A September 24 release, plus a new Lords of the End Times trailer

Creative Assembly previously framed Lords of the End Times as a summer release, but the studio has now pinned down an exact window. The expansion will debut on September 24, with a new trailer released alongside the announcement.

In the video, the spotlight is placed on the “fourth and final” playable lord, described as the biggest among the studio’s DLC offerings in the series’ 10-year history. The trailer centers on his role and combat style, setting the tone for how the expansion’s new lord content will play out.

Thanquol arrives as the Scruten clan’s commander

Players will be able to command Thanquol, the leader of the Scruten clan. His gameplay identity is built around his companion Warp-rat, Wrenching (Łamignat), who travels with him as he pushes through the battlefield.

Thanquol’s approach to war is framed around unleashing plague- and destruction-themed magic—leaving chaos and devastation in his wake. Alongside his spellcasting, he can recruit units across the Skaven roster, including a legendary character: Skreech, the King of Rats.

The full lord roster included in the expansion

Beyond Thanquol, Lords of the End Times adds additional lords to Total War: Warhammer 3:

2. The Glott brothers, who fight with support from Chaos Warriors and Nurgle demons.
3. Boris Todbringer, the Elector Count, focused on protecting the Empire from being completely destroyed.
