With a very strong start being the most pre-ordered Total War game of all time and breaking the IP’s concurrent player record on Steam, Total War: Three Kingdoms comes to fans in a flurry of grinding steel and war. And much of this success is because of China, given the historical depiction in such a major game and China just been awesome consumers of gaming in general.
We know that Total War has had a big following in China for a great many years. It’s just now that we’re starting to reach those guys with our products, and they’re putting money down and engaging with us much more. With Three Kingdom, that Romance of the Three Kingdoms subject matter is obviously doing a lot to help us along with that.
