Controversial Total War Remaster Being Delisted From Steam After AI Allegations

The Shogun 2 remaster is being temporarily delisted while Sega identifies "the cause of these problems"

Fans of Creative Assembly’s Total War series are used to launch-day issues, but the latest remaster of one of the studio’s most beloved games has crossed a line for many. Players are in an uproar over Total War: Shogun 2 – Complete Edition, which is full of bugs and apparent AI-generated slop.

In response to the overwhelmingly negative feedback, Sega and Creative Assembly are promising to reverse course and remove the new version of the game from storefronts until these problems are fixed. “We’re aware that Total War: Shogun 2 – Complete Edition has fallen short of both your expectations and our own standards,” Sega and Creative Assembly wrote in a statement posted on X. “We agree that the current experience is not where it needs to be. As a result, we are working with platform holders to temporarily remove the game from sale and to reinstate the original game while we investigate the issues.”

Mataboo, a porting-focused company whose previous credits include The Blood of Dawnwalker and Gotham Knights, helped Sega with the remaster. In the statement, Sega explained that it is working closely with its development partner "to identify the causes of these problems, deliver improvements, and ensure Shogun 2 – Complete Edition meets the quality standards players expect from Total War.”

In recent years, Sega has had a nasty habit of replacing some of its older games on digital storefronts with new versions that many fans think are worse.
