Previously, you had to own all three Total War: WARHAMMER games to access Immortal Empires. However, Immortal Empires is now available to all WARHAMMER III owners, regardless of whether they own the other titles.There are several races available in Immortal Empires that are unlocked if you own Total War: WARHAMMER, Total War: WARHAMMER II or the numerous DLC released for both titles. These purchases are not required to play Immortal Empires, but are required to unlock some of the playable races and Lords.New players may wish to play through the previous entries in the Total War: Warhammer series first to experience what they have to offer (as the games are certainly still worth playing), but it's ultimately not necessary – and in some cases could even be detrimental.
Can I play Warhammer 3 without Warhammer 2 : all the races from the previous games will be playable in that big map. without the previous games you will only have the warhammer 3 race. as far as i am aware all these races will be unplayable in warhammer 3 unless you own the previous games/dlc.
Do I need both Total War Warhammers installed
Now you need both game one and game two however you can still run into issues with the activation. An important note you do not need total war warhammer the first game installed to play mortal empires
Do I need all Total War games : No, you only need to have Warhammer III installed to be able to play the Immortal Empires campaign (which includes all the WH I and WH II factions). If you really want to play the game-specific unique campaigns though, you will need to download and play them separately.
If you looking for immortal then you only need game 3 installed and the other 2 games in your library.
Short answer, yes. Further explanation: The immortal empires campaign combines content from all 3 games. They added game 1 and 2 DLC to game 3 so that you can buy and use said DLC without having to buy game 1 and 2. If you for whatever reason don't want the content in said base games but do want the DLC.
Should I start with Total Warhammer 2 or 3
Yeah total war warhammer 2 is the best choice for a starter. That said if you want to play the Mortal Empires Campaign in TWW2 then you need to own TWW1(no need to own DLC as they are optional). The same can be said for the Immortal Empires Campaign in TWW3 you need both TWW1+2.If you want a polished well-fleshed out experience, go for WH2. If you want utter chaos and unadulterated bugs, glitches and crashes that'll likely never be addressed by CA, mixed with a ton of random fun you can't have in WH2, go for WH3. WH3 is more resource-heavy on your machine, keep that in mind.Yeah total war warhammer 2 is the best choice for a starter.
