Total War: ROME II Emperor Edition. Emperor Edition collects together all free content to date, which includes wide-ranging revisions, additions to game features and adds a brand new Campaign Pack expansion, ‘Imperator Augustus’.

We test the game at 1080p with the image quality settings at the maximum – ‘EXTREME'. Unless we drop image quality settings noticeably, this game needs more powerful hardware to run smoothly at 1440p.

The Asus GTX960 Strix OC manages to hold smooth frame rates (above 25fps) throughout this test, although ideally if you want a solid 30fps+ you would need to pay a little extra money for a more powerful solution such as the GTX770OC, or R9 290.
