Total War: MEDIEVAL II – Coming to iOS & Android April 7th!

SEGA has just announced the date, when one of their classic X4 games, Total War: Medieval II, will be available for mobile devices. The release date for iOS and Android will be on April 7, and the game will be ported by Feral Games, a specialist in ports to various operating systems.

How the heck would you manage your army and empire on a phone screen? I can see how this works for Civ, but not in real time battle where you need a good overview.

I'm also not sure why I'd want to try to control Medieval II armies on a phone screen when I can play it on my computer via Steam or the original CDs that I still have.

But I'm glad they haven't forgotten Medieval entirely. Now if only they'd announce Medieval III: Total War, that would be a game I would be interested in.

Agreed. I'd also be interested in Empire 2: Total War.

I got this, more out curiosity than anything else, I must say it handles surprisingly well, it is true of course that a phone screen is much too small to play for any length of time, but it should be fine for a large tablet, for example.

So I now have a portable French campaign that I can take wherever I go, will probably never finish it, but it is nice to have, for when I get locked in an elevator, or something

M3… all TW fans screaming for it but i can‘t agree. For me the setting of the game is really important, and medieval Europe with knights and such is completely not interesting for me… but that‘s just me.

I would like to see a new engine actually, where campaign maps are editable for the modders out there. And then, the announcement of Shogun 3 or Rome 3.

I'm afraid that what we need is another studio to restart the genre.

There's absolutely no chance whatsoever of any good TW installment being produced by Creative Assembly at this point. That studio is as good as dead.
TW Shogun 2 (and especially FoTS) is one my favourite games of all times, but if a TW Shogun 3 were announced today, it'd still be a hard pass.
