Total War Battles: Kingdoms is a F2P realm-building strategy game coming to tablets

Total War Battles: Kingdoms is SEGA and Creative Assembly's follow-up to the Gold Award-winning Total War Battles: Shogun.

Announced today, Kingdoms is to be a free-to-play "persistent-world strategy" game. This means that you'll be building a kingdom while also overseeing large-scale tactical battles.

To make it as a supreme rule, you'll want to seek help from neighboring kingdoms when either being attacked, or looking to attack others.

And, yes, some of these other kingdoms will be watched over by other online players. Which means you can acquire their help and then betray them like the war dog you no doubt are.

Kingdoms is set during the 10th century, emerging from the Dark Ages into a time of war and chaos as nations divide and multiple armies form.

You can apply to be a part of the closed beta on PC right now on the game's website.

Total War Battles: Kingdoms will be coming to tablets, as well as Windows and Mac.
