Creative Assembly is set to release Total War: Warhammer 40,000 on consoles, challenging the belief that controller support is incompatible with real-time strategy (RTS) gameplay. Dave Petry, the battle product owner, stated that controllers are an accessibility tool that can enhance player engagement. The studio has prior experience with console RTS games, having co-developed Halo Wars 2, which successfully integrated controller support. Total War: Warhammer 40,000 will focus on real-time battles rather than traditional building and technology management, and Petry is optimistic about creating a satisfying experience for players using controllers.

Microsoft has introduced its Sovereign Cloud to address these concerns, but apprehensions remain among governments in Switzerland, Germany, and France regarding data sovereignty.

Game of Thrones: War for Westeros is an RTS game set to release in 2027, inspired by HBO's series. The game revisits the struggle for the Iron Throne, allowing players to command characters like Kit Harington's Jon Snow and listen to narration by Charles Dance. Gameplay involves constructing buildings, generating resources, training troops, and capturing territories, but it primarily features standard infantry units like spearmen and swordsmen. Only two factions, the Starks and Lannisters, are available in the preview, with the Starks able to deploy direwolves and the Lannisters focusing on economic strategies. The game lacks the excitement and complexity found in other RTS titles, feeling straightforward and uninspired, with gameplay that does not leverage the source material's strengths.
