With the first week of Total War: WARHAMMER III behind us, we’re continuing our work with the community to identify the most pressing issues as the team prepares, tests, and packages solutions in these upcoming builds. To catch up on our upcoming release plans, you can read our recent post on the topic here:

PATCH 1.0.1

• Fixed an issue where the multiplayer lobby would refresh too quickly, preventing players from being able to select and join a room.
• Fixed an issue which prevented invites to a multiplayer lobby from working properly.
• The game now runs in DirectX 11 compatibility mode for all users by default. This is to prevent instances where users inadvertently ran on the legacy implementation of the DirectX 12 beta.
• Improved how 12th generation Intel CPUs (aka ‘Alder Lake’ family) interact with the game, providing more consistent framerates when running on these processors.
