Game studio Creative Assembly has confirmed that the free Dynasties update for Total War: Pharaoh will be released on July 25. The update will bring new content to the game for all players, including four new major factions, 25 minor factions, 168 new cities and villages, over 150 new and revamped units, and a considerable map expansion. Creative Assembly said the Dynasties add-on won't be accessible inside Total War: Pharaoh. Instead, owners of the base game will automatically receive Total War: Pharaoh - Dynasties as a separate edition of the game in their digital library.
