Total War is going all the way back to the Bronze Age in this month's cover star, A Total War Saga: Troy. With it, Creative Assembly Sofia aims to blend history and mythology together as the Greeks and Trojans fight over honour and a kidnapped queen. You won't see a Trojan Horse, but you will be able to recruit a guy who thinks he's a minotaur.
Elsewhere, Wes Fenlon takes a look at retro gaming in Japan and how people are preserving gaming's past, while Tom Senior finds out how Motion Twin, developer of Dead Cells, plans to follow up the brilliant roguelike.
We're spoiling you with previews this month thanks to Gamescom.
