaigns will ever feel the same. Determine how you play with an extended range of campaign customisation options, such as random starting positions for all factions, detailed resource settings, the ability to toy with natural disasters and much more. With an abundance of options, stack the odds against yourself for an added challenge or become an unmatched power to breeze your way to victory.

Watch out. This game is region locked (not sure which one as it does not say). Bought the game in Australia and tried to redeem and it stated that it was not available in my country. Hopefully will be refunded soon.

I bought the game here in Australia and it was region locked. I received my refund, which was very much appreciated...
If only I had known I wouldn't have ordered it in the first place. But that's ok, it worked out...

if a key is going to be region locked it should say it on its purchase page and it should specify what region it is locked to so people don't go through the process I just did. in the end the issue was resolved quick thanks to fast customer service on the website but now hopefully people avoid making the same mistake I did.
- got the key fast
- fast response from customer service got it in just a few minutes after requesting the refund.
- didn't say it was a region locked key and what region for that matter.
- there is not enough information on the product page.

Told by customer Support region lock is for ****EUROPE ONLY****REGION LOCK******, Not redeemable in United States of America.. This was seriously disappointing...
If only I had known what country this game is locked to I would not have wasted my time, but seeing the other reviews had mentioned only australia I decided to give it a try... So do not try redeeming in USA because it is locked from this region.

Dont buy this game if you expect immersive battles like in older games rome 2, atilla, shogun 2 etc. This is not immersive its arcade game.
Campaign is okay, but battles are pathetic aand boring. Every unit feel like plastic toy, there no sense of immersion, atmospheric and weight.
Max price for this game should be 5£.
Its that bad!

- Map designs
- Economy - more than just gold
- Interesting campaign events
- Arcade boring battles
- More RPG than Tactical Strategy Game
- Low Factions variety
