Total War: WARHAMMER II

Total War: WARHAMMER II is rated T for Teen by the ESRB with Alcohol Reference, Blood, Mild Language, Mild Suggestive Themes, and Violence. This is a real-time strategy game, based on the Warhammer universe, in which players fight for supremacy in a fantastical world. Players follow a storyline while commanding races and factions (e.g., elves, lizard men) and engaging in diplomacy. From a top-down perspective, players arrange armies and fantasy creatures on the battlefield, giving commands and observing combat. Battles are highlighted by cries of pain, impact sounds, and depictions of bodies scattered on the battlefield. Cutscenes depict characters stalked and stabbed by assassins, with splashes of pink blood on the screen. Some creatures are depicted with bloody wounds during gameplay. The dialogue occasionally references suggestive material (e.g., “Ah, but the truth is like an expensive wh*re, Jerek. She comes in many dresses and will bend over for any with the money to pamper her”; “[A] man born of dock wh*res, yet calls himself a 'prince'”). Dialogue also references wine, ale, grog, and binge-drinking (e.g., “The favourite dwarf pastime is drinking. 'Gorog' is Khazalid for binge-drinking...”); one cutscene also depicts poisoned wine splashing from a goblet. The words “arse” and “bastard” appear in dialogue.
