Shogun Total War 2 appears to use Steamworks

Behold the Steamworks Daimyo!

It was just announced yesterday, and it doesn’t come out until next year, but it seems we already know the system Sega’s next Total War title will be using.

The Steam logo front and center at the bottom of this advertisement for the game definitely looks like an indication that Shogun Total War 2 will be following in the footsteps of the Empire and Napoleon Total War games. Both of those titles used Steamworks for DRM protection and auto updates. While it generally seemed to work quite well, it of course does serve to lock the games to the Steam platform as well.
