SEGA has officially released the first Character Pack for Total War: WARHAMMER III, titled “Bhashiva & The Tiger Warriors,” now available on PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and the Microsoft Store.
Alongside the new DLC launch, the publisher has also kicked off a limited-time free weekend and a major franchise sale, making this one of the biggest entry points yet for new and returning strategy fans.
New Character Pack Expands Grand Cathay Roster
The “Bhashiva & The Tiger Warriors” Character Pack introduces a new playable faction addition to the Grand Cathay roster in Total War: WARHAMMER III. The DLC focuses on expanding strategic options for players who enjoy the faction’s disciplined, harmony-driven playstyle.
In addition, SEGA has bundled the new content into a special limited-time offer called the Total War: WARHAMMER III Grand Cathay Collection. This bundle includes the Bhashiva Character Pack alongside the popular Legendary Lord Yuan Bo, giving players a more complete Grand Cathay experience in a single purchase.
However, the bundle is only available until May 29, 2026, and it cannot be purchased by players who already own Yuan Bo.
Total War: WARHAMMER III Free Weekend Now Live
To celebrate the launch, SEGA has also made Total War: WARHAMMER III available for a free weekend on Steam until May 25, 2026. During this period, players can experience the full game at no cost, including its large-scale tactical battles and faction management systems.
This initiative is designed to introduce new players to the franchise while also giving returning fans a chance to revisit the campaign ahead of the new content release.
Biggest Discount Yet as Part of WARHAMMER SKULLS 2026
As part of the ongoing WARHAMMER SKULLS 2026 promotion, Total War: WARHAMMER III is also receiving its largest discount to date, with an 85 percent price reduction across supported platforms.
Players who enjoy the free weekend can continue their campaign by purchasing the game at a significantly reduced price. This makes the current promotion one of the most aggressive offers in the series’ history.
Limited-Time Bundle Offers Extra Value for Grand Cathay Fans
SEGA has also introduced the Grand Cathay Collection bundle, which combines the new Bhashiva Character Pack with Yuan Bo at a 75 percent discounted value compared to purchasing content separately.
This bundle is positioned as a complete package for players who want to fully explore Grand Cathay’s roster and strategic depth. However, SEGA has confirmed that players who already own Yuan Bo will not be eligible to purchase this bundle.
A Major Push for Total War Fans
With a new Character Pack, a free weekend, and the biggest franchise discount ever offered, Total War: WARHAMMER III is currently at the center of a major promotional push.
As SEGA and Creative Assembly continue to expand the game’s post-launch content, this latest release reinforces their long-term commitment to supporting the Total War: WARHAMMER series with new factions, characters, and gameplay depth.
