TOTAL WAR WARHAMMER 3 PATCH 1.1 RELEASE DATE – HERE’S WHEN THE FIRST MAJOR UPDATE MIGHT LAUNCH
Total War is out now, keeping us busy with its impressive roster and challenging campaign. Many players are becoming familiar with the game’s finer points and wondering when patch1.1 will be released.
Creative Assembly has been busy since Total War: Warhammer 3 was launched in February. They have worked on hotfixes to address some of the minor issues. Patch 1.1 will have a much wider scope, with the update aiming at the Realms of Chaos campaign mechanics and faction balance.
We knew that it was coming for quite some time, but Total War: Warhammer III’s update 1.1 was only announced slightly more detail by the developer when he delayed patch 1.0.2. After the delayed hotfix launches in the week of March 14, we will hear more about the first major update and its release date.
Similar updates have been published for the two previous games in the trilogy around one month after they were released. Warhammer III will not be able to do that because its second hotfix was launched within a month of its one-month anniversary.
Creative Assembly announced on March 18 that Warhammer III’s patch 1.1.1 would launch in April.

While the developer did not reveal the exact date of Total War: Warhammer III patch 1.1’s release, it did share some details on its contents on March 10. It provided a more detailed list of what we could expect a week later.
Negative Realm traits will cut their strength by 50% during the Realm of Chaos campaign. They will also vanish after a Realm’s survival fight and will not affect Daemon Legendary Lords in the Realm where their patron god is.
The Protection chain buildings – which were previously used to remove the negative traits – will enable players to stop rifts opening in the provinces they are built.
Factions will get the first set balance changes, while infantry responsiveness will improve. The Ogre Kingdoms will be the first to receive “significant adjustments to their units because of how they are overperformers in Domination and ranked matchmaking.
These are just a few of the other bug fixes that Total War: Warhammer 3’s patch 1.1 will include. You can find the complete list at the link above.
