Lords, Ladies, Saint Protectors!

Total War Battles: KINGDOM is changing!

We will very shortly be rolling out an update that will bring Total War Battles: KINGDOM to Beta version 0.3. Since the Open Beta we’ve already seen the game grow and develop, but one thing that has remained constant is the fantastic feedback and suggestions we’ve received from you, the players.

This version update brings with it significant gameplay changes, many of which are in direct response to player feedback. Due to the nature of these changes, it will be necessary to reset account progress. Although this is something we’ve said wouldn’t happen again, we believe it’s worth it, in order to make the game as enjoyable as possible.

We want Total War Battles: KINGDOM to be the very best it can be. In order to achieve this we looked at lots of ideas from devs and players alike and the list we came up with meant we’d have to change the gameplay to an extent that simply could not be implemented without resetting player’s realms. This will be the last account reset.

The main changes this update brings are:

- The realm has been changed making it easier to navigate and making space management more fun and challenging.
- Timers have been reduced dramatically to allow for longer play sessions.
- The water management system has been overhauled to be more reactive, making it much easier to recover from flooding.
- All buildings now receive neighbour bonuses from other buildings, meaning you’ll want to optimise your towns differently to foster different playstyles.
- Quarry gameplay has been redesigned to make finding deposits more of a challenge, with much greater rewards when you do find them.
- And much, much more… an exhaustive changelist will be published once the new version is deployed.


We apologise for the inconvenience. We will return all Gold purchased to your account, and as a thank you for your continued support we’ll add an extra 20%. The Gold will be credited to your account once the new version is live. We’ll also publish a code for 250 Gold that can be redeemed by all players, regardless of whether you made an in-game purchase or not.

If you’d prefer to have money refunded to your Steam Wallet rather than your Gold returned, we’re happy to do this for 14 days after the release of 0.3 – simply contact customer support and they’ll be able to help you out https://support.sega.co.uk/hc/en-gb/categories/200307381

For additional info on refunds, and the update in general, please see the FAQs: http://wiki.totalwar.com/w/Total_War_Battles:_Kingdom_Beta_Version_0.3_Update_FAQ

In the meantime, as accounts will be reset and all purchased Gold returned, we’ve decided to suspend the Gold Shop temporarily leading up to the update. We’ll bring it back online with the deployment of version 0.3.

Many thanks and may your reign be long and prosperous!

The Kingdom Team
