Yes, the min and rec specs for Mortal Empires will be the same as Warhammer II. Is it the same min/rec spec as WARHAMMER II? Mortal Empires is a free downloadable content pack that you can access from Total War: WARHAMMER II’s DLC list on Steam. It enables players to embark on new campaigns as any playable Legendary Lord they own from both games and any owned DLC. This beta launch and the immediate months following it are being deemed 'Phase 1' of Immortal Empires, but the mode won't be finalized for years to come.Mortal Empires is a grand-scale downloadable campaign set across a massive new campaign map, free for owners of both Total War: WARHAMMER and Total War: WARHAMMER II. Bugs, balancing issues, and other relevant feedback can and should be shared with Creative Assembly. Once the game mode launches, the developers are asking that players (respectfully) give feedback.

Instead, Immortal Empires will be available at launch for everyone. You won't have to opt-in or sign up for something to play it. Total War: Warhammer 3 Immortal Empires will feature the beta tag until the developers feel it no longer applies, but this won't affect how it's accessed. Total War: Warhammer and Total War: Warhammer 2 both had extensive post-launch support, and Total War: Warhammer 3 shouldn't be any different. These will take time, and when combined with the extensive post-launch DLC outlined in the roadmap for Total War: Warhammer 3.

In particular, the developers have highlighted issues with how Corruption works, lighting quality on maps from the first two games, and balancing factions across the three games to ensure there's a generally consistent playing field. Creative Assembly says that Immortal Empires will be 'content complete' at launch, but that there are countless small things that will take time to fix. The reason for this is that the developers want to provide Immortal Empires to fans as quickly as possible, but are also blunt about just how complicated this undertaking is. Immortal Empires is launching in an open beta format.
