The pack adds the Ogre Kingdoms and their two legendary lords, Greasus Goldtooth and Skrag the Slaughterer, to the grand campaign, allowing players to “lead an army of colossal warriors and primeval monsters in search of loot, gold, and meat for their insatiable bellies. ”

While the Ogre Kingdoms Early Adoption Bonus is free when purchased from retailers, Xbox Game Pass subscribers will not automatically gain access to the pack at launch.

The next game in the series adds Grand Cathay to the mix, an empire in Warhammer lore that has never been seen on the table, let alone in a video game. Opposing them and the Kislevs will be the forces of Chaos, including those that follow the god of change himself, Tzeentch. You can see them in the trailer below:
