Game company SEGA just announced that PC video game A Total War Saga: Troy will offer the Amazons DLC for free for a limited time.
SEGA stated that the Amazons Hero Pack will be free-to-keep if claimed from Sept. 24 until Oct. 8. It will introduce two of the fiercest female heroes of the game.
Take on the role of Hippolyta, queen of the Amazons, or her fierce warrior-queen sister Penthesilea and carve out a new legacy for your tribes. Both characters welcome new and unique campaigns, as well as a diverse host of features including the first female-only Total War army roster and the first horde faction for A Total War Saga: TROY.
As Hippolyta, players can capture sacred regions to gather Amazon Treasures and unlock Amazon Kingdom milestones to rank up your units, improve diplomatic deals and instantly complete Royal Decrees. As Penthesilea, with a horde army at your side, roam the world and capture new settlements. Each settlement grants you unique War Spoils, which you can use to boost your campaign.
