Empire: Total War - The Soundtrack will be released on June 30th to retail outlets through Sumthing Else Music Works, and will be available for digital download on Sumthing Digital and iTunes.

Empire: Total War - The Soundtrack features the epic orchestral score composed by Richard Beddow (Viking: Battle For Asgard), Richard Birdsall, Walter Nair, Simon Ravn and performed by The Slovak National Symphony Orchestra at the Slovak Radio Concert Hall in Bratislava. The score was orchestrated and conducted by Nic Raine (Viking: Battle For Asgard) and the soundtrack was produced by lead composer Richard Beddow.

"Undertaking the challenge of the music production for Empire: Total War was no simple task," said composer Richard Beddow. "The game needed music to convey its size and breadth, covering the various countries at war, delicately accompanying campaign gameplay and underpinning the various cinematics and events in the game."

Empire: Total War is set in the 18th century, a turbulent era that is the most requested by Total War's loyal fan base and a period alive with global conflict, revolutionary fervor and technological advances. With themes such as the Industrial Revolution, America's struggle for independence, the race to control Eastern trade routes and the globalization of war on land and sea, Empire: Total War delivers one of the richest and most dynamic PC RTS game experiences of all time.

Thanks,

Hurray, hope it is not a standalone game.....if to pay minimum for the DLC is okay too...

Someone managed to summarise certain bits:

Well yesterday I recieved a copy of my mensuel gaming magazine. It featured a preview of a TW game. Napoleon total war! There weren't many details, and I couldn't quite work out if the sp was restricted to playing the French. Some misc info;

- They reworking the battle gameplay which too "spartan" like in their opinion.

- The graphics have been improved quite signifianctly.

- Napoleon will be present on the battle field and will be compairable to "super general".

- CA are putting a particular emphasis on multiplayer this time around, new features include : a new avatar system; new steam acheivements; a uniform editor; and vocal order recognition.

Unfortunatly I can't provide anyscans of images since I don't have a scanner, plus the mag is French so a high number of you won't understand anything. I think I've mentionned the bulk of the new features included in the article.

The mp revamp sounds quite exciting.
