As part of an experiment coordinated by Creative Assembly and the Epic Games Store, more than 7.5 million people claimed a free copy of A Total War Saga: Troy.
The game was made available for free for the first 24 hours after launch, sparking an insatiable interest in the title.
Rob Bartholomew, Chief Product Officer for Creative Assembly, released the following statement in a press release:
We were optimistic but we couldn’t have predicted this level of excitement. It’s been incredible to work with Epic on giving this brand new release away for free. Now we get to welcome so many strategy players – new and old – to experience this incredible Saga. We’re very happy.
The window for claiming your free copy has since slammed shut, so if you want a slice of this Trojan War battle game, you’ll have to pay full price. The PC-exclusive title is available on the Epic Games Store, and it will be coming to Steam in 2021.
