Set between 1080 and 1503, one of the most formative and fractious periods in European history, Medieval 2: Total War plunges you into a turbulent era of religious conflict, brutal hand-to-hand warfare and political cunning. Battle will rage across Europe, the Middle East and eventually the New World as you encounter the mysterious Aztecs. A massively upgraded graphics engine sees individuals' faces and armour realised amidst the blood-soaked chaos of massed battle, while all-new combat animations bring every do-or-die struggle to life.

Unprecedented Scale - Up to 10,000 independent units wage war on screen at once in an epic single-player campaign spanning 500 years and three continents. Medieval 2: Total War is unmatched in ambition and scope. Breath-Taking Graphics - A spectacular 3D graphics engine capable of presenting thousands of individual soldiers animated in brutal detail. All-new Multiplayer System - Testing your mastery of strategy against friends is now easier than ever, and there's a brand new multiplayer game mode in which to crush your enemies. Bigger, Better - Over 200 new unique units, an array of new gameplay challenges, increased focus on the roles of religion, unique settlements reflective of each faction and arduous siege warfare.
