Much like the base game,Omens of Destructionwill be available via Steam, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store. The Skulltaker, Gorbad, and Golgfag add-ons have already received separate listings on Steam, suggesting that they will be sold individually. Sega hasn’t yet shared any concrete price tags, but if itspreviousTotal War: Warhammer 3expansionsare any indication, theOmens of Destructionpacks will plausibly retail for around $10 a piece. It’s currently unclear whether there will be a default discount for buying them together.
Omens of Destructionwill debut alongsideTotal War: Warhammer 3Update 6.0, which will include a new free Legendary Lord in the form of Arbaal the Undefeated for Daemons of Khorne. As per usual, both Arbaal and the upcoming trio of paid Legendary Lords promise to introduce new gameplay dynamics catering to specific playstyles.
