Mod Manager & New Launch Options
CREATIVE ASSEMBLY
Hey folks,
For those of you jumping into some Total War: WARHAMMER II today, you may notice a small update as we’ve just expanded our Mod Manager Early Access to include Warhammer II.

From today, when you launch WH2 on Steam, you’ll now be given the option to play the game via the original launcher, via the Early Access Mod Manager, or by booting straight into the game. Our goal is to make playing Warhammer II with mods an easier, more streamlined process, so you can spend less time organising your mods and more time in the game!
You can read more on how the Mod Manager works in our original blog post from November 2025, as well as any improvements since then over in the Mod Manager forums. The forums are also the ideal palce to share your thoughts on the Mod Manager itself, both positive and negative, to help us make further improvements in the future.
Thanks, and enjoy!
— Steve, and the Total War Mod Manager Team
